Hi, have you figured this out? We are experiencing the same thing.

As I understand this issue is caused by Terraform trying to create multiple instances in parallel.
Because of this parallelism there can be conflicts (error 409) when a resource (e.g. Network) is accessed the same time.

According to the documentation of Terraform https://www.terraform.io/docs/cli/commands/apply.html it defaults to 10 concurrent operations.
Setting parallelism to 1 might be a solution, a very slow solution and unviable if you plan to create 4 or more workers.

There is a page on Terraform describing some retry mechanism but I am not sure how to add it into the project
https://www.terraform.io/docs/extend/resources/retries-and-customizable-timeouts.html

We noticed that an outdated terraform version is used here
https://github.com/Azure-Samples/jmeter-aci-terraform/blob/main/pipelines/azure-pipelines.load-test.yml

The version used is 0.13.2 but as of now the version 1.1.3 as specified here
https://www.terraform.io/downloads

changing the version causes lots of other issues but this is something we have to try as creating an bug on terraform with an outdated version is not the way to go.

there is a pull request for that
#84

Edit: updating to the lastest version of terraform does not resolve the ticket, reaching out to the terraform team for help now ...
