Azure Service Fabric ARM template Provisioning Failed

1
votes

I have a script that facilitates an ARM template to provision an Azure Service Fabric cluster (official windows servers) among other dependencies like storage and such. I do not provision through the portal.

Facts:

  1. Two days ago, I used this script to provision the cluster with complete success.

  2. I tried the same again yesterday, and the provisioning failed (with the error below).

  3. just to reassure you that the provisioning script works, I can successfully provision with this script on other subscription and it constantly and reliably succeeds.

The error:

Resource Microsoft.Insights/autoscaleSettings '1NodeVMSetAutoScale' failed with message 'The metric with namespace '' and name '\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time' is not supported for this resource id '/subscriptions/----/resourceGroups/-cluster/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachineScaleSets/1'.' 8:10:01 PM - Resource Microsoft.Insights/autoscaleSettings '2NodeVMSetAutoScale' failed with message 'The metric with namespace '' and name '\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time' is not supported for this resource id '/subscriptions/----/resourceGroups/cluster/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachineScaleSets/2'.' 8:10:01 PM - "Template output evaluation skipped: at least one resource deployment operation failed. Please list deployment operations for details. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-debug for usage details." 'string' does not contain a definition for 'error'

My question is why? What could be the reason for it not to consistently succeed? Can you please help with troubleshooting steps?

Can you compare your template with this one and see if there's a difference? azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/… chapter (bullet point 11 uses the same Perf counter) – LoekD
@LoekD thanks for the tip. I will try to compare and let u know if there is a difference. I added more info to my question. Taking the additional info into account, I wonder if you have any other suggestions? – Rotem Varon

2 questions:

1) what region are you deploying in?

2) In the new subscription, can you check what resource providers you have registered, and in what regions? In the CLI, the commands look like:

azure config mode arm
azure provider list
azure provider show  Microsoft.Insights

I faced the same issue since a week in my subscriptions. The way out was to make changes to the Diagnostic configurations, by adding the counter "\Processor(_Total)\% Processor Time" under the waddiagnostic performace counters section. You can also take sneak peak here were autoscale is discussed: Service Fabric Autoscale

Please share your template/ part of it to analyse further.
