Azure Power Action Failures due to Storage Account Permissions (Unmanaged disks)

 When customers use unmanaged disks, MCS will create Storage Accounts in Azure. These Storage Accounts will have public access to the internet. This behavior (& the security concerns) are documented here: https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/tech-zone/design/reference-architectures/virtual-apps-and-desktops-azure.html#securing-storage-accounts-provisioning-by-cvad-service  Some customers have concerns with allowing public access to the Storage Accounts & attempt to disable it in Azure Portal. This can cause many issues because MCS requires access to those Storage Accounts. If MCS cannot perform the key operations (like Read), then power actions will fail, machines may not be created, etc.
