Is it possible to autoscale an azure server that is not a part of an availability set?
Good day,
I created a server for a client but would need the RAM to be increased from 8GB to 16GB for 2 weeks out of the month then revert to 8GB automatically. Is it possible to do so if the server is not a part of an availability set? A shutdown to do the increase would be fine. We would just schedule it.

Hi Dwayne,
If you want to use auto scale feature I recommend to use Azure Scale Set. From Scale set we can configure scale out or in according to the metrics provided.
for more about scale set
pretty easy to do just create a runbook and throw a schedule on the runbook
$vm = Get-AzureRmVM -ResourceGroupName <resourceGroup> -VMName <vmName> $vm.HardwareProfile.VmSize = "<newVMsize>"
Update-AzureRmVM -VM $vm -ResourceGroupName <resourceGroup>
