Description

The New-AzureRmDeployment cmdlet adds a deployment at the current subscription scope. This includes the resources that the deployment requires.

An Azure resource is a user-managed Azure entity. A resource can live in a resource group, like database server, database, website, virtual machine, or Storage account. Or, it can be a subscription level resource, like role definition, policy definition, etc.

To add resources to a resource group, use the New-AzureRmDeployment which creates a deployment at a resource group. The New-AzureRmDeployment cmdlet creates a deployment at the current subscription scope, which deploys subscription level resources.

To add a deployment at subscription, specify the location and a template. The location tells Azure Resource Manager where to store the deployment data. The template is a JSON string that contains individual resources to be deployed. The template includes parameter placeholders for required resources and configurable property values, such as names and sizes.

To use a custom template for the deployment, specify the TemplateFile parameter or TemplateUri parameter. Each template has parameters for configurable properties. To specify values for the template parameters, specify the TemplateParameterFile parameter or the TemplateParameterObject parameter. Alternatively, you can use the template parameters that are dynamically added to the command when you specify a template. To use dynamic parameters, type them at the command prompt, or type a minus sign (-) to indicate a parameter and use the Tab key to cycle through available parameters. Template parameter values that you enter at the command prompt take precedence over values in a template parameter object or file.

Examples

Example 1: Use a custom template and parameter file to create a deployment

PS C:\>New-AzureRmDeployment -Location "West US" -TemplateFile "D:\Azure\Templates\EngineeringSite.json" -TemplateParameterFile "D:\Azure\Templates\EngSiteParms.json" -TemplateVersion "2.1"

This command creates a new deployment at the current subscription scope by using a custom template and a template file on disk. The command uses the TemplateFile parameter to specify the template and the TemplateParameterFile parameter to specify a file that contains parameters and parameter values. It uses the TemplateVersion parameter to specify the version of the template.
