Hi guys,
I've deleted my vMX from the managed/enterprise application in Azure and am now trying to Unclaim said vMX from my Meraki Org.
When I do so, I get the message "Could not unclaim the selected security appliances: vMX nodes are retained for future use and need not be unclaimed"
I'm unsure if this will affect billing in Azure and I wanted to clean up my inventory in Meraki Dashboard.
Solved! Go to Solution.
The vMX in the dashboard and the vMX app in Azure are still two separate instances. If you have deleted the app in Azure, and removed all config there, you will not be billed in Azure, regardless of the vMX state in the Meraki Dashboard.
Just make sure you’ve “cleaned up” your Azure tenant, and you should be fine.
Have you opened a support case?
Support case opened, just waiting on reply.

Appreciated, thanks for confirming! Yes, the vMX app has been deleted and I do not see the subscription for it being renewed.
Just waiting on Meraki support regarding the Unclaim part.
Why do you wish to unclaim the vMX?
Support came back saying that I don't need to Unclaim it as it can be used at some later stage.
I wanted to just clean up the Org Inventory so that everything there was actually used in a network. I'll accept it anyway.
