So I was able to get it deployed, it was a bit unorthodox, but it worked.   -I assigned the VMX to the new (empty) RG -Then on another tab, I created the vnet/subnet and assigned them to that RG -Then went back to the VMX creation page and used the newly created vnet/subnet   It deployed successfully. Now Meraki support said you should be able to create this in an existing vnet, however I was unsuccessful in doing so. So I created peerings between the 2 vnets. I tested a VM and confirm it could ping the VMX from a different vnet.   Still having some issues pinging from Azure to our on-prem site, but I think that could be resolved once we look into the routings a bit more.     ...

So when I created the resource group, vnet, and subnet first, I try to add that VMX appliance to the resource group and it says the following:   That RG has the vnet/subnet already. Am I going in the wrong order on this? ... View more

Yea last I checked with Meraki, this was by design to have that lock. But it makes it impossible to go through their remaining steps. I haven't tried via powershell, i wonder if that'd make any difference ... View more

Ok, so not sure if anyone else has experienced this or figured it out.. Brand new RG/Vnet, etc...   Problem I have now is when I try to associate the vvnet/subnet to the route table, I get an error that it failed to save subnet due to the resource being locked.  , I  cant  figure out if i'm missing something ...

Welp, never mind.  After about 40 mins, got the following:     { "status": "Failed", "error": { "code": "ApplianceDeploymentFailed", "message": "The operation to create appliance failed.

Curious how long the appliances has taken some of you guys to deploy successfully? I have a deployment running now and it's at about 33 minutes... I don't see any errors on the Azure side, it just seems to be taking long. ... View more

It's not public in that you can't search for it yet on their site, but they definitely sent to those who participated in the beta. So the guide itself will probably be public Monday or whenever. It just seemed odd that I'd get that email and still encounter issues that we're having. ... View more

Thanks @MRCUR. We apparently are still using a beta, initially it was only available in the West Central region. We got an email from a Meraki Rep that it was available world wide on the 24th, with instructions on how to deploy it.   Just confusion I guess, the hope was once we got that email, we'd be able to move forward. Below is the email we got on Tuesday:   As you already know, we started the vMX beta program in West Central US only. I am happy to announce that vMX is now available worldwide. Please follow the steps in the setup guide to deploy vMX and let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for all your help during the beta program!   ... View more

Hi there,   Was anyone able to deploy this in the EastUS Region successfully? We're having issues trying to deploy it, it continues to fail. Within new vnet, or existing, within new resource group, or existing, etc... We were able to search and see the VMX in the marketplace. It shows up as Cisco Meraki vMX100 (Staged)   Would deploying via PowerShell make a difference? Thanks in advance   Error:   {"code":"DeploymentFailed","message":"At least one resource deployment operation failed.
