PowerShell script for stop application in remote server, which is domain joined. Not workgrou server
Hello Team, I am working one of the customer enterprise environment azure cloud automation tasks. From azure perspective past couple of days working and trying to setup lot of things including Azure Runbook. I am trying to create a powershell script/workflow to place in Azure Runbooks and then execute. The Runbook(script) will be scheduled, once executed it's need to stop running application inside remote server. The remote server is domain joined not an work group. Similar way in coming days decided to create disk space cleanup using script through Runbook. I have searched many articles and not able to find any sample scripts and there is no proper guidance with steps to follow and create. So can you please check and let me know, this kind of functionality is available in azure Runbooks or not?. If the answer is YES then share me exact scripts which ever available from your team. Otherwise share some ideas with sample commands to connect the machine and stop running application .exe. Other one cleaning temporary files in C:\ drive, Let me know this post is not understandable or any clarification required. Thanks Jaga
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.PowerShell: Find VNet of an ARM VM
Hi everyone, it took me quite some time to find a way to get the VNet an ARM VM belongs to by using PowerShell. I don't think this is the perfect solution, but I would like to share it in order someone else needs to find out. I would be interested in better ways of getting attached networks. I will start the discussion with this code snippet $vnets= Get-AzureRmVirtualNetwork $vm = Get-AzureRmVM -name $newVm.Name -ResourceGroupName $newRG $vmIPId = $vm.NetworkProfile.NetworkInterfaces.Id foreach ($vnet in $vnets){ $vnetIPId = $vnet.Subnets.IpConfigurations.Id if ($vnetIPId.Startswith($vmIPId) ){ $vnetName = $vnet.Name return } } Cheers ChristianAzure Automation overview
Microsoft Azure Automation provides a way for users to automate the manual, long-running, error-prone, and frequently repeated tasks that are commonly performed in a cloud and enterprise environment. It saves time and increases the reliability of regular administrative tasks and even schedules them to be automatically performed at regular intervals. You can automate processes using runbooks or automate configuration management using Desired State Configuration. This article provides brief overview of Azure Automation and answers some common questions about automation and Desired State Configuration (DSC) .
