Description
The Update-AzVM cmdlet updates the state of an Azure virtual machine to the state of a virtual machine object.
Examples
Example 1: Update a virtual machine
Update-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup11" -VM $VirtualMachine
This command updates the virtual machine, $VirtualMachine, in ResourceGroup11. The command updates it by using the virtual machine object stored in the $VirtualMachine variable. To obtain a virtual machine object, use the Get-AzVM cmdlet.
Example 2: Update a virtual machine to disable hyperthreading.
$resourceGroupName = 'Resource Group Name>'
$vmname = 'Virtual Machine Name';
$domainNameLabel = "d1" + $rgname;
$vCPUsCoreInitial = 2;
$vCPUsAvailableInitial = 4;
$vCPUsCore1 = 1;
$vCPUsAvailable1 = 1;
$vmSize = 'Standard_D4s_v4';
$securePassword = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "****" -AsPlainText -Force;
$user = "user";
$cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential ($user, $securePassword);
$vm = New-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $rgname -Name $vmname -Credential $cred -DomainNameLabel $domainNameLabel -Size $vmSize -vCPUCountPerCore $vCPUsCoreInitial -vCPUCountAvailable $vCPUsAvailableInitial;
# The $vm.HardwareProfile.VmSizeProperties.VCPUsPerCore property is 2, and the $vm.HardwareProfile.VmSizeProperties.VCPUsAvailable property is 4.
Update-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $rgname -VM $vm -vCPUCountAvailable $vCPUsAvailable1 -vCPUCountPerCore $vCPUsCore1;
# The $vm.HardwareProfile.VmSizeProperties.VCPUsPerCore property is 1, and the $vm.HardwareProfile.VmSizeProperties.VCPUsAvailable property is 1.
# Hyperthreading is now disabled for this VM.
