1 year ago @kaiyanqiu thanks for opening the issue! Unfortunately currently due to design trade-off in resources azurerm_linux_virtual_machine and azurerm_windows_virtual_machine we are not able to simply mark the os_profile as Optional according to what has been discussed in #7524. And similar to #8195, when using an existing OS Disk to create the VM resource, os_profile can also not be provided and not returned from the API. While this needs more consideration for how to properly implement these features in the current structure, while we are making further decision of how to implement this, I'd suggest using a Generalized image as a workaround.

Is there an existing issue for this?
Community Note
Terraform Version
1.0.2
AzureRM Provider Version
3.69.0
Affected Resource(s)/Data Source(s)
azurerm_linux_virtual_machine
Terraform Configuration Files
Debug Output/Panic Output
Expected Behaviour
From the resource: azurerm_virtual_machine is able to provision generalized shared gallery image successfully, but for resource: azurerm_linux_virtual_machine is unable to provision generalized shared gallery image. According to GitHub: https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-azurerm/issues/7772, would like to confirm whether this is a product limitation, if so, will it have a fix roll out in the future.
Actual Behaviour
For resource: azurerm_linux_virtual_machine is unable to provision generalized shared gallery image.
