I had created a storage account then in setting I changed the redundancy to GRS. now I wanna to delete this storage account but I can't and I faced with this error "Failed to delete storage account 'navidstorage1260'. Error: An operation is currently performing on this storage account that requires exclusive access." Also in the redundancy setting I have this notification "Failover cannot be initiated because initial data syncronization from primary to secondary region is in progress"

    Hi @Navid Darvish Beigi ,

    if you modify a Storage Account from LRS to GRS it means a copy of the Storage account will be created and synced in a second Azure region. It looks like the synchronization is still in progress and is blocking the deletion of the Storage Account. This means you have to wait until the sync of the GRS Storage Account finished before you can delete the Storage Account.
