Insufficient error information when using the ARM templates deployment
Use of the ARM template to deploy the ARO cluster may lead to hard to debug error conditions:
-
Supplying already existing Resource Group at Aro_resource_group will result in "Internal Server Error" during deployment after about 1 minute of deployment. Using
az aro create ...CLI will return immediately with clear error message:Invalid --cluster-resource-group 'xxxxxxx': resource group must not exist. -
Provision of the wrong client_id (but in the correct uuid form) with failure after about 10,5 minutes into deployment with the same "Internal Server Error". CLI command will return:
Insufficient privileges to complete the operation. -
Attempt to re-deploy the template with the slightest modification (tested by adding a new tag) will result in the failed deployment and error stating that it's not allowed to change the RG for deployment. Evidently, I did not try to do it. It's not possible to use recover the deployment afterward - it will remain in the failed state.
IMHO, ARM way of deploying the ARO clusters is not ready for production use.
