迁移VSTS账户到香港节点(East Asia Region)

2018-02-06

简介

Visual Studio Team System简称VSTS,是微软提供的在线项目管理系统。与GitHub相比好处是5人以下的团队可以免费创建私有仓库。之前创建账号时服务节点都在国外,访问速度非常慢。2017年11月微软技术大会上,来自微软研发部门的全球副总裁潘正磊女士宣布了一则重磅消息,微软研发云VSTS将于2017年底前落地中国香港。本文就是讲解如何将账号从其它节点迁移到香港(East Asia Region)。

把账号迁移到East Asia Region操作步骤这篇文章有详细讲解,但是需要科学上网才能访问。这里把我的操作过程再写一遍,方便大家阅读。

操作步骤

检查现在所在Region

访问 https://{你的VSTS账号}.visualstudio.com/_admin/_home/settings,检查自己现在所处的Region。


我现在的区域是North Central US,这个信息记下来后面还要用到。

通过Visual Studio Team Services 支持修改Region

  1. 访问 https://www.visualstudio.com/zh-hans/team-services/support

  2. 选择 Technical Support后进入Basic Support

  3. Problem type 选择Configuring Team Services,Category选择Changing account region

  4. 登记个人信息
    如果你已经登录了VSTS,这一步的信息大部分会自动填上。从后续收到的邮件发件人信息来看,支持处理人应该能够使用中文,所以Alternate language这项选择None,后续填写的内容就可以使用中文。

  5. 填写工单描述
    工单内容你可以尝试写中文,我是参考引文填写的英文描述。
    填写的内容如下:

    • Incident title:Would like to change the account region
    • What is your Visual Studio Team Services URL:填写你的vsts地址,例如:scfido.visualstudio.com
    • Problem Description:I would like to change the region to East Asia Thank you
    • What is the exact text of any error messages that you receive?:I would like to change the region to East Asia Thank you
      这步提交以后就会收到一封email确认信息,大约一小时人工处理后收到第二封邮件。

:如果你有多个账号,需要每个账号提交一个工单。

  1. 回复邮件
    按照邮件原文回复5个问题。

    1.What is the current region where the VSTS account resides (for example, United States)?
    North Central US

注:这个问题的答案就是最开始查看账户当前所在的Region,所以不要照搬我答案。

2.What is the target region where the VSTS account should be migrated (for example, East Asia)? Currently the supported region are listed as below:
East Asia

3.Some downtime will be required to complete the migration (~5 hrs). As such, please provide a good date and time (in UTC) during which the migration can occur. For example, any night between 18:00 - 06:00 UTC, or anytime on weekends. Please allow us the 2-3 days of pre-work, before the date you hope the move to happen, thanks a lot for your understanding.
Anytime

注:迁移时间大约耗时5小时,你要确定什么时间点迁移不影响使用。我的VSTS暂时没用,所以回复Anytime。

4.Please explain the reason for this request; was the desired region not available at the time you created your account? Was your account created in an unexpected region?
East Asia was not available by the time I sign up.

5.Do you use the hosted XAML build controller (important)?
No

  1. 完成,等待系统帮你迁移吧。

根据客服反馈的邮件来看,确实是可以直接使用中文提交。
