There are some common properties and some provider-specific ones.
Unfortunately we don't have yet a page describing all the existing ones.
You can find the common properties here:
http://jclouds.apache.org/reference/javadoc/2.0.x/org/jclouds/Constants.html
The compute service specific properties here:
http://jclouds.apache.org/reference/javadoc/2.0.x/org/jclouds/compute/config/ComputeServiceProperties.html
And each provider often has a constants class with all its particular
properties. In the case of azurecompute-arm:
https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds-labs/blob/master/azurecompute-arm/src/main/java/org/jclouds/azurecompute/arm/config/AzureComputeProperties.java

This is an expected behaviour when you have existing virtual machines, and
it is just a warning log message. The jclouds compute service has an
ImageExtension that allows users to create images (or snapshots) of
existing virtual machines. In Azure, those images are stored in the storage
account of the virtual machine itself, and the only way to list them is to
inspect the storage account of each existing VM. That's why the
"listImages" operations tries to access each VM's storage account, and why
you might see the warning message, if access there is denied. Under normal
circumstances you can safely ignore that message.

There are two different things here.

First, the "jclouds.regions" property is used to filter the regions jclouds
will take into account. By default, jclouds will connect to each region and
list images, VMs, etc, from all them. This can be time consuming, and
probably you don't want to work with all existing regions. That property
allows you to tell jclouds which regions you care about, so it does not try
to connect and get information from the rest. If you don't set it, all
regions will be considered by default.

The other thing is about selecting the location where the VM will run. This
can be set with the "templateBuilder.locationId" method, but if omitted,
jclouds will select one location that is compatible with the selected image
and hardware profile. AFAIK it is not the case of ARM, but some providers
don't have all hardware profiles (and/or images) available in all regions,
so jclouds makes sure to select a location where the selected
image/hardware pair can run.

This is the first time I see this error. Do you have a complete stacktrace?


HTH!
