VM migrated using Azure Site Recovery missing OSprofile and Azure VM agent

December 9, 2016, 4:25 am

We migrated VM's form Hyper-V VMM using Azure Site Recovery.

The VM's are running fine and I have installed the Azure VM agent MSI. I tried enabling the VM agent using

$vm = Get-AzureRmVM -ResourceGroupName $rg -Name $name $vm.OSProfile.windowsConfiguration.provisionVMAgent = $True Update-AzureRmVM -ResourceGroupName $rg -VM $vm

But I get an error message saying " 'provisionVMAgent' cannot be found on this object. Verify that the property exists and can be set."

When I try to get the OSProfile using

$vm.OSprofile i just get a blank result. It seems this has never been set during migration. How do I set this value and how do I get the Azure VM agent installed and registered?

Trouble with RDP and DNS on Vnet

From @kliemohn via Twitter

"All of a sudden I cannot RDP into or ping many of my #azure VMs in East US. 

I have 8 identical VMs in the EAST US region and for the first time I am unable to ping one of them.  Well, I was unable to ping it for awhile, but now I am able to ping it.  However, I still cannot RDP into it. I get the following error:[Window Title]
Remote Desktop Connection

[Content]
The remote computer that you are trying to connect to requires Network Level Authentication (NLA), but your Windows domain controller cannot be contacted to perform NLA. If you are an administrator on the remote computer, you can disable NLA by using the options on the Remote tab of the System Properties dialog box. 

My domain controller is running (I can RDP into it).  I don't know how to RDP into the VM on the domain subscription. "

Provided customer with documentation: aka.ms/d907221

"You may be on to something, as I was able to remote in via the local account.  Does that also explain why the monitor tab on the dashboard showed no activity for the VM having the issue?  Seems like it does not.  Also, nobody changed the settings on this box.  I'm still trying to figure out how to reconnect it to the proper DNS sever... 

I didn't know how to set the DNS other than to put in the hard-coded IP address of my domain controller in the IPv4 settings. I did that, and after saving it I was kicked off my RDP connection.  I could not reconnect with RDP so I have rebooted.  Hopefully that helps. 

A reboot of the VM let me back in using the local account, but it still acts as if it is not on the same network as the others even though it is according to the Configuration tab on the dashboard.  It cannot ping the other machines based on IP address."

VM placement into fault domain/update domains

Is there a way to find out which update domain/fault domain a new VM will end up into ?

Documentation says it is round robin placement, does that mean it will land up into the domain having least number of VMs ? or will it just place it in the domain next to the one it place last one into.

Is there a way to specify which fault/update domain a VM should end up into ?

Thanks,

AzureRM VM - FTP - Error: "Illegal PORT command"

Hello,

I am trying to connect from VM (RM subscription) to FTP and receive error "Illegal PORT command". I have some special FTP software and doesn't have option to change passive/active transfer mode. But, I suppose that the problem is caused by IP forwarding. 

FileZilla wizard test shows next log:

Connecting to probe.filezilla-project.org
Connection established, waiting for welcome message.
Response: 220 FZ router and firewall tester ready
USER FileZilla
Response: 331 Give any password.
PASS 3.23.0.2
Response: 230 logged on.
Checking for correct external IP address
IP 10.0.0.4 ba-a-a-e
Response: 510 Mismatch. Your IP is 52.160.***.***, fc-bga-ji-h
Wrong external IP address
Connection closed

In the log you can find local IP address 10.0.0.4. instead of public.

Does any possibilities to setup ip forwarding (or another solution) to use FTP on AzureVM?

Connect button not available & IP address blanked out

Hi,

I am a co-admin of our subscription and have no problem using the connect button in the portal or viewing the ip address properties (in the portal).

I have a group of users who have been assigned the owner rbac role for the VM, however, they are unable to see the connect button and unable to view the ip address properties in the portal. The can rdp on to the VM using the ip address (using local user accounts), however, the ip address is dynamic and they have to be informed of the new address when it changes. We want to keep the ip address as dynamic.

How can I give the users access to view the ip address info in the portal or make the connect button available for them?

Thanks,


Andy.

Hi,

I'd like to allocate a VM running Ubuntu with GPU support and Tensorflow on Azure. I've tried allocating an N-series VM in the South US DC using my trial subscription, but didn't see the N-series option available (only saw F and D series).

Has anyone had experience with this?

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I'm using Visual Studio to execute an ARM deployment to a Visual Studio MSDN Azure subscription.

The deployment contains some basic components: Storage Account, VNet, PIP, VMs, NSGs.

But an error occours with the following description:

"error": {
    "code": "SkuNotAvailable",
    "message": "The requested tier for resource '/subscriptions/a9b3634d-78af-4a00-a691-4cb27617a9e3/resourceGroups/WrappersRG/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/Wrappers0' is currently not available in location 'northeurope' for subscription 'a9b3634d-78af-4a00-a691-4cb27617a9e3'. Please try another tier or deploy to a different location."
  }

Also trying to create a VM through Azure Portal is not possible in the North Europe region.

Can you please take a look at this issue?

Thanks in advance

ARM template - pass SecureString parameter to custom PowerShell script via the Azure CustomScriptExtension

December 19, 2016, 4:30 pm
$
0
0

As common as this scenario seems, it appears it is either not possible or not documented anywhere obvious. I have a custom script I would like to run on a VM that requires a SecureString paramter (I could potentially update to PSCredential if it makes it any easier).

The ARM JSON template uses a parameter of type "securestring". I want to pass this value as a parameter to my custom script while keeping it secure and ideally not having to change to "string". This appears common if you are using the DSC extension via the "protectedSettings" and "PrivateSettingsRef" concept. See the following links:

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/brian_farnhill/2015/08/19/deploying-the-azure-dsc-extension-through-arm

https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/privatecloud/2016/06/29/arm-concepts-in-azure-stack-for-the-wap-administrator-in-guest-configuration-with-arm-and-technologies-such-as-virtual-machines-extensions-including-powershell-desired-state-configuration-d

However, if you are using just the CustomScriptExtension it does not appear to support the use of the "PrivateSettingsRef" concept. Also, because you are forced to call powershell.exe yourself in the "commandToExecute" (rather than have the extension smart enough to natively be aware of PowerShell), you are forced to serialise all parameters (including passwords) out to primitive strings. E.g. 'powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File -myPassword "xxxx"'

What is the recommended way of performing this task? Am I better off converting the script to a DSC configuration so I can use the more advanced DSC extension? Are there any plans to make the CustomScriptExtension PowerShell aware?

Cheers

Good afternoon all,

We are currently checking to deploy XenApp on Azure. Now I'm pretty new and i'd like to have some information so we know what costs we will get;

Question 1: Dv2 series: I see they have an SSD (temporary?) disk. Does this mean i need an extra SSD disk? How does this work.

Question 2: What costs can we expect when deploying a new infrastructure? I know some of the costs are: VM's pricing, CALS, XenApp license, VNET data per GB, Bandwidth per GB, Antivirus, Firewall. Are there any more costs?

Thanks in advance for your help !

Hello, i set up a VM using the "Informatica PowerCenter Standard Edition" image.  Does anyone know the default username and password for the admin console?  It should be documented as part of the install, but since the image comes prebuilt I don't know what to use.

This is for the admin site on the vm at:

http://localhost:6008/administrator/

hi,

Is there a provision to buy only SSL certificate from Azure and apply the same to a VM in Azure? Or i have to procure it only from other CAs ? I am aware for app services SSL can be bought separately from Azure, however, would like to understand if i can also buy SSL for an application running inside a VM.

Creating a VM using December 2016 image fails with "New-AzureVM : InternalError: The server encountered an internal error. Please retry the request." -- but works with November 2016 image

December 19, 2016, 5:21 am

On Friday, I attempted to create a new virtual machine using New-AzureVM (via a PowerShell script that I've successfully used numerous times in the past -- notably as recently as October 8th).

However, an error similar to the following occurred:

New-AzureVM : InternalError: The server encountered an internal error. Please retry the request.
OperationID : '73a44dexxxxxxxxx5f0b793dcxxx'
At line:60 char:1+ New-AzureVM `+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~+ CategoryInfo          : CloseError: (:) [New-AzureVM], ComputeCloudException+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Commands.ServiceManagement.IaaS.PersistentVMs.NewAzureVMCommand

I managed to reduce the repro steps to the following script:

Add-AzureAccount

Function GetRandomMachineName([String] $prefix)
{
    $name = [System.IO.Path]::GetRandomFileName()

    $name = $name.ToUpper()

    $name = [System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($name)

    If ([String]::IsNullOrWhiteSpace($name) -eq $false)
    {
        $name = $prefix + $name
    }

    return $name
}

$imageName = "a699494373c04fc0bc8f2bb1389d6106__Windows-Server-2012-R2" `+ "-20161214-en.us-127GB.vhd"

$subscriptionId = "TODO: Specify a subscription ID here"
$storageAccount = "TODO: Specify a storage account here"
$location = "West US"
$vmName = GetRandomMachineName "VM-"
$cloudService = $vmName
$instanceSize = "Basic_A0"
$vhdPath = "https://$storageAccount.blob.core.windows.net/vhds/$vmName"

If ($localAdminCred -eq $null)
{
    $localAdminCred = Get-Credential `
        -UserName foo `
        -Message ("Type the user name and password for the local" `+ " administrator account.")
}

$localAdminUserName = $localAdminCred.UserName
$localAdminPassword = [Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto(
	[Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR(
		$localAdminCred.Password))

$vmConfig = New-AzureVMConfig `
    -Name $vmName `
    -ImageName $imageName `
    -InstanceSize $instanceSize `
    -MediaLocation ($vhdPath + "/$vmName.vhd") |
    Add-AzureProvisioningConfig `
        -AdminUsername $localAdminUserName `
        -Password $localAdminPassword `
        -Windows

Set-AzureSubscription `
    -SubscriptionId $subscriptionId `
    -CurrentStorageAccountName $storageAccount

New-AzureVM `
    -ServiceName $cloudService `
    -Location $location `
    -VMs $vmConfig

I ran the script above numerous times and the error occurred every time.

If you switch to using the November 2016 image (instead of the December 2016 image):

$imageName = "a699494373c04fc0bc8f2bb1389d6106__Windows-Server-2012-R2" `+ "-20161109-en.us-127GB.vhd"

...then the VM is created successfully.

This seems like a transient issue, and therefore I expected the issue to be resolved by waiting a few days, but I tried the original script again this morning (3 days later) and the error still occurs.
