Example: Create a virtual machine from a vm template
This simple example creates a virtual machine from a vm template. Besides the mandatory StampId and CloudId properties, the VMTemplateId property should be set to the GUID of the vm template that you want to create an instance of.
For more information about how to get started with using the code examples provided in this programming guide, see Program in Visual Studio with the Windows Azure Pack IaaS Resource Provider [SPFSDK].
Guid vmTemplateId = new Guid("34f5a0a7-316b-443c-9859-788a08c02409");
Guid stampId = new Guid("d70c1a9b-c241-48f5-880a-b6c36071e653");
Guid cloudId = new Guid("10f8e459-e7c3-4c40-b47c-b8f758ef4dc1");
SpfVMM.VirtualMachine vm = new SpfVMM.VirtualMachine();
vm.Name = "Tenent Test Virtual Machine 1";
vm.VMTemplateId = vmTemplateId;
vm.StampId = stampId;
vm.CloudId = cloudId;
vmmService.AddToVirtualMachines(vm);
vmmService.SaveChanges();

Example: Create a virtual machine from a virtual hard disk
This simple example creates a virtual machine from an existing VHD. Besides the mandatory StampId and CloudId properties, the VirtualHardDiskId property should be set to the GUID of a VHD in the library associated with the cloud. This will cause the VHD to be cloned and used as the main hard drive of the virtual machine.
For more information about how to get started with using the code examples provided in this programming guide, see Program in Visual Studio with the Windows Azure Pack IaaS Resource Provider [SPFSDK].
