Azure CLI to move Azure Arc Guest to Maintenance group

Rick Elder 41

We recently started onboarding Azure Arc Guest servers from AWS via a Service Principal. That all works as expected but when we try to move them into maintenance groups inside of the Update Management Center (Preview), we get an error back:

(InvalidResourceType) The resource type could not be found in the namespace 'Microsoft.HybridCompute' for api version '2  
021-09-01-preview'.  
Code: InvalidResourceType  
Message: The resource type could not be found in the namespace 'Microsoft.HybridCompute' for api version '2021-09-01-pre  
view'.

Is there another resource-type I should be using? I checked this list and couldn't find one that fit for Azure Arc Guest servers. The work around so to manually move them into the correct Maintenace group. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/azure-services-resource-providers

Hi there,

Azure Arc guest server = "Microsoft.HybridCompute"
I assume, this particular scenario isn't supported because it's Preview. Can you create a support ticket on this? PG could take some actions on this after getting a request on this from a support team.

I would, @Maxim Sergeev but I have the basic plan and it has a cost to open a support ticket for a technical issue.

With your Basic support plan, you can create support requests for billing, subscription management, and quota increase.

Hi @Rick Elder ,

Arc scenario is supported in Update Management Center. Am not sure why this error is coming. Can you share which API you are trying to use so it helps us to debug further?

Hi @tbgangav-MSFT , we attempted to use Microsoft.Compute with our Service Principal but got this attached error. We then used Microsfot.HybridCompute and it gave the error in my original post. This is for moving an azure arc guest via the CLI into a Maintenace group in the Update Management Center (Preview). Do you have a suggested way of performing this operation?

Because it's under preview. Literally

@Rick Elder ,

This doesn’t look like a known error message. Can I please request you to share the exact command for which this error is encountered?

Hi @Rick Elder ,

Please use following param for configuration assignment.

Following is correct command

Arc resource (HybridCompute)

az maintenance assignment create --resource-group AWSUpdateMgmt --location eastus --resource-name i-0abd518c9631e9c52 --resource-type machines --provider-name Microsoft.HybridCompute --configuration-assignment-name PatchingConfig --maintenance-configuration-id "/subscriptions/a7d40ff7-d9ce-4b80-916e-d0c6c7bb657d/resourcegroups/AWSUpdateMgmt/providers/Microsoft.Maintenance/maintenanceConfigurations/Playground-WeeklyPatching"

Azure VM.

az maintenance assignment create --resource-group RGName --location eastus --resource-name --resource-type virtualmachines --provider-name Microsoft.Compute --configuration-assignment-name PatchingConfig --maintenance-configuration-id <mrpconfigurationarmId>"
