    Please run following command to check operations on specific resource.

    Get-AzResource -ResourceId /subscriptions/{subscription-id}/resourceGroups/{resource-group}/providers/{resource-provider}/{resource-type}/{resource-name} | Select -Property ProvisioningState

    If you know that an operation should not be in progress, or if it has stalled, you might have the option to cancel it:

    Using Azure Portal:

    • Navigate to the specific resource in the Azure Portal.
    • Check for any options to cancel ongoing operations, typically available under the Overview or specific settings for that resource type.

    @RP

    Thank you for reaching out.

    I understand you are facing issue while deleting your Azure VPN Gateway as it is stuck in the provisioning state.

    Usually when a resourse is stuck in provisioning state a GET-SET command can help resolve the issue. You can try running the PowerShell commands mentioned below and see if it helps in resolving the issue (A customer here found this solution and they were able delete the VPN Gateway)

    Run the command below to set the AdminState:

    $Gateway = Get-AzVirtualNetworkGateway -ResourceGroupName RGName -Name GatewayName

Set-AzVirtualNetworkGateway -VirtualNetworkGateway $Gateway -adminstate enabled

    After the command above is successful you can run the Get-Set commands below and see if that helps.

    Get-AzVirtualNetworkGateway -ResourceGroupName RGName -Name GtwName | Set-AzVirtualNetworkGateway

    After this you can try and delete the VPN Gateway.

    Remove-AzVirtualNetworkGateway -Name GtwName -ResourceGroupName RGName

    Even after following the steps above, you are unable to delete the VPN Gateway, a support request will be required to delete the resource. Please follow the instructions in the private message I will make here shortly to create a support request.

    Hoper this helps!
