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.

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.
