Description

The New-AzureRmImageConfig cmdlet creates a configurable image object.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\> $imageConfig = New-AzureRmImageConfig -Location 'West US';
PS C:\> $osDiskVhdUri = "https://contoso.blob.core.windows.net/test/os.vhd"
PS C:\> $dataDiskVhdUri1 = "https://contoso.blob.core.windows.net/test/data1.vhd"
PS C:\> $dataDiskVhdUri2 = "https://contoso.blob.core.windows.net/test/data2.vhd"
PS C:\> Set-AzureRmImageOsDisk -Image $imageConfig -OsType 'Windows' -OsState 'Generalized' -BlobUri $osDiskVhdUri;
PS C:\> Add-AzureRmImageDataDisk -Image $imageConfig -Lun 1 -BlobUri $dataDiskVhdUri1;
PS C:\> Add-AzureRmImageDataDisk -Image $imageConfig -Lun 2 -BlobUri $dataDiskVhdUri2;
PS C:\> New-AzureRmImage -Image $imageConfig -ImageName 'ImageName01' -ResourceGroupName 'ResourceGroup01';

The first command creates an image object, and then stores it in the $imageConfig variable. The next three commands assign paths of os disk and two data disks to the $osDiskVhdUri, $dataDiskVhdUri1, and $dataDiskVhdUri2 variables. This approach is only for readability of the following commands. The next three commands each adds an os disk and two data disks to the image stored in $imageConfig. The URI of each disk is stored in $osDiskVhdUri, $dataDiskVhdUri1, and $dataDiskVhdUri2. The final command creates an image named 'ImageName01' in resource group 'ResourceGroup01'.
