Hi,
when configuring Windows Azure diagnostics extension (WAD) from Portal, there is no option to select storage account from different subscriptions / resource groups. Am I doing something wrong or are there no option to send diagnostics to another subscriptions? Can that be changed if I configure it by Powershell / Azure Runbook?
Most preferably way to enable this for me would be Azure runbook and If you have links, githubs, blogs etc. to sample runbook which can do this, please post it here.
Hi @bombbe ,
Thanks for the question. The appropriate way to do this would be through Azure PowerShell. If the diagnostics storage account is in a different subscription from the VM, then you need to explicitly pass in the StorageAccountName and StorageAccountKey parameters to the cmdlet. If the diagnostics storage account is in a different subscription, then the cmdlet might not be able to get the key automatically and you need to explicitly specify the key through the StorageAccountKey parameter. For more see this doc here.
