Azure Local - Homelab - Part 5 - deployment with local identities and KeyVault
Intro
In this article I go through the wizard in the Azure Portal to deploy Azure Local on ny 2 Azure Local nodes that were freshly installed in the previous part 4.
The Azure Local nodes are installed with version 2604 that supports ditching the legacy Active Directory in favor of local identities using Azure KeyVault.
Since the wizard is pretty straight forward, I have not written a lot about each step. However, it is very important that every step in part 4 has been carried out, otherwise the deployment validation will fail.

Networking can be a challenge. Use this support article from the Azure Local team, to test your network without having to wait for rerun on the deployment validation: AzureLocal-Supportability
