Here, you need to replace
<lock-name>with a name for the lock,<resource-group-name>with the name of the resource group containing the resource,<resource-name>with the name of the resource, and<resource-type>with the type of the resource. The--lock-typeparameter is set toCanNotDeleteto prevent accidental deletion of the resource. - Repeat step 4 for all the resources that do not have resource locks enabled.
