were is the correct placement of the option upgrade_policy_mode = “Manual” Within the azurerm_windows_virtual_machine_scale_set resource
Ive complied the following resource options
resource "azurerm_windows_virtual_machine_scale_set" "example" {
name = "example-vmss"
resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.example.name
location = azurerm_resource_group.example.location
sku = "Standard_B1s"
instances = 1
admin_password = "RandonPassword12345!"
admin_username = "adminusername"
computer_name_prefix = "Win2016"
enable_automatic_updates = true
upgrade_policy_mode = "Manual"
source_image_reference {
publisher = "MicrosoftWindowsServer"
offer = "WindowsServer"
sku = "2016-Datacenter"
version = "latest"
}
os_disk {
storage_account_type = "Standard_LRS"
caching = "ReadWrite"
}
network_interface {
name = "example"
primary = true
ip_configuration {
name = "internal"
primary = true
subnet_id = azurerm_subnet.internal.id
}
}
}
And keep getting the following error
An argument named “Upgrade_Policy_Mode” is not expected here.
where does it go?
Hi @GaryTrembath,
I’m not very familiar with these Azure features in particular, but referring to the docs it seems like upgrade_policy_mode
is an argument of azurerm_virtual_machine_scale_set
, not of azurerm_windows_virtual_machine_scale_set
.
On the page about the Windows-specific resource type I see that there is an argument called upgrade_policy
which seems to take similar values. I’m not familiar enough with this provider to say for certain that they are related, but hopefully there’s a solution here using upgrade_policy
instead.
Hi,
iam facing similar error while supplying upgrade_mode = “rolling” and getting error
Error: Error creating Windows Virtual Machine Scale Set “WebWvmss1” (Resource Group “v100-rg”): compute.VirtualMachineScaleSetsClient#CreateOrUpdate: Failure sending request: StatusCode=400 – Original Error: Code=“InvalidRequestFormat” Message=“Cannot parse the request.” Details=[{“code”:“InvalidJsonReferenceFormat”,“message”:“Reference Id /subscriptions/1c37ebe3-2c26-4571-a01f-fd2ad4831225/resourceGroups/v100-rg/providers/Microsoft.Network/applicationGateways/v100appgw/probe/v100-gw-probe is not formatted correctly.

iam trying to point App gateway to VMSS
resource “azurerm_windows_virtual_machine_scale_set” “test_VMSS” {
name = “Wvmss1”
resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.test.name

zone_balance = true
upgrade_mode = “Rolling”
health_probe_id = ["${azurerm_application_gateway.test_application_gateway.id}/probe/test-gw-probe"]
can someone please help me 
just to add, works fine with upgrade_mode set to manual since health_probe_id not needed.
but facing error while changing upgrade_mode to Rolling
