Hi All,

Long story short, got an issue with our VMs across the world having this issue. We’ve been through MS Support, but they had no idea how to fix it. Went through 8 (I’m not joking) engineers and they repeated the same 3 steps, requested the same info and didn’t get anywhere at all.

For some reason, the VMs just refuse to license. Other VMs on some of these NSGs etc, are completely fine. Some, are not. You can connect to the kms DNS that MS use, you can ping it etc, we even tried other keys from MS to license and they still didn’t work.

Has anyone else heard of this issue before? Speaking with some of my Azure buddies, they’ve experienced it before but can’t remember the fix. There is no DENY rules set to block the KMS, we even removed our DENY rules and still couldn’t activate.
