So my spending limit exceed this weekend which as expected resulted in all my VMs to be deleted. I quickly changed the current billing period to no spending limit (and yesterday my billing period was renewed as well)
After this (from what I hear/read) it should be pretty easy to re-create the VMs based on the existing VHDs. But I have found out this is not easy at all in my situation and currently I haven’t been able to re-created any of them yet.
So far I have done the following:
- Deleted the respective cloud services
- Broke the lease via CloudXplorer
After breaking the lease I can see this reflected on the VHD files themselves in the Portal.But if I look under VMs > Disks or check the VHDs in PowerShell they still appear as assigned/attached to the non-existing VMs.
This of course means that the disks aren’t listed under “Disks” when doing a new quick VM creation.
How is this issue fixed?
Thanks,
Henrik
