VirtualMachineScaleSetsOperations

Constructor

VirtualMachineScaleSetsOperations(*args, **kwargs)

Methods

begin_create_or_update	Create or update a VM scale set.
begin_deallocate	Deallocates specific virtual machines in a VM scale set. Shuts down the virtual machines and releases the compute resources. You are not billed for the compute resources that this virtual machine scale set deallocates.
begin_delete	Deletes a VM scale set.
begin_delete_instances	Deletes virtual machines in a VM scale set.
begin_perform_maintenance	Perform maintenance on one or more virtual machines in a VM scale set. Operation on instances which are not eligible for perform maintenance will be failed. Please refer to best practices for more details: https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machine-scale-sets/virtual-machine-scale-sets-maintenance-notifications.
begin_power_off	Power off (stop) one or more virtual machines in a VM scale set. Note that resources are still attached and you are getting charged for the resources. Instead, use deallocate to release resources and avoid charges.
begin_reapply	Reapplies the Virtual Machine Scale Set Virtual Machine Profile to the Virtual Machine Instances.
begin_redeploy	Shuts down all the virtual machines in the virtual machine scale set, moves them to a new node, and powers them back on.
begin_reimage	Reimages (upgrade the operating system) one or more virtual machines in a VM scale set which don't have a ephemeral OS disk, for virtual machines who have a ephemeral OS disk the virtual machine is reset to initial state.
begin_reimage_all	Reimages all the disks ( including data disks ) in the virtual machines in a VM scale set. This operation is only supported for managed disks.
begin_restart	Restarts one or more virtual machines in a VM scale set.
