az-vm:tldr:3dfe0
This command is used to create a virtual machine (VM) in Azure using the Azure CLI (Command-Line Interface).
Here is a breakdown of the command and its options:
-
az vm create
: This is the base command for creating a virtual machine. -
--resource-group ${rg}
: This specifies the resource group in which the VM should be created. The${rg}
variable should be replaced with the actual name of the resource group. -
--name ${vm_name}
: This specifies the name of the virtual machine. The${vm_name}
variable should be replaced with the desired name of the VM. -
--image ${UbuntuLTS}
: This specifies the image or operating system to be used for the VM. The${UbuntuLTS}
variable should be replaced with the name of the desired image, in this case, it represents Ubuntu LTS (Long Term Support). -
--admin-user ${azureuser}
: This specifies the username for the admin account that will be created on the VM. The${azureuser}
variable should be replaced with the desired username. -
--generate-ssh-keys
: This option generates SSH keys for the VM. SSH keys provide a secure way to log in to the VM. If this option is not used, password-based authentication will be used instead.
Overall, this command creates a virtual machine in Azure, specifies a resource group, VM name, uses Ubuntu LTS as the image, provides an admin username, and generates SSH keys for secure login.
