VirtualMachineConfiguration Class

The configuration for Compute Nodes in a Pool based on the Azure Virtual Machines infrastructure.

Constructor

VirtualMachineConfiguration(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any)

Variables

Name	Description
image_reference	BatchVmImageReference A reference to the Azure Virtual Machines Marketplace Image or the custom Virtual Machine Image to use. Required.
node_agent_sku_id	str The SKU of the Batch Compute Node agent to be provisioned on Compute Nodes in the Pool. The Batch Compute Node agent is a program that runs on each Compute Node in the Pool, and provides the command-and-control interface between the Compute Node and the Batch service. There are different implementations of the Compute Node agent, known as SKUs, for different operating systems. You must specify a Compute Node agent SKU which matches the selected Image reference. To get the list of supported Compute Node agent SKUs along with their list of verified Image references, see the 'List supported Compute Node agent SKUs' operation. Required.
windows_configuration	WindowsConfiguration Windows operating system settings on the virtual machine. This property must not be specified if the imageReference property specifies a Linux OS Image.
data_disks	list[DataDisk] The configuration for data disks attached to the Compute Nodes in the Pool. This property must be specified if the Compute Nodes in the Pool need to have empty data disks attached to them. This cannot be updated. Each Compute Node gets its own disk (the disk is not a file share). Existing disks cannot be attached, each attached disk is empty. When the Compute Node is removed from the Pool, the disk and all data associated with it is also deleted. The disk is not formatted after being attached, it must be formatted before use - for more information see https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machines/linux/classic/attach-disk#initialize-a-new-data-disk-in-linux and https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machines/windows/attach-disk-ps#add-an-empty-data-disk-to-a-virtual-machine.
license_type	str This only applies to Images that contain the Windows operating system, and should only be used when you hold valid on-premises licenses for the Compute Nodes which will be deployed. If omitted, no on-premises licensing discount is applied. Values are: Windows_Server (the on-premises license is for Windows Server) and Windows_Client (the on-premises license is for Windows Client).
container_configuration	BatchContainerConfiguration The container configuration for the Pool. If specified, setup is performed on each Compute Node in the Pool to allow Tasks to run in containers. All regular Tasks and Job manager Tasks run on this Pool must specify the containerSettings property, and all other Tasks may specify it.
disk_encryption_configuration	DiskEncryptionConfiguration The disk encryption configuration for the pool. If specified, encryption is performed on each node in the pool during node provisioning.
node_placement_configuration	BatchNodePlacementConfiguration The node placement configuration for the pool. This configuration will specify rules on how nodes in the pool will be physically allocated.
extensions	list[VMExtension] The virtual machine extension for the pool. If specified, the extensions mentioned in this configuration will be installed on each node.
os_disk	BatchOsDisk Settings for the operating system disk of the Virtual Machine.
security_profile	SecurityProfile Specifies the security profile settings for the virtual machine or virtual machine scale set.
service_artifact_reference	ServiceArtifactReference Specifies the service artifact reference id used to set same image version for all virtual machines in the scale set when using 'latest' image version. The service artifact reference id in the form of /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.Compute/galleries/{galleryName}/serviceArtifacts/{serviceArtifactName}/vmArtifactsProfiles/{vmArtifactsProfilesName}.
