Description
#### Problem Description
- Support requests should be raised from within the Azure Portal and not
through GitHub.
- All sensitive information should be redacted if filing an issue on GitHub.
#### Steps to Reproduce
```
resource batchAccount 'Microsoft.Batch/batchAccounts@2022-06-01' = {
name: '${serviceName}batch${locationAbbr}${environmentAbbr}'
location: siteLocation
properties: {
allowedAuthenticationModes: [
'AAD'
'SharedKey'
'TaskAuthenticationToken'
]
autoStorage: {
storageAccountId: storageAccount.id
authenticationMode: 'StorageKeys'
}
}
identity: {
type: 'SystemAssigned'
}
resource cert 'certificates@2022-10-01' = {
name: 'SHA1-${certThumbprint}'
properties: {
format: 'Cer'
thumbprint: certThumbprint
data: certData
}
}
}
```
Deploy twice.
#### Expected Results
I would expect ARM Templates to be idempotent.
ARM template philosophy: "Repeatable results: Repeatedly deploy your infrastructure throughout the development lifecycle and have confidence your resources are deployed in a consistent manner. Templates are idempotent, which means you can deploy the same template many times and get the same resource types in the same state. You can develop one template that represents the desired state, rather than developing lots of separate templates to represent updates."
#### Actual Results
The second deployment fails due to "PropertyCannotBeUpdated" error.
