Allow provisioned VM pricing to be altered to add software licensing without reprovisioning
As an Azure VM user/administrator, I would like to be able to take an existing VM priced at one rate, and "upgrade" the pricing to include licensing for products installed after provisioning. I would like this to provide flexibility (e.g., if I want to install SQL Server on a Windows priced VM, without losing install/configuration work already undertaken on that VM and without independently licensing SQL; or if I want to add BizTalk to a Win/SQL-priced VM). I would also like this to allow simplified compliance (e.g., a Windows-priced VM is found to have SQL Server installed after provisioning), to…

ensure all documents that have AZ CLI examples also have PowerShell Examples
There are many pages of documents that have only AZ CLI examples for them. For a PowerShell user this is not exactly helpful and reduces the capability of IT Pro's & Dev's to get to grips with these newer offerings
Therefore please make it a requirement to have PowerShell Examples listed next to any AZ CLI examples so that those that are comfortable with PowerShell
I have raised a GitHub Issue to have this tracked as well https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/issues/13162#issuecomment-411907216

Available Disk Space monitoring and alerts are not sufficient
The current available tools for visualizing and alerting on available Disk Space for Azure Virtual Machines should be expanded. In the Dashboards module, there is no Live Tile that would allow you to see a Virtual Machine's disks and available space. You can get some data through custom queries, but these queries are manual-refresh only and are not truly suited to a live Dashboard environment.
Similarly, there is no way to create an Alert for low disk space in the current Alerts module. In Alerts (Classic) there was a % Free Disk Space - this is not sufficient because it…

Azure Policy - Support for RegEx in Match Conditions
Right now, the "Match" and "notMatch" conditions only support # for digit placeholders and ? for letters. This is okay, but it would be much more useful to support regex expressions. This would needed for define complex naming policies and tagging standards.

Recovery Service Vault, Backup storage Replication in ARM
Currently there is no way to sepcify which storage replication is wanted when you create a Recovery Services Vault via ARM templates.
The default when spinning up a vault is GRS, and the only way to change it is to log into the portal and choose LRS before any backups have been applied.
The fact that the type of storage replication cannot be changed after a backup has been set does not help the situation.
This makes automating infrastrucutre builds painful as I have to login and change the setting in the portal before i am able to continue adding…

Whitelist all Microsoft services in Storage account Firewall
Whitelist all Microsoft services including Azure Data Factory when the "Firewall and Virtual Network" option is enabled on Storage account and "Allow trusted Microsoft services to access this storage account" option is selected.
Similar option is already available on Azure Data Lake store, where we can access Data Lake from Data Factory pipelines after the firewall option is enabled.

Invoices for Azure Add-On customers (external services)
Currently, invoices are not prepared for payments of the Azure Add-On customers (external services) (i.e. SendGrid).
This causes problems in our accounting. Could you make them available?

Allow changing the Service Principal associated with AKS
Currently it's impossible to change the Service Principal associated with Azure Kubernetes Service.
You might want to change the service principal if you're doing big changes in your Azure AD or moving your Azure Subscription to another directory.50 votes -
Azure Revered Instances - Applying reservation to single or multiple VMs
Azure Revered Instances - Applying reservation to single or multiple VMs.
Looks like someone in Azure product team really missed ball on this. Basic things like selecting a VM to apply reservation is not even properly setup or documented. This shows poor work effort provided by the group worked on it.

azure zones dns-forwarder
Please extend DNS zones solution to add forwarding & client features to implement the following in PaaS instead of with VMs:
https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates/tree/master/301-dns-forwarderUse case: use azure dns to forward dns queries to 168.63.129.16 & between subnets. Enterprise DNS would forward to Azure DNS. VNET has Azure-provided name resolution (*.internal.cloudapp.net). In this way Enterprise DNS could dynamically learn of a PaaS offering on VNET.

Prevent Creation of Classic Machine Learning Web Services so Tags can be Enforced
Prevent Creation of Legacy Machine Learning Workspace Commitment Plans and classic web services so Tags can be Enforced.
Our organization sets a Tag policy on resource groups so that newly created resources within that resource group will inherit tags. The main tag is 'Department Code', and is used for Chargeback for resource usage. Any Machine Learning 'classic' web services, that were created using the Machine Learning Studio portal will be created outside of the standard tagged resource group and thus, will not inherit standard tags used for Chargeback.
We also need a migration method for existing classic web services to…

Allow NSG for VPN Gateway Subnet
We want to connect several devices with our Azure VNET via the VPN Gateway. Therefore the VPN Gateway is configured for P2S connections.
We want to restrict the devices so that they can only communicate with certain other devices.
To implement this functionality we need to assign the VPN Gateway subnet a NSG. Furthermore this NSG should be dynamic, because the IPs provided by the VPN Gateway to its clients clould not be predetermined.
Currently NSGs are not supported for VPN Gateway subnets as well as there is no way to control IP allocation for connecting devices.

Integrate Azure MFA with the Windows login process, maybe through Windows Hello for Business.
From what I can see it's not currently possible to integrate Azure MFA into the Windows domain login process as a second factor. For example, if a user was to authenticate to the local AD first and then be required to use Azure MFA to add a second factor, using the Microsoft Authenticator app. This would remove the need for third party smartcards or hardware tokens.

For each resource creation save the date and the user
Usually when you create a resource you do not know when was created and by whom, the information in logs is available only for a determined period of time and then lost, that is something that will be very helpful to include in the Overview section.
