Get-AzureLocation
Get-AzureLocation
Gets resource types and Azure data center locations that support them.
Syntax
Parameter Set: Default
Get-AzureLocation [-Profile <AzureProfile> ] [ <CommonParameters>]
Detailed Description
The Get-AzureLocation cmdlet gets the Azure data center locations that support each resource type. This cmdlet returns all resource types and locations.
A resource is a user-managed entity, such as a website, database server, or database. When you create a resource, you must specify a location. Not every location supports all resource types. Before you create your resources, use this cmdlet to find a location for each resource.
Azure resources are members of resource groups, which is a collection of resources that you deploys as a unit. A resource group has a location, but the group and its members do not have to be in the same location.
Parameters
-Profile<AzureProfile>
Specifies the Azure profile from which this cmdlet reads. If you do not specify a profile, this cmdlet reads from the local default profile.
