All systems are fully operational.

Monitoring - We have been monitoring closely and our services have returned to normal operations and are processing the backlog.

Impact statement from Microsoft: As early as 19:46 UTC on 2 February 2026, we became aware of an ongoing issue causing customers to receive error notifications when performing service management operations - such as create, delete, update, scaling, start, stop - for Virtual Machines (VMs) across multiple regions. These issues are also causing impact to services with dependencies on these service management operations - including Azure Arc Enabled Servers, Azure Batch, Azure Cache for Redis, Azure Container Apps, Azure DevOps (ADO), Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Azure Load Testing, Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets (VMSS), and GitHub (see https://www.githubstatus.com).

Current status from Microsoft: We determined that these issues were caused by a recent configuration change that affected public access to certain Microsoft‑managed storage accounts, used to host extension packages. We are actively working to mitigate impact, by updating our configuration to restore relevant access permissions. We are making good progress applying this mitigation across all impacted regions, but we recently identified a small number of Storage accounts that were not included in our initial list of accounts requiring intervention. Although many customers are beginning to see signs of recovery, we are working our way through applying these configuration updates to the final remaining accounts that still require them. As such, we now expect that all regions and customers should be mitigated by approximately 01:00 UTC, one hour from now. Our next update will be provided by then, or sooner if we have progress to share.
