When you try to drop the Site to Site VPN connection from
your data centre to the Azure cloud, it hangs for 30-40 minutes stating
“Disconnecting local site….”. It normally only takes a couple of minutes to
complete.
The disconnect was performed using the Preview Portal. The
only way to force the disconnect is to use PowerShell.
|
Set-AzureVNetGateway –Disconnect –VNetName networkname
–LocalNetworkSiteName sitename
|
You must do this from an Administrative Azure Powershell
prompt. You can authenticate to the tenancy using the;
Get-AzurePublishSettingsFile
and Import-AzurePublishSettingsFile
Azure VM Provisioning Hangs “Creating Windows Server 2012 R2
Datacenter” for 1+ Hour
When you provision a new Windows Server 2012 R2 it hangs at
the creating VM stage. It sits on “Creating Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter”
for over an hours.
The following command can be used to force the VM
provisioning to be stopped. The –Force switch de-provisions the VM therefore
the IP’s etc is released.
