Cannot create hostpool (or any other ARM WVD 'resource') - Validation failed

Here is a screenshot of each tab.. it doesnt matter if i only try to create the host pool or also VM/workspace in the wizard, it fails regardless without telling it fails.

Raaert I will investigate in my lab to see if can recreate failure; be sure to check AD setup and Connectivity such as custom dns set on the VNET so can find Domain Controllers, the domain join account you are using has the correct credentials and permissons. 
As a side note, and extra setting/ step you dont need is the 'Specify domain or unit' you can set this to No if the adminstrator account for the ad domain join UPN is in the same domain you are specifying, as it will automatically join to the domain from that taken from the ad domain join UPN; you would only need to say yes if you actually and specifically need to specify a domain other than that from the ad domain join upn, or specify an OU path which you havent.  hope that makes sense.
