PoolProperties

Name	Description	Value
applicationLicenses	The list of application licenses must be a subset of available Batch service application licenses. If a license is requested which is not supported, pool creation will fail.	string[]
applicationPackages	Changes to application package references affect all new compute nodes joining the pool, but do not affect compute nodes that are already in the pool until they are rebooted or reimaged. There is a maximum of 10 application package references on any given pool.	ApplicationPackageReference[]
certificates	For Windows compute nodes, the Batch service installs the certificates to the specified certificate store and location. For Linux compute nodes, the certificates are stored in a directory inside the task working directory and an environment variable AZ_BATCH_CERTIFICATES_DIR is supplied to the task to query for this location. For certificates with visibility of 'remoteUser', a 'certs' directory is created in the user's home directory (e.g., /home/{user-name}/certs) and certificates are placed in that directory. Warning: This property is deprecated and will be removed after February, 2024. Please use the Azure KeyVault Extension instead.	CertificateReference[]
deploymentConfiguration	Using CloudServiceConfiguration specifies that the nodes should be creating using Azure Cloud Services (PaaS), while VirtualMachineConfiguration uses Azure Virtual Machines (IaaS).	DeploymentConfiguration
displayName	The display name need not be unique and can contain any Unicode characters up to a maximum length of 1024.	string

publicIPAddressConfiguration	This property is only supported on Pools with the virtualMachineConfiguration property.	PublicIPAddressConfiguration
subnetId	The virtual network must be in the same region and subscription as the Azure Batch account. The specified subnet should have enough free IP addresses to accommodate the number of nodes in the pool. If the subnet doesn't have enough free IP addresses, the pool will partially allocate compute nodes and a resize error will occur. The 'MicrosoftAzureBatch' service principal must have the 'Classic Virtual Machine Contributor' Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) role for the specified VNet. The specified subnet must allow communication from the Azure Batch service to be able to schedule tasks on the compute nodes. This can be verified by checking if the specified VNet has any associated Network Security Groups (NSG). If communication to the compute nodes in the specified subnet is denied by an NSG, then the Batch service will set the state of the compute nodes to unusable. If the specified VNet has any associated Network Security Groups (NSG), then a few reserved system ports must be enabled for inbound communication. For pools created with a virtual machine configuration, enable ports 29876 and 29877, as well as port 22 for Linux and port 3389 for Windows. For pools created with a cloud service configuration, enable ports 10100, 20100, and 30100. Also enable outbound connections to Azure Storage on port 443. For cloudServiceConfiguration pools, only 'classic' VNETs are supported. For more details see: /azure/batch/batch-api-basics#virtual-network-vnet-and-firewall-configuration	string

TaskContainerSettings
environmentSettings	A list of environment variable settings for the start task.	EnvironmentSetting[]
maxTaskRetryCount	The Batch service retries a task if its exit code is nonzero. Note that this value specifically controls the number of retries. The Batch service will try the task once, and may then retry up to this limit. For example, if the maximum retry count is 3, Batch tries the task up to 4 times (one initial try and 3 retries). If the maximum retry count is 0, the Batch service does not retry the task. If the maximum retry count is -1, the Batch service retries the task without limit. Default is 0	int
resourceFiles	A list of files that the Batch service will download to the compute node before running the command line.	ResourceFile[]
userIdentity	If omitted, the task runs as a non-administrative user unique to the task.	UserIdentity
waitForSuccess	If true and the start task fails on a compute node, the Batch service retries the start task up to its maximum retry count (maxTaskRetryCount). If the task has still not completed successfully after all retries, then the Batch service marks the compute node unusable, and will not schedule tasks to it. This condition can be detected via the node state and scheduling error detail. If false, the Batch service will not wait for the start task to complete. In this case, other tasks can start executing on the compute node while the start task is still running; and even if the start task fails, new tasks will continue to be scheduled on the node. The default is true.	bool

This field is able to be set to true or false only when using NodePlacementConfiguration as Zonal.	bool
maxBatchInstancePercent	The maximum percent of total virtual machine instances that will be upgraded simultaneously by the rolling upgrade in one batch. As this is a maximum, unhealthy instances in previous or future batches can cause the percentage of instances in a batch to decrease to ensure higher reliability. The value of this field should be between 5 and 100, inclusive. If both maxBatchInstancePercent and maxUnhealthyInstancePercent are assigned with value, the value of maxBatchInstancePercent should not be more than maxUnhealthyInstancePercent.	int Constraints: Min value = 5 Max value = 100
maxUnhealthyInstancePercent	The maximum percentage of the total virtual machine instances in the scale set that can be simultaneously unhealthy, either as a result of being upgraded, or by being found in an unhealthy state by the virtual machine health checks before the rolling upgrade aborts. This constraint will be checked prior to starting any batch. The value of this field should be between 5 and 100, inclusive.

The Batch service will try the task once, and may then retry up to this limit. For example, if the maximum retry count is 3, Batch tries the task up to 4 times (one initial try and 3 retries). If the maximum retry count is 0, the Batch service does not retry the task. If the maximum retry count is -1, the Batch service retries the task without limit. Default is 0	int
resourceFiles	A list of files that the Batch service will download to the compute node before running the command line.	ResourceFile[]
userIdentity	If omitted, the task runs as a non-administrative user unique to the task.	UserIdentity
waitForSuccess	If true and the start task fails on a compute node, the Batch service retries the start task up to its maximum retry count (maxTaskRetryCount). If the task has still not completed successfully after all retries, then the Batch service marks the compute node unusable, and will not schedule tasks to it. This condition can be detected via the node state and scheduling error detail. If false, the Batch service will not wait for the start task to complete. In this case, other tasks can start executing on the compute node while the start task is still running; and even if the start task fails, new tasks will continue to be scheduled on the node. The default is true.	bool

TaskContainerSettings

Name	Description	Value
containerRunOptions	These additional options are supplied as arguments to the "docker create" command, in addition to those controlled by the Batch Service.	string
imageName	This is the full image reference, as would be specified to "docker pull". If no tag is provided as part of the image name, the tag ":latest" is used as a default.	string (required)

fileMode	This property applies only to files being downloaded to Linux compute nodes. It will be ignored if it is specified for a resourceFile which will be downloaded to a Windows node. If this property is not specified for a Linux node, then a default value of 0770 is applied to the file.	string
filePath	If the httpUrl property is specified, the filePath is required and describes the path which the file will be downloaded to, including the filename. Otherwise, if the autoStorageContainerName or storageContainerUrl property is specified, filePath is optional and is the directory to download the files to. In the case where filePath is used as a directory, any directory structure already associated with the input data will be retained in full and appended to the specified filePath directory. The specified relative path cannot break out of the task's working directory (for example by using '..').	string
httpUrl	The autoStorageContainerName, storageContainerUrl and httpUrl properties are mutually exclusive and one of them must be specified. If the URL points to Azure Blob Storage, it must be readable from compute nodes. There are three ways to get such a URL for a blob in Azure storage: include a Shared Access Signature (SAS) granting read permissions on the blob, use a managed identity with read permission, or set the ACL for the blob or its container to allow public access.	string
identityReference	The reference to a user assigned identity associated with the Batch pool which a compute node will use.	ComputeNodeIdentityReference
storageContainerUrl	The autoStorageContainerName, storageContainerUrl and httpUrl properties are mutually exclusive and one of them must be specified. This URL must be readable and listable from compute nodes. There are three ways to get such a URL for a container in Azure storage: include a Shared Access Signature (SAS) granting read and list permissions on the container, use a managed identity with read and list permissions, or set the ACL for the container to allow public access.	string

UserIdentity

Name	Description	Value
autoUser	The userName and autoUser properties are mutually exclusive; you must specify one but not both.	AutoUserSpecification
userName	The userName and autoUser properties are mutually exclusive; you must specify one but not both.	string

AutoUserSpecification

Name	Description	Value
elevationLevel	The default value is nonAdmin.	'Admin' 'NonAdmin'
scope	The default value is Pool. If the pool is running Windows a value of Task should be specified if stricter isolation between tasks is required. For example, if the task mutates the registry in a way which could impact other tasks, or if certificates have been specified on the pool which should not be accessible by normal tasks but should be accessible by start tasks.	'Pool' 'Task'

TaskSchedulingPolicy

Name	Description	Value
nodeFillType	How tasks should be distributed across compute nodes.	'Pack' 'Spread' (required)

UpgradePolicy

Name	Description	Value
automaticOSUpgradePolicy	The configuration parameters used for performing automatic OS upgrade.	AutomaticOSUpgradePolicy
mode	Specifies the mode of an upgrade to virtual machines in the scale set. Possible values are: Manual - You control the application of updates to virtual machines in the scale set. You do this by using the manualUpgrade action. Automatic - All virtual machines in the scale set are automatically updated at the same time. Rolling - Scale set performs updates in batches with an optional pause time in between.	'automatic' 'manual' 'rolling' (required)
rollingUpgradePolicy	This property is only supported on Pools with the virtualMachineConfiguration property.	RollingUpgradePolicy

AutomaticOSUpgradePolicy

Name	Description	Value
disableAutomaticRollback	Whether OS image rollback feature should be disabled.	bool
enableAutomaticOSUpgrade	Indicates whether OS upgrades should automatically be applied to scale set instances in a rolling fashion when a newer version of the OS image becomes available. If this is set to true for Windows based pools, WindowsConfiguration.enableAutomaticUpdates cannot be set to true.	bool
osRollingUpgradeDeferral	Defer OS upgrades on the TVMs if they are running tasks.	bool
useRollingUpgradePolicy	Indicates whether rolling upgrade policy should be used during Auto OS Upgrade. Auto OS Upgrade will fallback to the default policy if no policy is defined on the VMSS.	bool

RollingUpgradePolicy

Name	Description	Value
enableCrossZoneUpgrade	Allow VMSS to ignore AZ boundaries when constructing upgrade batches. Take into consideration the Update Domain and maxBatchInstancePercent to determine the batch size. If this field is not set, Azure Azure Batch will not set its default value. The value of enableCrossZoneUpgrade on the created VirtualMachineScaleSet will be decided by the default configurations on VirtualMachineScaleSet. This field is able to be set to true or false only when using NodePlacementConfiguration as Zonal.	bool
maxBatchInstancePercent	The maximum percent of total virtual machine instances that will be upgraded simultaneously by the rolling upgrade in one batch. As this is a maximum, unhealthy instances in previous or future batches can cause the percentage of instances in a batch to decrease to ensure higher reliability. The value of this field should be between 5 and 100, inclusive. If both maxBatchInstancePercent and maxUnhealthyInstancePercent are assigned with value, the value of maxBatchInstancePercent should not be more than maxUnhealthyInstancePercent.	int Constraints: Min value = 5 Max value = 100
maxUnhealthyInstancePercent	The maximum percentage of the total virtual machine instances in the scale set that can be simultaneously unhealthy, either as a result of being upgraded, or by being found in an unhealthy state by the virtual machine health checks before the rolling upgrade aborts. This constraint will be checked prior to starting any batch. The value of this field should be between 5 and 100, inclusive. If both maxBatchInstancePercent and maxUnhealthyInstancePercent are assigned with value, the value of maxBatchInstancePercent should not be more than maxUnhealthyInstancePercent.	int Constraints: Min value = 5 Max value = 100
maxUnhealthyUpgradedInstancePercent	The maximum percentage of upgraded virtual machine instances that can be found to be in an unhealthy state. This check will happen after each batch is upgraded. If this percentage is ever exceeded, the rolling update aborts. The value of this field should be between 0 and 100, inclusive.	int Constraints: Min value = 0 Max value = 100
pauseTimeBetweenBatches	The wait time between completing the update for all virtual machines in one batch and starting the next batch. The time duration should be specified in ISO 8601 format.	string
prioritizeUnhealthyInstances	Upgrade all unhealthy instances in a scale set before any healthy instances.	bool
rollbackFailedInstancesOnPolicyBreach	Rollback failed instances to previous model if the Rolling Upgrade policy is violated.	bool

UserAssignedIdentities

This object doesn't contain any properties to set during deployment. All properties are ReadOnly.

PoolProperties

Name	Description	Value
applicationLicenses	The list of application licenses must be a subset of available Batch service application licenses. If a license is requested which is not supported, pool creation will fail.	string[]
applicationPackages	Changes to application package references affect all new compute nodes joining the pool, but do not affect compute nodes that are already in the pool until they are rebooted or reimaged. There is a maximum of 10 application package references on any given pool.	ApplicationPackageReference[]
certificates	For Windows compute nodes, the Batch service installs the certificates to the specified certificate store and location. For Linux compute nodes, the certificates are stored in a directory inside the task working directory and an environment variable AZ_BATCH_CERTIFICATES_DIR is supplied to the task to query for this location. For certificates with visibility of 'remoteUser', a 'certs' directory is created in the user's home directory (e.g., /home/{user-name}/certs) and certificates are placed in that directory. Warning: This property is deprecated and will be removed after February, 2024. Please use the Azure KeyVault Extension instead.	CertificateReference[]
deploymentConfiguration	Using CloudServiceConfiguration specifies that the nodes should be creating using Azure Cloud Services (PaaS), while VirtualMachineConfiguration uses Azure Virtual Machines (IaaS).	DeploymentConfiguration
displayName	The display name need not be unique and can contain any Unicode characters up to a maximum length of 1024.	string
interNodeCommunication	This imposes restrictions on which nodes can be assigned to the pool. Enabling this value can reduce the chance of the requested number of nodes to be allocated in the pool. If not specified, this value defaults to 'Disabled'.	"Disabled" "Enabled"
metadata	The Batch service does not assign any meaning to metadata; it is solely for the use of user code.	MetadataItem[]
mountConfiguration	This supports Azure Files, NFS, CIFS/SMB, and Blobfuse.	MountConfiguration[]
networkConfiguration	The network configuration for a pool.	NetworkConfiguration
resourceTags	The user-defined tags to be associated with the Azure Batch Pool. When specified, these tags are propagated to the backing Azure resources associated with the pool. This property can only be specified when the Batch account was created with the poolAllocationMode property set to 'UserSubscription'.	object
scaleSettings	Defines the desired size of the pool. This can either be 'fixedScale' where the requested targetDedicatedNodes is specified, or 'autoScale' which defines a formula which is periodically reevaluated. If this property is not specified, the pool will have a fixed scale with 0 targetDedicatedNodes.	ScaleSettings
startTask	In an PATCH (update) operation, this property can be set to an empty object to remove the start task from the pool.	StartTask
targetNodeCommunicationMode	If omitted, the default value is Default.	"Classic" "Default" "Simplified"
taskSchedulingPolicy	If not specified, the default is spread.	TaskSchedulingPolicy
taskSlotsPerNode	The default value is 1. The maximum value is the smaller of 4 times the number of cores of the vmSize of the pool or 256.	int

userIdentity	If omitted, the task runs as a non-administrative user unique to the task.	UserIdentity
waitForSuccess	If true and the start task fails on a compute node, the Batch service retries the start task up to its maximum retry count (maxTaskRetryCount). If the task has still not completed successfully after all retries, then the Batch service marks the compute node unusable, and will not schedule tasks to it. This condition can be detected via the node state and scheduling error detail. If false, the Batch service will not wait for the start task to complete. In this case, other tasks can start executing on the compute node while the start task is still running; and even if the start task fails, new tasks will continue to be scheduled on the node.
