Worker VM Fails due Tagging Policy

Post by odurasler »

I have a customer that has a tagging policy for all resources being stood up. Because of this, the worker VM fails to deploy and therefore the backup fails. Other than changing a global policy (which the customer will never do), are there any workarounds to this issue?

Thanks in advanced!

Hi! You can assign custom tags to all deployed worker instances using the REST API. We are working on adding this feature to the UI in the next release.

Thanks for that reply.

Your suggestion is great but this assumes you already have a worker that is fully deployed? I think my scenario is that the worker doesn't get fully deployed due to policy set (i.e. "EnforcementofTags). Perhaps a workaround is to disable the tagging policy in Azure, create backup jobs, perform backup so that workers get deployed, apply tagging to worker, and then re-enabling the Tag policy in Azure?

No, this proposed solution exactly matches your scenario. You can define a tag that will be assigned to a worker each time a new worker instance is deployed. Thanks!
