+# Troubleshoot accepted Cluster resources
+
+Operator Nexus relies on mirroring, or hydrating, resources from the on-premises cluster to Azure. When this process is interrupted, the Cluster resource can move to `Accepted`state. 
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. Install the latest version of the [appropriate CLI extensions](howto-install-cli-extensions.md)
+2. Collect the following information:
+   - Subscription ID (SUBSCRIPTION)
+   - Cluster name (CLUSTER)
+   - Resource group (CLUSTER_RG)
+   - Managed resource group (CLUSTER_MRG)
+3. Request subscription access to run Azure Operator Nexus network fabric (NF) and network cloud (NC) CLI extension commands.
+4. Sign In to Azure CLI and select the subscription where the cluster is deployed.
+
+## Mitigation steps
+
+### Triggering the resource sync
+
+
+1. From the Cluster resource page in the Azure portal, add a tag to the Cluster resource.
+2. In most cases, the resource moves out of the `Accepted` state.
+
+```bash
+az login
+az account set --subscription <SUBSCRIPTION>
+az resource tag --tags exampleTag=exampleValue --name <CLUSTER> --resource-group <CLUSTER_RG> --resource-type "Microsoft.ContainerService/managedClusters"
+```
+
+If the Cluster resource maintains the state after a period of time, less than 5 minutes, contact Microsoft support.
