This template enables you to deploy a new Windows Virtual Machine on an on-premises Azure Stack HCI cluster running 23H2 or newer using the referenced Azure Marketplace image. Use the dataDisksParams parameter, you can specify one or more data disks configurations to be added to the VM. Using the domain join parameters, you can configure joining an Active Directory domain using the domain join Arc extension. The article walks you through the process and prerequisites.

Prerequisites

In order to deploy this template, there must be an operational ARC Resource Bridge associated with your Azure Stack HCI cluster. The Azure Stack HCI 23H2 and later deployment process will configure the Resource Bridge for you, but you will need to have manually created the Logical Network and Image.

  • Custom Location: This is the custom location resource representing your Azure Stack HCI Cluster in Azure. The following Virtual Network and Image resources must be associated with this custom location.
  • Azure Stack HCI Logical Network: This resource is the Azure representation of your Hyper-v virtual switch and related network configuration used for the Network Interface created for the new VM. See Azure Stack HCI Virtual Networks
  • Azure Stack HCI Image: This is a virtual machine image, created from an Azure marketplace gallery image. See Azure Stack HCI Images

Note

For simplicity, this template assumes the Custom Location, Virtual Network, and Image all reside in the same Resource Group as where the Virtual Machine is being created.
