Some additional comments:

• it was never happened on previous version we used - 10.17.0
• if blob doesn't exit in the storage account, we have clear error:
  failed to perform copy command due to error: failed to initialize enumerator: The specified file was not found.
  PS C:\Users\svc_automation> $LASTEXITCODE
  1
• storage account is in WestEurope, where as Windows VM is in SwedenCentral (if it relevant)

@ramiros-ua is the source path non existent or it is failing to copy an existing file?

[ramiros-ua]

The issue exactly that source exists! Nothing copied, exitcode = 0
Our pipelines trust to exitcode, but in this case we need to implement additional check if really blob was copied :(

Could you share the debug logs for this. If youre not comfortable sharing here, please email azcopydev AT microsoft.com

[ramiros-ua]

I will try to get it. As I said before - this error happens rarely. My point was mostly maybe to add additional check in azcopy
It should be not possible
