rename Load Balancer name in Azure Portal
There should be an option to rename Load Balancer name in Azure Portal. We follow naming convention of each resources in Azure and there is high chance of typo's sometimes when configuring resources manually.
Recently I created a Load balancer for HA/DR solution and later realised there is typo in Azure Load Balancer while creation. So I have to delete the load balancer and create it again which caused some delay to setup whole solution. So i think there should be a feature to rename resource name in Azure after creation.
[admin] This should be a renaming ask on ARM
