Azure Automation job gets suspended about ari HOT 10 CLOSED

Hello @Claudio-Merola , the new script worked better than the previous one. I still see error messages in the job section, this makes me wonder did it pull out all the resources?

Few of the messages from the Job streams:

InvalidOperation: Line | 45 | $VNET = $data.virtualNetworkSubnetId.split("/")[8] | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.

InvalidOperation: Line | 46 | $SUBNET = $data.virtualNetworkSubnetId.split("/")[10] | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.

Remove-Variable: Line | 174 | … Remove-Variable PIP, vmnic, vmnsg, VNET, Subnet | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Cannot find a variable with the name 'PIP'.

InvalidOperation: Line | 121 | … $PIP = $vmnic.properties.ipConfigurations.properties.publ … | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.
Is there something I am doing differently?

Hello,

The Automation Account method is outdated, we are working on a newer version.

To be honest I'm surprised it worked that far.

Do you have App Services in your environment? By the error message I believe it is complaining by empty values in that resource.

Hello,

Yes, we indeed have quite a few App Services running in our environment. How do I go around this error message? Could you please advise?

Hello @Sabrthor,

Can you try the new automation account method we release in the version 3.0?

Thanks

Hi @Sabrthor

Last week I fixed a bug in the script that might have relation with your issue.

Can you try the updated version of the Automation Script and see how it goes?

Thanks

Hi @Claudio-Merola,

Unfortunately, this still hasn't been solved.

I have done following:

1. Reinstalled all the required modules with Runtime 7.2.
2. Ensured the Automation Account has Reader permissions from the Management Group.
3. Ensured the Automation Account has Storage Blob Data Contributor permissions to the Storage Account.

When I ran the automation, the output still shows bunch of errors.

What I could not believe is the difference in the resource list.

The spreadsheet shows a total resource count of 13004, whereas, I have about ~27k varied resources.

The same spreadsheet overview page says, I have 786 Virtual Machines in the Overview page:

The Virtual Machine sheet shows ~1400 machines:

In the output of the Automation script, it says ~2200 VMs:

While in reality, I have 1894 VMs. And this is just not limited to VMs, but almost any resource type (such as Virtual Network).

What I also observe is the Subscription list in the last sheet is completely wrong. I have about 40+ subscriptions and the sheet shows 24.

Hi @Sabrthor ,

The Excel sheet will present more VMs, because of the extra resources, like VMs with more than 1 NIC, or the extensions, so is expected to have more lines. But the script should present the correct number of VMs...

I have updated the script some time ago with an extra option at the line 95, can you change the: $RunDebug to $true? So we can have some more details of might be going on.
