VirtualMachinesOperations

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. >>:code:<br>For Windows, please refer to Convert a virtual machine from unmanaged disks to managed disks. <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/convert-unmanaged-to-managed-disks>_<<.:code: For Linux, please refer to Convert a virtual machine from unmanaged disks to managed disks..
begin_create_or_update	The operation to create or update a virtual machine. Please note some properties can be set only during virtual machine creation.
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.
begin_delete	The operation to delete a virtual machine.
begin_perform_maintenance	Shuts down the virtual machine, moves it to an already updated node, and powers it back on during the self-service phase of planned maintenance.
begin_power_off	The operation to power off (stop) a virtual machine. The virtual machine can be restarted with the same provisioned resources. You are still charged for this virtual machine.
begin_reapply	The operation to reapply a virtual machine's state.
begin_redeploy	Shuts down the virtual machine, moves it to a new node, and powers it back on.
