Quickstart: Create a policy assignment to identify non-compliant resources using Terraform

Статия
07/09/2024

The first step in understanding compliance in Azure is to identify the status of your resources. This quickstart steps you through the process of creating a policy assignment to identify virtual machines that aren't using managed disks.

At the end of this process, you identify virtual machines that aren't using managed disks across subscription. They're non-compliant with the policy assignment.

When assigning a built-in policy or initiative definition, it's optional to reference a version. Policy assignments of built-in definitions default to the latest version and automatically inherit minor version changes unless otherwise specified.

Prerequisites

If you don't have an Azure subscription, create a free account before you begin.
Terraform version 0.12.0 or higher configured in your environment. For instructions, see Configure Terraform using Azure Cloud Shell.
This quickstart requires that you run Azure CLI version 2.13.0 or later. To find the version, run az --version. If you need to install or upgrade, see Install Azure CLI.

Create the Terraform configuration, variable, and output file

In this quickstart, you create a policy assignment and assign the Audit VMs that do not use managed disks definition. This policy definition identifies resources that aren't compliant to the conditions set in the policy definition.

Configure the Terraform configuration, variable, and output files. The Terraform resources for Azure Policy use the Azure Provider.

Create a new folder named policy-assignment and change directories into it.

Create main.tf with the following code:

Note

To create a Policy Assignment at a Management Group use the azurerm_management_group_policy_assignment resource, for a Resource Group use the azurerm_resource_group_policy_assignment and for a Subscription use the azurerm_subscription_policy_assignment resource.

  provider "azurerm" {
    features {}
  }

  terraform {
  required_providers {
      azurerm = {
          source = "hashicorp/azurerm"
          version = ">= 2.96.0"
      }
    }
  }

  resource "azurerm_subscription_policy_assignment" "auditvms" {
  name = "audit-vm-manageddisks"
  subscription_id = var.cust_scope
  policy_definition_id = "/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/policyDefinitions/06a78e20-9358-41c9-923c-fb736d382a4d"
  description = "Shows all virtual machines not using managed disks"
  display_name = "Audit VMs without managed disks assignment"
  }

Create variables.tf with the following code:
```
variable "cust_scope" {
    default = "{scope}"
}
```
A scope determines what resources or grouping of resources the policy assignment gets enforced on. It could range from a management group to an individual resource. Be sure to replace {scope} with one of the following patterns based on the declared resource:
- Subscription: /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}
- Resource group: /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}
- Resource: /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/providers/{resourceProviderNamespace}/[{parentResourcePath}/]

Create output.tf with the following code:

output "assignment_id" {
    value = azurerm_subscription_policy_assignment.auditvms.id
}

Initialize Terraform and create plan

Initialize Terraform to download the necessary providers and then create a plan.

Run the terraform init command. This command downloads the Azure modules required to create the Azure resources in the Terraform configuration.
```
terraform init
```
Authenticate with Azure CLI for Terraform. For more information, see Azure Provider: Authenticating using the Azure CLI.
```
az login
```
Create the execution plan with the terraform plan command and out parameter.
```
terraform plan -out assignment.tfplan
```
Note

For information about persisting execution plans and security, see Terraform Plan: Security Warning.

Apply the Terraform execution plan

Apply the execution plan.

Run the terraform apply command and specify the assignment.tfplan already created.

terraform apply assignment.tfplan

Screenshot of running the terraform apply command and the resulting resource creation.

With the Apply complete! Resources: 1 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed. message, the policy assignment is now created. Since we defined the outputs.tf file, the assignment_id is also returned.

Identify non-compliant resources

To view the resources that aren't compliant under this new assignment, use the assignment_id returned by terraform apply. With it, run the following command to get the resource IDs of the non-compliant resources that are output into a JSON file:

armclient post "/subscriptions/<subscriptionID>/providers/Microsoft.PolicyInsights/policyStates/latest/queryResults?api-version=2019-10-01&$filter=IsCompliant eq false and PolicyAssignmentId eq '<policyAssignmentID>'&$apply=groupby((ResourceId))" > <json file to direct the output with the resource IDs into>

Your results resemble the following example:

{
  "@odata.context": "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/providers/Microsoft.PolicyInsights/policyStates/$metadata#latest",
  "@odata.count": 3,
  "value": [
    {
      "@odata.id": null,
      "@odata.context": "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/providers/Microsoft.PolicyInsights/policyStates/$metadata#latest/$entity",
      "ResourceId": "/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/resourcegroups/<rgname>/providers/microsoft.compute/virtualmachines/<virtualmachineId>"
    },
    {
      "@odata.id": null,
      "@odata.context": "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/providers/Microsoft.PolicyInsights/policyStates/$metadata#latest/$entity",
      "ResourceId": "/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/resourcegroups/<rgname>/providers/microsoft.compute/virtualmachines/<virtualmachine2Id>"
    },
    {
      "@odata.id": null,
      "@odata.context": "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/<subscriptionId>/providers/Microsoft.PolicyInsights/policyStates/$metadata#latest/$entity",
      "ResourceId": "/subscriptions/<subscriptionName>/resourcegroups/<rgname>/providers/microsoft.compute/virtualmachines/<virtualmachine3ID>"
    }
  ]
}

The results are comparable to what you'd typically see listed under Non-compliant resources in the Azure portal view.

Clean up resources

To remove the assignment created, use Azure CLI or reverse the Terraform execution plan with terraform destroy.

Azure CLI

az policy assignment delete --name 'audit-vm-manageddisks' --scope '/subscriptions/<subscriptionID>/<resourceGroupName>'

Terraform
```
terraform destroy
```

Next steps

In this quickstart, you assigned a policy definition to identify non-compliant resources in your Azure environment.
