Constructor

VirtualMachinesOperations(*args, **kwargs)

Methods

begin_capture

Captures the VM by copying virtual hard disks of the VM and outputs a template that can be used to create similar VMs.

begin_convert_to_managed_disks

Converts virtual machine disks from blob-based to managed disks. Virtual machine must be stop-deallocated before invoking this operation.

begin_create_or_update

The operation to create or update a virtual machine.

begin_deallocate

Shuts down the virtual machine and releases the compute resources. You are not billed for the compute resources that this virtual machine uses.
