Azure VM agent is not able to use existing resource group in different regions

Issue Type:	Bug
Assignee:	Azure DevOps
Components:	azure-vm-agents-plugin
Created:	2019-05-11 09:16
Priority:	Minor
Reporter:	Christian Meyer

We are using a Jenkins hosted in Azure.

Now we have created the first VM agents in west-europe, the resource group is also linked to west-europe.

When we want to create another VM agent within another region e.g. east-us2 we are getting the following message and the VM agent will get not deployed:

{"code":"InvalidResourceGroupLocation","message":"Invalid resource group location 'eastus2'. The Resource group already exists in location 'westeurope'."}

Within the Azure Portal we are able to create in our resource group (west-europe) also VMs, which are hosted in different regions e.g. east-us2.

Could you please help and support us?

Azure VM agent is not able to use existing resource group in different regions

Change By:	Christian Meyer

We are using a Jenkins hosted in Azure.

Now we have created the first VM agents in west-europe, the and reuse an existing resource group which is also linked to west-europe.

When we want to create another VM agent within another region e.g. east-us2 , we are getting the following message and the VM agent will get not deployed:

_ {"code":"InvalidResourceGroupLocation","message":"Invalid resource group location 'eastus2'. The Resource group already exists in location 'westeurope'."} _

It seems that the plugin trys to create a new resource group in each region, but we want to reuse the existing resource group.

Within the Azure Portal we are able to create in our resource group (west-europe) also VMs, which are hosted in different regions e.g. east-us2.

Could you please help and support us?

Re: Azure VM agent is not able to use existing resource group in different regions

How do you configure the template here? Do you choose the Using existing for Resource Group name?

Re: Azure VM agent is not able to use existing resource group in different regions

We are using an existing Resource group within the cloud configuration. And within the same cloud configuration (Microsoft Azure VM Agents) we have added one template for a Windows 10 VM in Europe and another one for a Windows 10 VM in US.

The first template is working fine, but for the second template we are getting the error message, which was mentioned in the ticket.
