King III (@jeking3)azure.azcollection.azure_rm_virtualmachine (2.3.0) — module
Install with ansible-galaxy collection install azure.azcollection:==2.3.0
collections: - name: azure.azcollection version: 2.3.0
Manage and configure virtual machines (VMs) and associated resources on Azure.
Requires a resource group containing at least one virtual network with at least one subnet.
Supports images from the Azure Marketplace, which can be discovered with M(azure.azcollection.azure_rm_virtualmachineimage_info).
Supports custom images since Ansible 2.5.
To use I(custom_data) on a Linux image, the image must have cloud-init enabled. If cloud-init is not enabled, I(custom_data) is ignored.
