Assignment : PowerShell Azure resource

Management
TASK 1: Create a new resource group named MyResourceGroup in the
Azure region of your choice using PowerShell

We use the variable to use the variable to store the value

$resourceGroupName = "MyResourceGroup"
$location = "EastUS"
Command used: New-AzResourceGroup -Name $resourceGroupName -
Location $location
TASK 2: Within the MyResourceGroup, create a new storage account named
mystorageaccount with the following configurations: SKU: Standard_LRS Kind:
StorageV2

Create variable to store the values

$storageAccount = “newstorage7878”
$sku_name = “Standard_LRS”
$kind = “StorageV2”

Command used: New-AzStorageAccount -ResourceGroupName

$resourceGroupName -Name $storageAccount -SkuName $sku_name -Kind
$kind -Location $location
Task 3: Create a new virtual machine named MyVM in the MyResourceGroup
with the following specifications:
Image: Windows Server 2019 Datacenter
VM Size: Standard_DS1_v2
Username: azureuser
Password: <any password>

Command used: New-AzVM `

-ResourceGroupName "MyResourceGroup" `

-Size "Standard_DS1_v2" `
-Credential (Get-Credential -UserName "azureuser" -Message "Enter your

-Location "EastUS"

This command will prompt you to enter the password for the "azureuser"
account and then create a virtual machine with the specified image, size,
username, and password in the "MyResourceGroup" resource group.

# Get the VM and network interface objects

$vm = Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -Name $vmName
$networkInterface = Get-AzNetworkInterface -ResourceGroupName
$resourceGroupName -Name $networkInterfaceName

# Attach the network interface to the VM

$vm | Add-AzVMNetworkInterface -Id $networkInterface.Id
# Update the VM
Update-AzVM -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroupName -VM $vm
