Enable Update Management - error

Question

Hi, I tried to enable Update Management, and everything appears to go well until trying to click the "Enable" button (nothing happens except in the browser console). ![73511-azure-updm.png][1] The browser console shows the following error: ---------- _1rRA0vmyWGo.js:10 [Microsoft_Azure_Automation] 11:27:01 AM MsPortalFx.Base.Diagnostics.ErrorReporter 3 MsPortalFx.Base.Diagnostics.ErrorReporter: message: vmLocation is null or undefined stack: RangeError: vmLocation is null or undefined at n.parseAzureLocation (https://afd.hosting.portal.azure.net/automation/Content/Dynamic/Dl4HLLcd_rAr.js:96:2747) at n.getRegionOMS (https://afd.hosting.portal.azure.net/automation/Content/Dynamic/Dl4HLLcd_rAr.js:96:5324) at t.onClick (https://afd.hosting.portal.azure.net/automation/Content/Dynamic/RzOlgOHfvEVF.js:1:6756) at t.invokeClickHandler (https://portal.azure.com/Content/Dynamic/wPDZ5XNJ2oEx.js:81:10072) at n.invoke (https://portal.azure.com/Content/Dynamic/\_1rRA0vmyWGo.js:35:21026) at Array.<anonymous> (https://portal.azure.com/Content/Dynamic/\_1rRA0vmyWGo.js:37:4369) at n.handleMessage (https://portal.azure.com/Content/Dynamic/wPDZ5XNJ2oEx.js:119:5321) at n.handleEventMessage (https://portal.azure.com/Content/Dynamic/\_1rRA0vmyWGo.js:37:4671) at Array.<anonymous> (https://portal.azure.com/Content/Dynamic/\_1rRA0vmyWGo.js:37:7129) at n.handleMessage (https://portal.azure.com/Content/Dynamic/wPDZ5XNJ2oEx.js:119:5321) From RPC: fx -> Microsoft_Azure_Automation (Callstack capturing is not enabled.

Hi @John Pollock ,

In general, while trying to enable update management we see this (MsPortalFx.Base.Diagnostics.ErrorReporter: message: vmLocation is null or undefined) error if machines were linked with different Log Analytics workspace. So I would recommend you to verify it and make sure the machines are linked with correct Log Analytics workspace. Let me know if that is not the case here.
