Hello suresh Reddy

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform, thanks for posting your query here.

The error message "bash: 1: command not found" suggests that the command you are trying to execute on the VM is not found.

Please check the command once and make sure it is correct. You can try logging in to the VM using another method, such as using an SSH client like PuTTY or the Azure portal's "Connect" button, to see if the issue is specific to the CLI command you are using.

Please check this document once and try again:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-shell/quickstart?tabs=azurecli

Share the command that you are trying, will try once and see if I am able to reproduce the error.

Hope this helps.
