Azure Linux Reset password fails with ParentResourceNotFound

103 Views Asked by At

I am trying to reset a password in the Azure portal for a Linux VM and I'm getting the error: ParentResourceNotFound. No extensions, like VMAccessForLinux, are shown as installed but I know I was able to do this in the past when there weren't any. So I'm not sure the lack of listed extensions should be a roadblocker here.

This is ARM deployment, not ASM. Redhat 7.8

ErrorCode: ParentResourceNotFound Message: Can not perform requested operation on nested resource. Parent resource 'xxxxxxxx' not found.

Any ideas? Thanks!

So I'm not sure how this relates to a parent resource not being found, but what I did to solve my problem was this.

I tried to see if I could even load the Serial Console. It gave an error that to run serial console boot diagnostics needed a custom storage account. So I went to boot diagnostics -> settings -> Enable with custom storage account -> Save.

After that the serial console would load and also the reset password feature seems to be working.
