Pool provisioning DSC Extension error ... again
Hi -
Is anyone seeing the dreaded DSC Extension error upon provisioning new pools today? I have one pool working fine - and have run into this three times in a row with a brand new pool deployment attempt. Error on last step:
{"code":"DeploymentFailed","message":"At least one resource deployment operation failed. Please list deployment operations for details. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-debug for usage details.","details":[{"code":"Conflict","message":"{\r\n \"status\": \"Failed\",\r\n \"error\": {\r\n \"code\": \"ResourceDeploymentFailure\",\r\n \"message\": \"The resource operation completed with terminal provisioning state 'Failed'.\",\r\n \"details\": [\r\n {\r\n \"code\": \"VMExtensionProvisioningError\",\r\n \"message\": \"VM has reported a failure when processing extension 'dscextension'. Error message: \\\"The DSC Extension failed to execute: Error downloading https://catalogartifact.azureedge.net/publicartifacts/rds.wvd-provision-host-pool-8f893fe9-5016-43c6-82f8-c2d794f3917b-preview/Artifacts/DSC/Configuration.zip after 29 attempts: Unable to connect to the remote server.\\nMore information about the failure can be found in the logs located under 'C:\\\\WindowsAzure\\\\Logs\\\\Plugins\\\\Microsoft.Powershell.DSC\\\\2.77.0.0' on the VM.\\\".\"\r\n }\r\n ]\r\n }\r\n}"}]}

This is happening to me in two different tenants using ARM with Windows 10 Multi user with Office 365.
Prod Tenant: I have an Express route and we use South Central Us. This keeps failing every time even when I follow well known steps from my lab.
Lab Tenant:t: South Central US was causing the Error and East US was not (same steps). This has been happening since Friday... until about an hour ago. Now I can create in South Central US in the lab.
I am still unable to do so in my Prod tenant. Something is going on seemingly with the Azure backed.

I'm kind of back to square one. Last step - DSC Extension piece - provisioning attempts to download a zip file from catalogartifacts.azureedge.net 29 times and then finally fails.
The sad thing is I can literally take the full URL path to the zip that's reported in the error, open a new browser tab, enter the URL and display the contents of the zip.....what is going on with this?
One more comment here. I just tried a new pool, in a different subscription (bound to a different geographical region).
This pool succeeded on first attempt (UK South). I immediately tried another pool in a subscription that is bound to US East - it fails with the DSCExtension (all my other attempts in the last two days have been in that US East sub....).
