Hi Team,
I am trying to create Vm in Azure by using PowerShell script but it is failed to create Vm because by default it is taking OS Disk type as : Premium Disk 252273-image.png
But it want to create Vm with OS Disk type as Standad SSD .252332-image.png

$location = 'east us'
$cred = Get-Credential -Message "Enter user name and password"
New-Azvm -name vm1 -ResourceGroupName ODL-azure-769268 -Location $location -VirtualNetworkName vnet1 -SubnetName subnet1 -Credential $cred.

    I have prepared a PowerShell script as below:
    Disk type is Standard SSD LRS
    252336-image.png

    Change the following values as per your preference.

    • username
    • password
    • Resource Group Name (create the resource group before starting the script)

    The script is able to create a Windows 2019 Datacenter server and prepares a security group so that you can access the computer through RDP 

    $vmAdminUsername = "Enter UserName"  
$vmAdminPassword = ConvertTo-SecureString "Enter strong Password" -AsPlainText -Force  
$vmComputerName = "WIN2K19"  
$azureLocation  = "EastUS"  
$azureResourceGroup = "Enter Resource Group Name"  
$azureVmName  = "WIN2K19"  
$azureVmSize  = "Standard_D2s_v3"  
$azureVmPublisherName = "MicrosoftWindowsServer"  
$azureVmOffer = "WindowsServer"  
$azureVmSkus = "2019-Datacenter"  
$NetworkName = "MyNet"  
$NICName = "MyNIC"  
$SubnetName = "MySubnet"  
$azurePublicIpName = "MyPublicIP"  
$SubnetAddressPrefix = "10.0.0.0/24"  
$VnetAddressPrefix = "10.0.0.0/16"  
$NSGName = "MyNSG"  
$azurePublicIp = New-AzPublicIpAddress -Name $azurePublicIpName -ResourceGroupName $azureResourceGroup -Location $azureLocation -AllocationMethod Dynamic  
$SingleSubnet = New-AzVirtualNetworkSubnetConfig -Name $SubnetName -AddressPrefix $SubnetAddressPrefix  
$Vnet = New-AzVirtualNetwork -Name $NetworkName -ResourceGroupName $azureResourceGroup -Location $azureLocation -AddressPrefix $VnetAddressPrefix -Subnet $SingleSubnet  
$nsgRuleRDP = New-AzNetworkSecurityRuleConfig -Name RDP  -Protocol Tcp  -Direction Inbound -Priority 1001 -SourceAddressPrefix * -SourcePortRange * -DestinationAddressPrefix * -DestinationPortRange 3389 -Access Allow;  
$nsg = New-AzNetworkSecurityGroup -ResourceGroupName $azureResourceGroup -Location $azureLocation -Name $NSGName  -SecurityRules $nsgRuleRDP;  
$NIC = New-AzNetworkInterface -Name $NICName -ResourceGroupName $azureResourceGroup -Location $azureLocation -SubnetId $Vnet.Subnets[0].Id -PublicIpAddressId $azurePublicIp.Id -NetworkSecurityGroupId $nsg.Id  
$vmCredential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ($vmAdminUsername, $vmAdminPassword)  
$VirtualMachine = New-AzVMConfig -VMName $azureVmName -VMSize $azureVmSize  
$VirtualMachine = Set-AzVMOperatingSystem -VM $VirtualMachine -Windows -ComputerName $vmComputerName -Credential $vmCredential  
$VirtualMachine = Add-AzVMNetworkInterface -VM $VirtualMachine -Id $NIC.Id  
$VirtualMachine = Set-AzVMSourceImage -VM $VirtualMachine -PublisherName $azureVmPublisherName -Offer $azureVmOffer -Skus $azureVmSkus -Version "latest"  
$VirtualMachine = Set-AzVMBootDiagnostic -VM $VirtualMachine -Disable  
$VirtualMachine = Set-AzVMOSDisk -VM $VirtualMachine -StorageAccountType "StandardSSD_LRS" -CreateOption FromImage  
New-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $azureResourceGroup -Location $azureLocation -VM $VirtualMachine -Verbose

    Hi

    Thank you for posting your query.

    Kindly follow the steps provided below to resolve your issue.

    The exercises in this tutorial require a VM. Follow the steps in this section to create one.

    Before you begin, find the $azRegion variable located in the first line of sample code and update the value to reflect your desired region. For example, to specify the Central US region, use $azRegion = "Central US". Next, use the code to deploy a VM within a new resource group. You're prompted for username and password values for the VM's local administrator account.

    $azRegion = "[Your Region]"
    $azResourceGroup = "myDemoResourceGroup"
    $azVMName = "myDemoVM"
    $azDataDiskName = "myDemoDataDisk"

    New-AzVm -Location $azRegion
    -ResourceGroupName $azResourceGroup -Name $azVMName
    -Size "Standard_D2s_v3" -VirtualNetworkName "myDemoVnet"
    -SubnetName "myDemoSubnet" -SecurityGroupName "myDemoNetworkSecurityGroup"
    -PublicIpAddressName "myDemoPublicIpAddress"
