Which SAS Viya applications are available on Azure Market place. If I want to use SAS Studio from SAS Viya using Azure Marketplace then whether the application will be installed in my Azure Resource Group like other resources for example Databricks or do we need to perform some customized tasks in order to run SAS Studio available in Azure Resource Group.

How do I get a deplyment up and running.

Hello Rich Main,

I watched your video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHYaj5qiPow but you skipped the bit I'm stuck on. You say "in the spirit of a good cooking show I've already got a deployment up and running". That's where I'm stuck. How did you get a deployment up and running? I filled in the boxes on Azure as you instruct and supplied my credit card details. Now how do I deploy? Where do I find SAS Studio or a SAS editor page, I'm reasonably fluent with SAS 9. to write my programs in Viya now. So Where did that blue screen come from and which details from my Azure entries am I going to use. Might seem simple to you but Microsoft techs don't have a clue and SAS techs just say not our problem, look at the documentation. But the documentation does not come up with a solution.

(ps your email in the video doesn't work)

@Lillioja

I followed the instructions in the following link for my SAS Viya deployment on Azure https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/viyaakscdc/v_001/dplyviya0cld0aks/p01dmkd9w5m7lnn10uxnpsjlrcar.htm

There are many reasons for deployment failures. So, please share the specific error info you received if you have encountered deployment failures.

"Tip:You can always view the URL in the Azure portal. Go to your SAS Viya managed application, and then click Parameters and Outputs. In the Outputs section, locate sasViyaUrl under Names. The value for sasViyaUrl is the URL."

I have a subscription in Azure to SAS Viya pay-as-you-go. When I click on managed applications it says I don't have any.

myviyaapp.australiasoutheast.cloudapp.azure.com

mysasviya.australiasoutheast.cloudapp.azure.com

This is the result when I enter those two strings into the URL bar

I can only find a DNS by trying to open a brand new subscription.

I tried to sign in as you see.

Rich Main, you said its as easy as 1,2,3. I'm stuck on 2!

rich_sas — Mon, 30 Sep 2024 13:55:55 GMT

Hi @Lillioja! I'm sorry you are having difficulties. Hopefully I can help.

Please confirm that your subscription matches the documented requirements:

https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/viyaakscdc/v_001/viyaaksfaq/n09skbpwwk7m4vn122eufqzw4mgr.htm#n119k0xn8grv3gn10w40rb2awyna

Specifically, you must deploy into a region that supports availability zones:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/reliability/availability-zones-service-support#azure-regions-with-availability-zone-support

It appears that you might be deploying into a region without availability zones? Are you using Australia Southeast? I'm guessing that from the URL you shared. It looks like you may need to try Australia East.

Best regards,

Rich

Hi @Lillioja - Another user has had this issue before. Perhaps you could review your log events and check whether or not their solution works for you.

Re: How do I get a deplyment up and running.

DQM — Wed, 09 Oct 2024 20:35:49 GMT

I had similar issue. My solution was to register "Microsoft.Compute", which is required to create/update SSH keys.

Re: How do I get a deplyment up and running.

Lillioja — Thu, 10 Oct 2024 04:44:33 GMT

Thank you, that got things started.

But I got an error message see below.

Re: How do I get a deplyment up and running.

DQM — Thu, 10 Oct 2024 04:56:19 GMT

The error is at least partially caused by "'Microsoft.Compute/EncryptionAtHost' feature is not enabled for this subscription"

So, this feature needs to be enabled.

Execute the following command to register the feature for your subscription

az feature register --namespace Microsoft.Compute --name EncryptionAtHost

reference: Enable end-to-end encryption using encryption at host - Azure CLI - managed disks - Azure Virtual Machines | Microsoft Learn

Did you see the message “ The property 'securityProfile.encryptionAtHost' is not valid because the 'Microsoft.Compute/EncryptionAtHost' feature is not enabled for this subscription”?

It seems to me that you need to check this in your subscription or if this is available in your region.

That worked, Thanks

"Message: Insufficient regional vcpu quota left for location australiaeast. left regional vcpu quota 0, requested quota 44."

NEXT problem. How do I fix this?

This helped, thanks

So I added to quotas so many times and repeated the deployment attempts that I now get this error. I tried to delete the resource group ...1039 but couldn't.

(Code: DeploymentFailed, Target: /subscriptions/36efa6a2-ce6f-4094-a0e3-0cda7a743e04/resourceGroups/mrg-sas-viya-on-azure-20241010212403/providers/Microsoft.Resources/deployments/stephenbrainsapp2-automation), {
