Restart-WAPackVM

  • Reference
Module:
Azure

Restarts virtual machines.

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.

Syntax

Restart-WAPackVM
       -VM <VirtualMachine>
       [-PassThru]
       [-Profile <AzureSMProfile>]
       [<CommonParameters>]

Description

These topics are deprecated and will be removed in the future. This topic describes the cmdlet in the 0.8.1 version of the Microsoft Azure PowerShell module. To find out the version of the module you're using, from the Azure PowerShell console, type (Get-Module -Name Azure).Version.

The Restart-WAPackVM cmdlet restarts virtual machines.

Examples

Example 1: Restart a virtual machine

PS C:\> $VirtualMachine = Get-WAPackVM -Name "ContosoV126"
PS C:\> Restart-WAPackVM -VM $VirtualMachine

The first command gets the virtual machine named ContosoV126 by using the Get-WAPackVM cmdlet, and then stores that object in the $VirtualMachine variable.

The second command restarts the virtual machine stored in $VirtualMachine.
