Description

The Get-AzVM cmdlet gets the model view and instance view of an Azure virtual machine. The model view is the user specified properties of the virtual machine. The instance view is the instance level status of the virtual machine. Specify the Status parameter to get only the instance view of a virtual machine.

Examples

Example 1: Get model and instance view properties

PS C:\> Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup11" -Name "VirtualMachine07"

This command gets the model view and instance view properties of the virtual machine named VirtualMachine07.

Example 2: Get instance view properties

PS C:\> Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup11" -Name "VirtualMachine07" -Status

This command gets properties of the virtual machine named VirtualMachine07. This command specifies the Status parameter. Therefore, the command gets only the instance view properties.

Example 3: Get properties for all virtual machines in a resource group

PS C:\> Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup11"

This command gets properties for all the virtual machines in the resource group named ResourceGroup11.

Example 4: Get all virtual machines in your subscription

PS C:\> Get-AzVM

This command gets all the virtual machines in your subscription.
