Azure Stack HCI 23H2 deployment

Mubarish Ahmed A 25

Hi,

I have attempted to perform the Single Node AzsHci cluster deployment using 23H2. I have completed the prerequisite steps as presented in the Microsoft document and registered the host in Azure as well. While creating the cluster from the Azure portal, in the validation steps I'm getting the below error message from the Environment checker validation. Can you please guide me on this? Is this related to Active Directory credentials?

Hello Mubarish Ahmed A

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform, thanks for posting your query here.

Based on the details shared, the error message shows that the Local administrator credentials entered in the Portal is not valid to access the cluster node. Please check if this local user is created on that node. Please also ensure the Domain Account entered in the Portal is also valid. If both are valid and matching with the AD user and Local user on the node then you should not see this error.

Hope this helps.

Hello Mubarish Ahmed A

Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding here and any inconvenience this issue may have caused. Based on the details shared, there might be some permissions for managed identity and app authentication missing via Entra.

This issue needs deeper investigation. Support team will be able to check and help on this. I would recommend you to open a azure support case.
