Hi all,
I'm currently deploying a HCI cluster. the first time I deployed it, the network drivers and TPM module were missing. so after fixing those I deleted everythhing and started over again. but this time I have a new error.
This time at the Networking tab, under "Provide intent details" I have the following error
"The selected physical network adapter os not binded to the management virtual switch"
I have already checked on the two nodes, there is no switch, and I believe the error is incorrect, because the deployment of the cluster will create that intent.
Thanks in advance !
Regards
Che

2024-08-22T10:36:39.0433333+00:00 I opend a Support case for that, The solution was, to unregister the Node in azure Arc using the follwing Command ->
Remove-AzStackHciArcInitialization -SubscriptionID $Subscription -ResourceGroup $RG -TenantID $Tenant -Cloud AzureCloud -ArmAccessToken $ARMtoken -AccountID $id
Reboot the Hosts and Register it again. This worked for me

to unregister us the following command
Remove-AzStackHciArcInitialization -SubscriptionID $Subscription -ResourceGroup $RG -TenantID $Tenant -Cloud AzureCloud -ArmAccessToken $ARMtoken -AccountID $id

Based on your response. the selected physical network adapter is not binded to the management virtual switch.
Please find the troubleshoot documentation for your reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure-stack/hci/manage/troubleshoot-deployment
Thank you.

2024-08-26T14:27:31.2533333+00:00 Remove-AzStackHciArcInitialization indeed did the trick.
I have a different error now :-) regarding switchname, while I specifically did not chose a switch,...
Type 'InvokeEnvironmentChecker' of Role 'DeploymentService' raised an exception: System.Management.Automation.RuntimeException: Fail to initialize cloud deployment: Cannot validate argument on parameter 'SwitchName'. The argument is null or empty. Provide an argument that is not null or empty, and then try the command again.

Thanks for getting back with the detailed explanation. This issue needs deeper investigation and Azure technical support team will be able to help with this. I would recommend you open an azure support case. If you don't have the ability to open a technical support ticket, please let me know and I can help you further with this.

Error:

The argument is null or empty. Provide an argument that is not null or empty, and then try the command again.
