azcmagent genkey
Generates a private-public key pair that can be used to onboard a machine asynchronously. This command is used when connecting a server to an Azure Arc-enabled virtual machine offering (for example, Azure Arc-enabled VMware vSphere VMs). You should normally use azcmagent connect to configure the agent.
Usage
azcmagent genkey [flags]
Examples
Generate a key pair and print the public key to the console.
azcmagent genkey
Flags
Common flags available for all commands
--config
Takes in a path to a JSON or YAML file containing inputs to the command. The configuration file should contain a series of key-value pairs where the key matches an available command line option. For example, to pass in the --verbose
flag, the configuration file would look like:
{
"verbose": true
}
If a command line option is found in both the command invocation and a configuration file, the value specified on the command line will take precedence.
-h
, --help
Get help for the current command, including its syntax and command line options.
-j

--log-stderr
Redirect error and verbose messages to the standard error (stderr) stream. By default, all output is sent to the standard output (stdout) stream.
--no-color
Disable color output for terminals that do not support ANSI colors.
-v
, --verbose
Show more detailed logging information while the command executes. Useful for troubleshooting issues when running a command.
