Hi @directhex, is this issue still persists?

[directhex]

Actually, I haven't seen this failure personally in August. Let me check in with a Teams chat w/ other people suffering from related issues.

[Schniefel]

The issue still exists

Hi @directhex

1. What kind of ARM service endpoint are you using in AzureFileCopy tasks?
2. Where is the build agent running?
3. How does the whole pipeline definition looks like?
4. Share the complete debug logs?

Please share these details in order to investigate further.

[directhex]

I haven't had the issues since July 29th, on a daily job. I can't guarantee I haven't just been very lucky, but from my perspective, I'm no longer experiencing an issue.

@Schniefel Could you pls let us know if you are still facing this issue or not? If yes then pls do share the details.
