Description

This issue is specific for Azure ARM.

New VM based on RHEL 8 "gold" image on MS Marketplace can be easily started. However in case I create new custom image from modified VM (installing some application and making changes to firewall) and try to start again then it fails because "Plan Information" was not provided. Basically when new VM is started from this image publisher/offer/sku is required.

As the new image is custom there is no way how to pass publisher/offer/sku properties to JClouds when creating new VM.

Failure message:

Provisioning state Provisioning failed.
Creating a virtual machine from Marketplace image or a custom image sourced from a Marketplace image requires Plan information in the request. VM: '/subscriptions/7dee6f21-9f05-414e-99fa-08d3215fb420/resourceGroups/eap73-rhel8-byos/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/sst-mnovak-138'..
