Move-AzureDeployment

Module:
Azure Module

Swaps deployments between production and staging.

Note

The cmdlets referenced in this documentation are for managing legacy Azure resources that use Azure Service Manager (ASM) APIs. This legacy PowerShell module isn't recommended when creating new resources since ASM is scheduled for retirement. For more information, see Azure Service Manager retirement.

The Az PowerShell module is the recommended PowerShell module for managing Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resources with PowerShell.

Important

Cloud Services (classic) is now deprecated for new customers and will be retired on August 31st, 2024 for all customers. New deployments should use the new Azure Resource Manager based deployment model Azure Cloud Services (extended support).

Syntax

Default (Default) 

Move-AzureDeployment
    [-ServiceName] <String>
    [-Profile <AzureSMProfile>]
    [-InformationAction <ActionPreference>]

Description

The Move-AzureDeployment cmdlet swaps the virtual IP addresses of deployments in production and staging environments. This cmdlet swaps a deployment that currently runs in the staging environment to the production environment, and a deployment that runs in the production environment to the staging environment. If there is a deployment in the staging environment and no deployment in the production environment, the cmdlet moves the deployment to production. If there is a deployment in the production environment and no deployment in the staging environment, the cmdlet fails.
