Description
The Add-AzVmssExtension cmdlet adds an extension to the Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS).
Examples
Example 1: Add an extension to the VMSS
Add-AzVmssExtension -VirtualMachineScaleSet $VMSS -Name $ExtName -Publisher $Publisher -Type $ExtType -TypeHandlerVersion $ExtVer -AutoUpgradeMinorVersion $True
This command adds an extension to the VMSS.
Example 2: Add an extension to the VMSS with settings and protected settings
$Settings = @{"fileUris" = "[]"; "commandToExecute" = ""};
$ProtectedSettings = @{"storageAccountName" = $stoname; "storageAccountKey" = $stokey};
Add-AzVmssExtension -VirtualMachineScaleSet $vmss -Name $vmssExtensionName -Publisher $vmssPublisher `
-Type $vmssExtensionType -TypeHandlerVersion $ExtVer -AutoUpgradeMinorVersion $True `
-Setting $Settings -ProtectedSetting $ProtectedSettings
Example 3: Add an extension to the VMSS with settings and protected settings
$BatchFile = "runbook.sh"
$ResourceGroupName = "HelloRG"
$VMScaleSetName = "HelloVmSS"
$TypeHandlerVersion = 2.1
#Best Practice for securd paramaters.
$protectedSettings = @{
"managedIdentity" = @{ "clientId" = "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"};
}
$publicSettings = @{
"fileUris"= (,"https://storage.blob.core.windows.net/itfiles/$($BatchFile)");
"commandToExecute"= "sh $($BatchFile)"
}
# Get information about the scale set
$vmss = Get-AzVmss `
-ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName `
-VMScaleSetName $VMScaleSetName
Add-AzVmssExtension -VirtualMachineScaleSet $vmss `
-Name "CustomScript" `
-Publisher "Microsoft.Azure.Extensions" `
-Type "CustomScript" `
-TypeHandlerVersion $TypeHandlerVersion `
-AutoUpgradeMinorVersion $true `
-Setting $publicSettings `
-ProtectedSetting $protectedSettings
Update-AzVmss `
-ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName `
-Name $VMScaleSetName `
-VirtualMachineScaleSet $vmss
This command adds an extension to the VMSS with a sample bash script on a blob storage, specify the url of blob storage and executable command in settings and security access in protected settings.
