Description
Error creating a catalog in a particular Azure Resource Location in DAAS
Failed to create the computer account XXXXXXXX due to a problem with Active Directory. This is often caused by the user running Studio not having permission to create computer accounts in the selected OU.
Cause
There are 2 Resource Locations which are in the same AD domain.
However, only 1 Resource Location is shown for the domain in Identity and Access Management > Domains.
Azure Resource Location is missing.
Both Resource Locations should be shown.
Resolution
Azure Cloud Connector could not resolve the DNS name of the top-level AD domain.
After adding a DNS forwarder from the AD domain to the Azure DNS server, the problem is resolved.
Now both Resource Locations are shown.
