Hello @Paula ,
UPDATE: This issue has been resolved via offline communication.
A hotfix is deployed to fix this issue.
@Paula has confirmed, I was able to start my SSIS-IR in approximately 2 minutes today!
----------------------
By design (it takes 20-30 min) to start an SSIS IR in the VNET. This is because the underlying nodes/Virtual Machines (VMs) would have to be created and prepared just in time from scratch, leading to the prolonged 20-30 minutes duration.
You can use Express custom setup
provisioning can support all SSIS IRs outside a Virtual Network (VNet), with or without custom setups that can be configured following this documentation. Due to current technical limitations, standby VMs cannot be leveraged to shorten the provisioning time of SSIS IRs joining/inside a VNet.
Reference: Express Provisioning of Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime
Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.
