Azure VM, i can't activate "Just-in-time" -> permissions problems

Question

Hello,

When i want activate "Just-in-time" on my Azure VM, i have permission reject

"You do not have permissions to enable just-in-time access for 'VMCominOptique'. Contact the subscription owner to get permissions."

So, i am the Owner of the subscription.

I tried with a co-admin account who meet the same problem.

Hi

can you check that all Prerequisites have been met as per article below:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/just-in-time-access-usage#prerequisites?wt.mc_id=AZ-MVP-5005255

Do you have Defender for Servers P2 enabled in the Subscription?

The "Owner" role doesn't have unlimited access to perform all tasks, but does have the ability to assign roles and permissions to others:

Hope this helps,

Thanks
