May 17, 2008 To generate a 50MB file, Dummy File Creator will write 4MB data chunk 12 times and a 2MB chunk once to complete the task. In most cases, this behavior is unnoticeable. However, for people who would like to fill a disk drive with a larger-than-capacity dummy file. Dummy File Creator will try to fill the drive with closest size in 4MB increment.
Step 3: Create a VNet data gateway. A Microsoft Power Platform user enables the subnet for use in Microsoft Power Platform and creates a VNet data gateway. By doing this, the user authorizes the Microsoft Power Platform VNet service to inject containers into the subnet.

Creating a virtual network (VNet) data gateway is a 3-step process:
Note
Before creating a VNet data gateway, check that the feature is supported in your region.
Step 1: Register Microsoft.PowerPlatform as a resource Provider
On the Azure portal, sign in as a subscription owner and register Microsoft.PowerPlatform as a resource provider for the subscription that contains the VNet. This enables your subscription to work with this resource provider.
Sign in to the Azure portal.
Navigate to the specific subscription.
Select Resource Providers.
Search for Microsoft.PowerPlatform, and select Register.
Step 2: Associate the subnet to Microsoft Power Platform
A user in a role with the Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/subnets/join/action permission on the VNet like the Azure Network Contributor role can delegate the subnet within the same VNet to Microsoft Power Platform. Subnet delegation enables you to designate a specific subnet for an Azure PaaS service of your choice that needs to be injected into your virtual network.
This subnet should have connectivity to the data service.
Sign in to the Azure portal.
Add a new subnet in the VNet. This new subnet cannot be shared with other services but will be used entirely by the Power Platform VNet service.
Note
Don’t use the subnet name, “gatewaysubnet”, as this is a reserved word for the Azure Gateway Subnet feature. You will not be able to use it to create a VNet data gateway in Step 3.
Select Resource Providers.
Select Microsoft.PowerPlatform/vnetaccesslinks from the subnet delegation drop-down list.
Select Save.
Step 3: Create a VNet data gateway
A Microsoft Power Platform user enables the subnet for use in Microsoft Power Platform and creates a VNet data gateway. By doing this, the user authorizes the Microsoft Power Platform VNet service to inject containers into the subnet. The user also needs to have the Azure Network Contributor role in the subscription to be able to perform this action.
Sign in to the Power Platform admin center.
In the left navigation pane, select Data (preview).
Select Virtual network (VNet) data gateway > New.
Select the subscription, resource group, VNet and the Subnet. You will only see subnets that are delegated to Microsoft Power Platform in the drop-down list.
By default, we provide a unique name for this data gateway, but you could optionally update it.

Select Save. You will now see this VNet data gateway in your Virtual network data gateways tab.Note that a VNet data gateway is a managed gateway which could be used for controlling access to this resource for Power platform users.
Regions supported for VNet data gateways
Your Azure VNet region needs to be in one of the following regions for you to be able to create a virtual Network (VNet) data Gateway:
