Unable to create Shared Azure Compute Gallery

Unable to create Shared Azure Compute Gallery

Luis 31

Hello, I am trying to create a Shared Azure Compute Gallery however the option "RBAC + share directly (Preview)" is not available for selection. The following errors are showing: "This subscription is not registered with the feature Microsoft.Compute/DirectSharedGalleries. Please register the subscription to directly share galleries across subscriptions and tenants." and "This subscription is not registered with the feature Microsoft.Compute/CommunityGalleries. Please register the subscription for sharing to public community gallery." The subscription is already registered with Microsoft.Compute.

Adding to lukemurraynz response above, If your subscription is already registered with Microsoft.Compute, but you are still encountering issues when trying to create a shared Azure Compute Gallery, here are a few other things you can try:

Make sure that you have the necessary permissions to create a shared gallery. You will need to be the owner of the subscription or have the "User Access Administrator" role in order to create a shared gallery.

Check to see if the "RBAC + share directly (Preview)" option is available in other subscriptions or resource groups within your Azure account. If it is available in some but not others, it could be due to a permissions issue.

If you are still unable to create a shared gallery, you may want to try creating a standard gallery instead. Standard galleries are not shared across subscriptions or tenants, but they may still meet your needs.

Hope this helps.

Hi @vipullag-MSFT I have this same issue. I do have the "Owner" and "User Access Administrator" roles for this subscription. Microsoft.Compute is registered. I only have 1 subscription, but I get the same error on other resource groups when trying to create a gallery.

Try the recommendation from @ntrogh

"Assigning the Owner role on the Azure compute gallery to the Azure Lab Services service principals should solve the problem"

Open the Subscription > Resource Provider tab and find and register the required resource provider

Look for: Galleries

You will need Owner access to the subscription to register this.

Ok - it looks like you might be trying to use a shared image feature - which is in Preview: Share images using a community gallery (https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machines/share-gallery-community?tabs=cli&WT.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5004796)

This provider will need to be enabled by Microsoft: To publish a community gallery, you need to register for the preview at https://aka.ms/communitygallery-preview. We will follow up within 5 business days after submitting the form. Creating VMs from the community gallery is open to all Azure users.

During the preview, the gallery must be created as a community gallery (for CLI, this means using the --permissions community parameter) you currently can't migrate a regular gallery to a community gallery.

@Luke Murray , I don't want to publish to a "community shared public community gallery" but rather to "share directly". The warning states that the sub is not registered for "Microsoft.Compute/DirectSharedGalleries". However, "Microsoft.Compute" is registered, but "DirectSharedGalleries" doesn't even show.

Ah, there is a slightly different form to fill in - https://aka.ms/directsharedgallery-preview
