I had a Windows VM with "D2_v3" running. Then changed it to "B2S". Now I can't connect any more to my VM. I restarted but still doesn't work. I resetted the configuration but still doesn't work. Now after reading hundrets of documentation sites and hours or trials I am stuck. I can't connec to my VM any more.

    The configuration was a bit too small. I am wondering why the "Azure-portal" allows me choose a too small configuration for my virutal computer and also why the error messages when connecting via RDP didn't tell me about this. I selected a bigger, more expensive configuration and now it works. -> Issue solved.

    Hello @AndreasT-0720,

    Could you please check the deployment logs and see anything helpful available there?

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/templates/deployment-history?tabs=azure-portal#get-deployment-operations-and-error-message

    Also check activity logs https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/view-activity-logs

    From azure portal, you can connect the VM through serial port also as explained here to get more details of the issue: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/troubleshooting/serial-console-windows

    Please mark as "Accept the answer" if the above steps helps you. Others with similar issues can also follow the solution as per your suggestion

    Regards,

    Manu

    I had a similar issue that a customer changed the private IP address after login in to the vm.
    What i did was to:

    Stop and deallocate the vm

    Go to networking and click on "Attached interface"

    You may need to create a new interface.

    You can now delete the old NIC, if you want

    You can then assign a new IP or use the existig public ip

    I used these methods to resolved the issue.

    Let me know if these method helped.
