Task 02: Verify Provider Registration
DOCUMENT CATEGORY: Runbook
SCOPE: Azure resource provider registration verification
PURPOSE: Confirm all required resource providers are fully registered
MASTER REFERENCE: Microsoft Learn — Resource Providers
Status: Active
Overview
After registering resource providers in Task 01, this task verifies all providers have completed registration and are ready for use. Run this verification before proceeding to RBAC configuration.
Provider Registration Time
Some providers may still be in "Registering" state after Task 01. Wait 2–5 minutes and re-run verification if needed.
Prerequisites
| Prerequisite | Detail |
|---|---|
| Task 01 | Register Resource Providers completed |

When to use: Visual verification through Azure Portal
Procedure
- Navigate to Resource Providers:
- In Azure Portal, search for Subscriptions
- Select your target subscription (

No External Dependencies
This script is completely self-contained. Edit the $SubscriptionId in the #region CONFIGURATION block and run — no variables.yml, no config-loader, no helpers required.
Phase 02 Exit Criteria
Complete this checklist before proceeding to Phase 03:
- All 12 resource providers show "Registered" status
- Verification script passes with exit code 0
- Screenshot / documentation captured for handover
- Ready to proceed to Phase 03: RBAC & Permissions
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| Providers still "Registering" | Registration not yet complete | Wait 5 minutes and re-run verification |
| Cannot check provider status | Insufficient permissions | Verify Contributor or Owner role at subscription level |
| Registration failed | Check Activity Log | Azure Portal → Subscriptions → Activity log → filter by "Register resource provider" |
Next Steps
Phase 02 is complete. Proceed to Phase 03: RBAC & Permissions to configure role-based access control.
