## Symptoms

- * SmartConsole displays validation warnings: "Object is inaccessible/deleted on Data Center."
* Numerous validation warnings appear simultaneously, then clear without user intervention.
* Testing the connection in Security Management Server shows "connected" despite scan errors.
* Manual restart of Cloud Management services temporarily clears warnings.

## Cause

The Security Management Server cannot properly handle a specific connection error when communicating with the Microsoft Azure Data Center.   

This caused an unhandled exception during the scanning and mapping process, resulting in the CloudGuard Controller incorrectly registering Azure objects as inaccessible or deleted.
