PostgreSQL Flexible Server Not Appearing After Automatic Migration

Hello,

My Azure Database for PostgreSQL Single Server was scheduled for migration to an Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server on August 31, 2024. However, the old PostgreSQL Single Server has now been deleted, and I am unable to locate the new Flexible Server in any of my resources. I’ve also checked via the Azure CLI, but the list is empty. Despite this, my services are still running and connected to the database.

I have not received any information or notification about this unusual situation. Is this expected behavior? What steps should I take next?

I found a similar issue that was resolved here:

Could you please investigate and help resolve my issue as well?

    Solution:

    As per the case verbatim,   you were not able see the Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server after migration from single server to flexible server. 

    After migration Azure database for flexible servers are running at backend but unfortunately not showing in portal. After migrating from Azure Database for MySQL Single Server to Flexible Server, an ARM (Azure Resource Manager) refresh is required due to the way Azure manages and updates its resources. When the migration is completed, the ARM cache needs to be refreshed to reflect the new state of the resources. This refresh ensures that the Azure Portal and other management tools display the most up-to-date information about the migrated resources.

    If I missed anything please let me know and I'd be happy to add it to my answer, or feel free to comment below with any additional information.
