I can't get Xbox Manager to connect to my Xbox One
I'm trying to set up everything so I can deploy builds from my PC to my Xbox One, but I can't connect to the Xbox One using either Xbox Manager GDK or xbconnect. Both of them time-out when I try to connect, even though I have developer home open on my xbox, and the web-based Xbox Device Portal is connecting just fine. Xbox Manager says "unable to connect to console" when it times out, and xbconnect says: SYSTEM: Unreachable. TITLE: Unreachable. Failed with error (0x80070102): The wait operation timed out. I'm also able to ping the xbox one just fine either by IP or name. I've tried this with multiple different versions of the GDK, and get the same result every time. Any suggestions? Any other ways to diagnose this? My Xbox says it's running June 2026 10.0.26100.8569 and I've tried Xbox Manager GDK June 2024: Version 10.0.25398.4271 and also the most recent version, April 2026 (10.0.26100.7822)
Azure support team not responding to support request
I am posting here because I have not received a response to my support request despite my plan stating that I should hear back within 8 hours. It has now gone a day beyond that limit, and I am still waiting for assistance with this urgent matter. This issue is critical for my operations, and the delay is unacceptable. The ticket/reference number for my original support request was 2410100040000309. And I have created a brand new service request with ID 2412160040010160. I need this addressed immediately.
Legacy SSRS reports after upgrading Azure DevOps Server 2020 to 2022 or 25H2
We are currently planning an upgrade from Azure DevOps Server 2020 to Azure DevOps Server 2022 or 25H2, and one of our biggest concerns is reporting. We understand that Microsoft’s recommended direction is to move to Power BI based on Analytics / OData. However, for on-prem environments with a large number of existing SSRS reports, rebuilding everything from scratch would require significant time and effort. Since Warehouse and Analysis Services are no longer available in newer versions, we would like to understand how other on-prem teams are handling legacy SSRS reporting during and after the upgrade. Have you rebuilt your reports in Power BI, moved to another reporting approach, or found a practical way to keep existing SSRS reports available during the transition? Any real-world experience, lessons learned, or recommended approaches would be greatly appreciated.Applying DevOps Principles on Lean Infrastructure. Lessons From Scaling to 102K Users.
Hi Azure Community, I'm a Microsoft Certified DevOps Engineer, and I want to share an unusual journey. I have been applying DevOps principles on traditional VPS infrastructure to scale to 102,000 users with 99.2% uptime. Why am I posting this in an Azure community? Because I'm planning migration to Azure in 2026, and I want to understand: What mistakes am I already making that will bite me during migration? THE CURRENT SETUP Platform: Social commerce (West Africa) Users: 102,000 active Monthly events: 2 million Uptime: 99.2% Infrastructure: Single VPS Stack: PHP/Laravel, MySQL, Redis Yes - one VPS. No cloud. No Kubernetes. No microservices. WHY I HAVEN'T USED AZURE YET Honest answer: Budget constraints in emerging market startup ecosystem. At our current scale, fully managed Azure services would significantly increase monthly burn before product-market expansion. The funding we raised needs to last through growth milestones. The trade: I manually optimize what Azure would auto-scale. I debug what Application Insights would catch. I do by hand what Azure Functions would automate. DEVOPS PRACTICES THAT KEPT US RUNNING Even on single-server infrastructure, core DevOps principles still apply: CI/CD Pipeline (GitHub Actions) • 3-5 deployments weekly • Zero-downtime deploys • Automated rollback on health check failures • Feature flags for gradual rollouts Monitoring & Observability • Custom monitoring (would love Application Insights) • Real-time alerting • Performance tracking and slow query detection • Resource usage monitoring Automation • Automated backups • Automated database optimization • Automated image compression • Automated security updates Infrastructure as Code • Configs in Git • Deployment scripts • Environment variables • Documented procedures Testing & Quality • Automated test suite • Pre-deployment health checks • Staging environment • Post-deployment verification KEY OPTIMIZATIONS Async Job Processing • Upload endpoint: 8 seconds → 340ms • 4x capacity increase Database Optimization • Feed loading: 6.4 seconds → 280ms • Strategic caching • Batch processing Image Compression • 3-8MB → 180KB (94% reduction) • Critical for mobile users Caching Strategy • Redis for hot data • Query result caching • Smart invalidation Progressive Enhancement • Server-rendered pages • 2-3 second loads on 4G WHAT I'M WORRIED ABOUT FOR AZURE MIGRATION This is where I need your help: Architecture Decisions • App Service vs Functions + managed services? • MySQL vs Azure SQL? • When does cost/benefit flip for managed services? Cost Management • How do startups manage Azure costs during growth? • Reserved instances vs pay-as-you-go? • Which Azure services are worth the premium? Migration Strategy • Lift-and-shift first, or re-architect immediately? • Zero-downtime migration with 102K active users? • Validation approach before full cutover? Monitoring & DevOps • Application Insights - worth it from day one? • Azure DevOps vs GitHub Actions for Azure deployments? • Operational burden reduction with managed services? Development Workflow • Local development against Azure services? • Cost-effective staging environments? • Testing Azure features without constant bills? MY PLANNED MIGRATION PATH Phase 1: Hybrid (Q1 2026) • Azure CDN for static assets • Azure Blob Storage for images • Application Insights trial • Keep compute on VPS Phase 2: Compute Migration (Q2 2026) • App Service for API • Azure Database for MySQL • Azure Cache for Redis • VPS for background jobs Phase 3: Full Azure (Q3 2026) • Azure Functions for processing • Full managed services • Retire VPS QUESTIONS FOR THIS COMMUNITY Question 1: Am I making migration harder by waiting? Should I have started with Azure at higher cost to avoid technical debt? Question 2: What will break when I migrate? What works on VPS but fails in cloud? What assumptions won't hold? Question 3: How do I validate before cutting over? Parallel infrastructure? Gradual traffic shift? Safe patterns? Question 4: Cost optimization from day one? What to optimize immediately vs later? Common cost mistakes? Question 5: DevOps practices that transfer? What stays the same? What needs rethinking for cloud-native? THE BIGGER QUESTION Have you migrated from self-hosted to Azure? What surprised you? I know my setup isn't best practice by Azure standards. But it's working, and I've learned optimization, monitoring, and DevOps fundamentals in practice. Will those lessons transfer? Or am I building habits that cloud will expose as problematic? Looking forward to insights from folks who've made similar migrations. --- About the Author: Microsoft Certified DevOps Engineer and Azure Developer. CTO at social commerce platform scaling in West Africa. Preparing for phased Azure migration in 2026. P.S. I got the Azure certifications to prepare for this migration. Now I need real-world wisdom from people who've actually done it!
How to Fix Azure Event Grid Entra Authentication issue for ACS and Dynamics 365 integrated Webhooks
Introduction: Azure Event Grid is a powerful event routing service that enables event-driven architectures in Azure. When delivering events to webhook endpoints, security becomes paramount. Microsoft provides a secure webhook delivery mechanism using Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) authentication through the AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber role. Problem Statement: When integrating Azure Communication Services with Dynamics 365 Contact Center using Microsoft Entra ID-authenticated Event Grid webhooks, the Event Grid subscription deployment fails with an error: "HTTP POST request failed with unknown error code" with empty HTTP status and code. For example: Important Note: Before moving forward, please verify that you have the Owner role assigned on app to create event subscription. Refer to the Microsoft guidelines below to validate the required prerequisites before proceeding: Set up incoming calls, call recording, and SMS services | Microsoft Learn Why This Happens: This happens because AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber role is NOT properly configured on Microsoft EventGrid SP (Service Principal) and event subscription entra ID or application who is trying to create event grid subscription. What is AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber Role: The AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber is an Azure Entra application role that: Enables your application to verify the identity of event senders Allows specific users/applications to create event subscriptions Authorizes Event Grid to deliver events to your webhook How It Works: Role Creation: You create this app role in your destination webhook application's Azure Entra registration Role Assignment: You assign this role to: Microsoft Event Grid service principal (so it can deliver events) Either Entra ID / Entra User or Event subscription creator applications (so they can create event grid subscriptions) Token Validation: When Event Grid delivers events, it includes an Azure Entra token with this role claim Authorization Check: Your webhook validates the token and checks for the role Key Participants: Webhook Application (Your App) Purpose: Receives and processes events App Registration: Created in Azure Entra Contains: The AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber app role Validates: Incoming tokens from Event Grid Microsoft Event Grid Service Principal Purpose: Delivers events to webhooks App ID: Different per Azure cloud (Public, Government, etc.) Public Azure: 4962773b-9cdb-44cf-a8bf-237846a00ab7 Needs: AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber role assigned Event Subscription Creator Entra or Application Purpose: Creates event subscriptions Could be: You, Your deployment pipeline, admin tool, or another application Needs: AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber role assigned Although the full PowerShell script is documented in the below Event Grid documentation, it may be complex to interpret and troubleshoot. Azure PowerShell - Secure WebHook delivery with Microsoft Entra Application in Azure Event Grid - Azure Event Grid | Microsoft Learn To improve accessibility, the following section provides a simplified step-by-step tested solution along with verification steps suitable for all users including non-technical: Steps: STEP 1: Verify/Create Microsoft.EventGrid Service Principal Azure Portal → Microsoft Entra ID → Enterprise applications Change filter to Application type: Microsoft Applications Search for: Microsoft.EventGrid Ideally, your Azure subscription should include this application ID, which is common across all Azure subscriptions: 4962773b-9cdb-44cf-a8bf-237846a00ab7. If this application ID is not present, please contact your Azure Cloud Administrator. STEP 2: Create the App Role "AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber" Using Azure Portal: Navigate to your Webhook App Registration: Azure Portal → Microsoft Entra ID → App registrations Click All applications Find your app by searching OR use the Object ID you have Click on your app Create the App Role: Display name: AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber Allowed member types: Both (Users/Groups + Applications) Value: AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber Description: Azure Event Grid Role Do you want to enable this app role?: Yes In left menu, click App roles Click + Create app role Fill in the form: Click Apply STEP 3: Assign YOUR USER to the Role Using Azure Portal: Switch to Enterprise Application view: Azure Portal → Microsoft Entra ID → Enterprise applications Search for your webhook app (by name) Click on it Assign yourself: In left menu, click Users and groups Click + Add user/group Under Users, click None Selected Search for your user account (use your email) Select yourself Click Select Under Select a role, click None Selected Select AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber Click Select Click Assign STEP 4: Assign Microsoft.EventGrid Service Principal to the Role This step MUST be done via PowerShell or Azure CLI (Portal doesn't support this directly as we have seen) so PowerShell is recommended You will need to execute this step with the help of your Entra admin. # Connect to Microsoft Graph Connect-MgGraph -Scopes "AppRoleAssignment.ReadWrite.All" # Replace this with your webhook app's Application (client) ID $webhookAppId = "YOUR-WEBHOOK-APP-ID-HERE" #starting with c5 # Get your webhook app's service principal $webhookSP = Get-MgServicePrincipal -Filter "appId eq '$webhookAppId'" Write-Host " Found webhook app: $($webhookSP.DisplayName)" # Get Event Grid service principal $eventGridSP = Get-MgServicePrincipal -Filter "appId eq '4962773b-9cdb-44cf-a8bf-237846a00ab7'" Write-Host " Found Event Grid service principal" # Get the app role $appRole = $webhookSP.AppRoles | Where-Object {$_.Value -eq "AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber"} Write-Host " Found app role: $($appRole.DisplayName)" # Create the assignment New-MgServicePrincipalAppRoleAssignment ` -ServicePrincipalId $eventGridSP.Id ` -PrincipalId $eventGridSP.Id ` -ResourceId $webhookSP.Id ` -AppRoleId $appRole.Id Write-Host "Successfully assigned Event Grid to your webhook app!" Verification Steps: Verify the App Role was created: Your App Registration → App roles You should see: AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber Verify your user assignment: Enterprise application (your webhook app) → Users and groups You should see your user with role AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber Verify Event Grid assignment: Same location → Users and groups You should see Microsoft.EventGrid with role AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber Sample Flow: Analogy For Simplification: Lets think it similar to the construction site bulding where you are the owner of the building. Building = Azure Entra app (webhook app) Building (Azure Entra App Registration for Webhook) ├─ Building Name: "MyWebhook-App" ├─ Building Address: Application ID ├─ Building Owner: You ├─ Security System: App Roles (the security badges you create) └─ Security Team: Azure Entra and your actual webhook auth code (which validates tokens) like doorman Step 1: Creat the badge (App role) You (the building owner) create a special badge: - Badge name: "AzureEventGridSecureWebhookSubscriber" - Badge color: Let's say it's GOLD - Who can have it: Companies (Applications) and People (Users) This badge is stored in your building's system (Webhook App Registration) Step 2: Give badge to the Event Grid Service: Event Grid: "Hey, I need to deliver messages to your building" You: "Okay, here's a GOLD badge for your SP" Event Grid: *wears the badge* Now Event Grid can: - Show the badge to Azure Entra - Get tokens that say "I have the GOLD badge" - Deliver messages to your webhook Step 3: Give badge to yourself (or your deployment tool) You also need a GOLD badge because: - You want to create event grid event subscriptions - Entra checks: "Does this person have a GOLD badge?" - If yes: You can create subscriptions - If no: "Access denied" Your deployment pipeline also gets a GOLD badge: - So it can automatically set up event subscriptions during CI/CD deployments Disclaimer: The sample scripts provided in this article are provided AS IS without warranty of any kind.

Docker Engine v29 on Linux: Why data-root No Longer Prevents OS Disk Growth (and How to Fix It)
Scope Applies to Linux hosts only Does not apply to Windows or Docker Desktop Problem Summary After upgrading to Docker Engine v29 or reimaging Linux nodes with this version, you may observe unexpected growth on the OS disk, even when Docker is configured with a custom data-root pointing to a mounted data disk. This commonly affects cloud environments (VMSS, Azure Batch, self‑managed Linux VMs) where the OS disk is intentionally kept small and container data is expected to reside on a separate data disk. What Changed in Docker Engine v29 (Linux) Starting with Docker Engine 29.0, containerd’s image store becomes the default storage backend on fresh installations. Docker explicitly documents this behavior: “The containerd image store is the default storage backend for Docker Engine 29.0 and later on fresh installations.” Docker containerd image store documentation Key points on Linux: Docker now delegates image and snapshot storage to containerd containerd uses its own content store and snapshotters Docker’s traditional data-root setting no longer controls all container storage Docker Engine v29 was released on 11 November 2025, and this behavior is by design, not a regression. Where Disk Usage Goes on Linux Docker’s daemon documentation clarifies the split: Legacy storage (pre‑v29 or upgraded installs): All data under /var/lib/docker Docker Engine v29 (containerd image store enabled): Images & snapshots → /var/lib/containerd Other Docker data (volumes, configs, metadata) → /var/lib/docker Crucially: “The data-root option does not affect image and container data stored in /var/lib/containerd when using the containerd image store.” Docker daemon data directory documentation This explains why OS disk usage continues to grow even when data-root is set to a data disk. Why the Old Configuration Worked Before On earlier Docker versions, Docker fully managed image and snapshot storage. Configuring: { "data-root": "/mnt/docker-data" } Was sufficient to redirect all container storage off the OS disk. With Docker Engine v29: containerd owns image and snapshot storage data-root only affects Docker‑managed data OS disk growth after upgrades or reimages is expected behavior This aligns fully with Docker’s documented design changes. Linux Workaround: Redirect containerd Storage To restore the intended behavior on Linux, keeping both Docker and containerd storage on the mounted data disk, containerd’s storage path must also be redirected. A practical workaround is to relocate /var/lib/containerd using a symbolic link. Example (Linux) sudo systemctl stop docker.socket docker containerd || true; sudo mkdir -p /mnt/docker-data /mnt/containerd; sudo rm -rf /var/lib/containerd; sudo ln -s /mnt/containerd /var/lib/containerd; echo "{\"data-root\": \"/mnt/docker-data\"}" | sudo tee /etc/docker/daemon.json; sudo systemctl daemon-reload; sudo systemctl start containerd docker' What This Does Stops Docker and containerd Creates container storage directories on the mounted data disk Redirects /var/lib/containerd → /mnt/containerd Keeps Docker’s data-root at /mnt/docker-data Restarts services with a unified storage layout This workaround is effective because it explicitly accounts for containerd‑managed paths introduced in Docker Engine v29, restoring the behavior that existed prior to the change. Key Takeaways Docker Engine v29 introduces a fundamental storage architecture change on Linux data-root alone is no longer sufficient OS disk growth after upgrades or reimages is expected containerd storage must also be redirected The workaround aligns with Docker’s official documentation and design References Docker daemon data directory https://docs.docker.com/engine/daemon/ containerd image store (Docker Engine v29) https://docs.docker.com/engine/storage/containerd/ Docker Engine v29 release notes https://docs.docker.com/engine/release-notes/29/Building Multi-Agent Orchestration Using Microsoft Semantic Kernel: A Complete Step-by-Step Guide
What You Will Build By the end of this guide, you will have a working multi-agent system where 4 specialist AI agents collaborate to diagnose production issues: ClientAnalyst — Analyzes browser, JavaScript, CORS, uploads, and UI symptoms NetworkAnalyst — Analyzes DNS, TCP/IP, TLS, load balancers, and firewalls ServerAnalyst — Analyzes backend logs, database, deployments, and resource limits Coordinator — Synthesizes all findings into a root cause report with a prioritized action plan These agents don't just run in sequence — they debate, cross-examine, and challenge each other's findings through a shared conversation, producing a diagnosis that's better than any single agent could achieve alone. Table of Contents Why Multi-Agent? The Problem with Single Agents Architecture Overview Understanding the Key SK Components The Actor Model — How InProcessRuntime Works Setting Up Your Development Environment Step-by-Step: Building the Multi-Agent Analyzer The Agent Interaction Flow — Round by Round Bugs I Found & Fixed — Lessons Learned Running with Different AI Providers What to Build Next 1. Why Multi-Agent? The Problem with Single Agents A single AI agent analyzing a production issue is like having one doctor diagnose everything — they'll catch issues in their specialty but miss cross-domain connections. Consider this problem: "Users report 504 Gateway Timeout errors when uploading files larger than 10MB. Started after Friday's deployment. Worse during peak hours." A single agent might say "it's a server timeout" and stop. But the real root cause often spans multiple layers: The client is sending chunked uploads with an incorrect Content-Length header (client-side bug) The load balancer has a 30-second timeout that's too short for large uploads (network config) The server recently deployed a new request body parser that's 3x slower (server-side regression) The combination only fails during peak hours because connection pool saturation amplifies the latency No single perspective catches this. You need specialists who analyze independently, then debate to find the cross-layer causal chain. That's what multi-agent orchestration gives you. The 5 Orchestration Patterns in SK Semantic Kernel provides 5 built-in patterns for agent collaboration: SEQUENTIAL: A → B → C → Done (pipeline — each builds on previous) CONCURRENT: ↗ A ↘ Task → B → Aggregate ↘ C ↗ (parallel — results merged) GROUP CHAT: A ↔ B ↔ C ↔ D ← We use this one (rounds, shared history, debate) HANDOFF: A → (stuck?) → B → (complex?) → Human (escalation with human-in-the-loop) MAGENTIC: LLM picks who speaks next dynamically (AI-driven speaker selection) We use GroupChatOrchestration with RoundRobinGroupChatManager because our problem requires agents to see each other's work, challenge assumptions, and build on each other's analysis across two rounds. 2. Architecture Overview Here's the complete architecture of what we're building: 3. Understanding the Key SK Components Before we write code, let's understand the 5 components we'll use and the design pattern each implements: ChatCompletionAgent — Strategy Pattern The agent definition. Each agent is a combination of: name — unique identifier (used in round-robin ordering) instructions — the persona and rules (this is the prompt engineering) service — which AI provider to call (Strategy Pattern — swap providers without changing agent logic) description — what other agents/tools understand about this agent agent = ChatCompletionAgent( name="ClientAnalyst", instructions="You are ONLY ClientAnalyst...", service=gemini_service, # ← Strategy: swap to OpenAI with zero changes description="Analyzes client-side issues", ) GroupChatOrchestration — Mediator Pattern The orchestration defines HOW agents interact. It's the Mediator — agents don't talk to each other directly. Instead, the orchestration manages a shared ChatHistory and routes messages through the Manager. RoundRobinGroupChatManager — Strategy Pattern The Manager decides WHO speaks next. RoundRobinGroupChatManager cycles through agents in a fixed order. SK also provides AutomaticGroupChatManager where the LLM decides who speaks next. max_rounds is the total number of messages per agent or cycle. With 4 agents and max_rounds=8, each agent speaks exactly twice. InProcessRuntime — Actor Model Abstraction The execution engine. Every agent becomes an "actor" with its own kind of mailbox (message queue). The runtime delivers messages between actors. Key properties: No shared state — agents communicate only through messages Sequential processing — each agent processes one message at a time Location transparency — same code works in-process today, distributed tomorrow agent_response_callback — Observer Pattern A function that fires after EVERY agent response. We use it to display each agent's output in real-time with emoji labels and round numbers. 4. The Actor Model — How InProcessRuntime Works The Actor Model is a concurrency pattern where each entity is an isolated "actor" with a private mailbox. Here's what happens inside InProcessRuntime when we run our demo: runtime.start() │ ├── Creates internal message loop (asyncio event loop) │ orchestration.invoke(task="504 timeout...", runtime=runtime) │ ├── Creates Actor[Orchestrator] → manages overall flow ├── Creates Actor[Manager] → RoundRobinGroupChatManager ├── Creates Actor[ClientAnalyst] → mailbox created, waiting ├── Creates Actor[NetworkAnalyst] → mailbox created, waiting ├── Creates Actor[ServerAnalyst] → mailbox created, waiting └── Creates Actor[Coordinator] → mailbox created, waiting Manager receives "start" message │ ├── Checks turn order: [Client, Network, Server, Coordinator] ├── Sends task to ClientAnalyst mailbox │ → ClientAnalyst processes: calls LLM → response │ → Response added to shared ChatHistory │ → callback fires (displayed in Notebook UI) │ → Sends "done" back to Manager │ ├── Manager updates: turn_index=1 ├── Sends to NetworkAnalyst mailbox │ → Same flow... │ ├── ... (ServerAnalyst, Coordinator for Round 1) │ ├── Manager checks: messages=4, max_rounds=8 → continue │ ├── Round 2: same cycle with cross-examination │ └── After message 8: Manager sends "complete" → OrchestrationResult resolves → result.get() returns final answer runtime.stop_when_idle() → All mailboxes empty → clean shutdown The Actor Model guarantees: No race conditions (each actor processes one message at a time) No deadlocks (no shared locks to contend for) No shared mutable state (agents communicate only via messages) 5.

The Agent Interaction Flow — Round by Round Here's what actually happens during the 8-message orchestration: Round 1: Independent Analysis (Messages 1-4) Msg Agent What They See What They Do 1 ClientAnalyst Problem statement only Analyzes from client perspective: upload chunking, progress bar freezing at 85%, CORS, content-type headers 2 NetworkAnalyst Problem + ClientAnalyst's analysis Gives INDEPENDENT analysis despite seeing msg 1: load balancer timeouts, proxy body size limits, TCP window scaling 3 ServerAnalyst Problem + msgs 1-2 Gives INDEPENDENT analysis: recent deployment regression, request body parser, thread pool exhaustion, disk space 4 Coordinator Problem + msgs 1-3 Observes patterns: "All three mention timeout configuration. ClientAnalyst and NetworkAnalyst both point to body size. Question: Was the deployment a backend-only change or did it include infra?" Round 2: Cross-Examination (Messages 5-8) Msg Agent What They Do 5 ClientAnalyst "I agree with NetworkAnalyst that the load balancer timeout is likely a factor — the 85% freeze point matches the 30-second LB timeout for a 10MB upload on our average upload speed. However, I disagree with ServerAnalyst about thread pool exhaustion because the UI shows a clean 504, not a connection reset." 6 NetworkAnalyst "ServerAnalyst's point about the recent deployment is critical — if the new request parser is 3x slower, that would push uploads past the LB timeout. I can confirm the LB has a 30s idle timeout. The fix is both: increase LB timeout AND optimize the parser." 7 ServerAnalyst "Responding to Coordinator's question: The deployment was backend-only — a new multipart parser using streaming instead of buffered reads. ClientAnalyst is correct that the 504 is from the LB, not the app. The app itself returns 200 after 45 seconds, but the LB kills the connection at 30." 8 Coordinator Produces final structured report with root cause: "The backend deployment introduced a slower multipart parser (45s vs 15s for 10MB). The load balancer's 30s timeout kills the connection at ~85% progress. Fix: immediate — increase LB timeout to 120s. Short-term — optimize parser. Long-term — implement chunked uploads with progress resumption." Notice: The Round 2 analysis is dramatically better than Round 1. Agents reference each other by name, build on each other's findings, and the Coordinator can synthesize a cross-layer causal chain that no single agent could have produced. I made a small adjustment to the issue with Azure Web Apps. Please find the details below from testing carried out using Google Gemini: 8. Bugs I Found & Fixed — Lessons Learned Building this demo taught me several important lessons about multi-agent systems: Bug 1: Agents Speaking Only Once Symptom: Only 4 messages instead of 8. Root cause: The agents list was missing the Coordinator. It was defined in a separate cell and wasn't included in the members list. Fix: All 4 agents must be in the same list passed to GroupChatOrchestration. Bug 2: NetworkAnalyst Says "I'm Ready to Proceed" Symptom: NetworkAnalyst's Round 2 response was just "I'm ready to proceed with the analysis" — no actual content. Root cause: The Coordinator's Round 1 message was assigning tasks ("NetworkAnalyst, please check the load balancer config"), and the agent was acknowledging the assignment instead of analyzing. Fix: Added explicit constraint to Coordinator: "Round 1 MUST NOT assign tasks — observation + questions ONLY." Bug 3: ServerAnalyst Says "As NetworkAnalyst, I..." Symptom: ServerAnalyst's response started with "As NetworkAnalyst, I believe..." Root cause: LLM identity bleeding. When agents share ChatHistory, the LLM sometimes loses track of which agent it's currently playing. This is especially common with Gemini. Fix: Identity anchoring at the very top of every agent's instructions: "You are ONLY ServerAnalyst. You must NEVER speak as ClientAnalyst, NetworkAnalyst, or Coordinator." Bug 4: Gemini Gives Thin/Empty Responses Symptom: Some agents responded with just one sentence or "I concur." Root cause: Gemini 2.5 Flash is more concise than GPT-4o by default. Without explicit length requirements, it takes shortcuts. Fix: Added "Every response MUST be at least 200 words" and "Answer the Coordinator's questions" to every specialist's instructions. Bug 5: Coordinator's Report is 18K Characters Symptom: The Coordinator's Round 2 response was absurdly long — repeating everything every specialist said. Fix: Added word limits: "Round 1 max 300 words, Round 2 max 800 words" and "Synthesize, don't echo." Bug 6: MAX_ROUNDS Math Symptom: With MAX_ROUNDS=9, ClientAnalyst spoke a 3rd time after the Coordinator's final report — breaking the clean 2-round structure. Fix: MAX_ROUNDS must equal (number of agents × number of rounds). For 4 agents × 2 rounds = 8. 9. Running with Different AI Providers The beauty of SK's Strategy Pattern is that you change ONE LINE to switch providers. Everything else — agents, orchestration, callbacks, validation — stays identical. Gemini setup: from semantic_kernel.connectors.ai.google.google_ai import GoogleAIChatCompletion service = GoogleAIChatCompletion( gemini_model_id="gemini-2.5-flash", api_key=os.getenv("GOOGLE_AI_API_KEY"), ) OpenAI Setup from semantic_kernel.connectors.ai.open_ai import OpenAIChatCompletion service = OpenAIChatCompletion( ai_model_id="gpt-4o", api_key=os.getenv("OPEN_AI_API_KEY"), ) 10. What to Build Next Add Plugins to Agents Give agents real tools — not just LLM reasoning - looks exciting right ;) class NetworkDiagnosticPlugin: (description="Pings a host and returns latency") def ping(self, host: str) -> str: result = subprocess.run(["ping", "-c", "3", host], capture_output=True, text=True) return result.stdout class LogSearchPlugin: (description="Searches server logs for error patterns") def search_logs(self, pattern: str, hours: int = 1) -> str: # Query your log aggregator (Splunk, ELK, Azure Monitor) return query_logs(pattern, hours) Add Filters for Governance Intercept every agent call for PII redaction and audit logging: .filter(filter_type=FilterTypes.FUNCTION_INVOCATION) async def audit_filter(context, next): print(f"[AUDIT] {context.function.name} called by agent") await next(context) print(f"[AUDIT] {context.function.name} returned") Try Different Orchestration Patterns Replace GroupChat with Sequential for a pipeline approach: # Instead of debate, each agent builds on the previous orchestration = SequentialOrchestration( members=[client_agent, network_agent, server_agent, coordinator_agent] ) Or Concurrent for parallel analysis: # All specialists analyze simultaneously, Coordinator aggregates orchestration = ConcurrentOrchestration( members=[client_agent, network_agent, server_agent] ) Deploy to Azure Move from InProcessRuntime to Azure Container Apps for production scaling. The agent code doesn't change — only the runtime. Summary The key insight from building this demo: multi-agent systems produce better results than single agents not because each agent is smarter, but because the debate structure forces cross-domain thinking that a single prompt can never achieve. The Coordinator's final report consistently identifies causal chains that span client, network, and server layers — exactly the kind of insight that production incident response teams need. Semantic Kernel makes this possible with clean separation of concerns: agents define WHAT to analyze, orchestration defines HOW they interact, the manager defines WHO speaks when, the runtime handles WHERE it executes, and callbacks let you OBSERVE everything. Each piece is independently swappable — that's the power of SK from Microsoft.

Remote debug options for Linux container on App Services
We run .Net hosted on Linux Docker containers running in App Service. This makes debugging very difficult as while there is an option for remote debugging, this is only for Windows containers. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/debugger/remote-debugging-azure-app-service?view=visualstudio The only option I can find for Linux is the one detailed in the link below from 2018 which involves running an SSH server in the Docker container and using an extension which doesn't seem to have a stable version. az extension add --name webapp az : WARNING: No stable version of 'webapp' to install. Preview versions allowed. https://azure.github.io/AppService/2018/05/07/New-SSH-Experience-and-Remote-Debugging-for-Linux-Web-Apps.html Are there any currently supported options for remote debugging in Linux containers? Are there any plans to introduce the remote debug feature for Linux App Services?
