New-WAPackVMRole

  • Reference
Module:
Azure

Creates a virtual machine role.

Note

The cmdlets referenced in this documentation are for managing legacy Azure resources that use Azure Service Manager (ASM) APIs. This legacy PowerShell module isn't recommended when creating new resources since ASM is scheduled for retirement. For more information, see Azure Service Manager retirement.

The Az PowerShell module is the recommended PowerShell module for managing Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resources with PowerShell.

Syntax

New-WAPackVMRole
   -Name <String>
   -Label <String>
   -ResourceDefinition <VMRoleResourceDefinition>
   [-Profile <AzureSMProfile>]
   [<CommonParameters>]
New-WAPackVMRole
   -Name <String>
   -Label <String>
   -ResourceDefinition <VMRoleResourceDefinition>
   -CloudService <CloudService>
   [-Profile <AzureSMProfile>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

These topics are deprecated and will be removed in the future. This topic describes the cmdlet in the 0.8.1 version of the Microsoft Azure PowerShell module. To find out the version of the module you're using, from the Azure PowerShell console, type (Get-Module -Name Azure).Version.

The New-WAPackVMRole cmdlet creates a virtual machine role.

Examples

Example 1: Create a virtual machine role (emulating WAP behavior)

PS C:\> New-WAPackVMRole -Name "ContosoVMRole01" -Label "ContosoVMRoleLabel01" -ResourceDefinition $resdef

Since we do not specify any cloud service (emulating WAP behavior), the command will create a cloud service for us which will have the same name as the virtual machine role. In this case, the following command will create a virtual machine role with the name ContosoVMRole01, label ContosoVMRoleLabel01. Note that the resource definition being used here has to be manually created though PowerShell.
