These topics are deprecated and will be removed in the future. This topic describes the cmdlet in the 0.8.1 version of the Microsoft Azure PowerShell module. To find out the version of the module you're using, from the Azure PowerShell console, type (Get-Module -Name Azure).Version.

The New-WAPackVM cmdlet creates a virtual machine.

PS C:\> $Credentials = Get-Credential PS C:\> $Template = Get-WAPackVMTemplate -Name "ContosoTemplate04"PS C:\> New-WAPackVM -Name "ContosoV023" -Template $Template -VMCredential $Credentials -Windows

The first command creates a PSCredential object, and then stores it in the $Credentials variable. The cmdlet prompts you for an account and password. For more information, type Get-Help Get-Credential.

The second command gets the virtual machine template named ContosoTemplate04 by using the Get-WAPackVMTemplate cmdlet, and then stores it in the $Template variable.

The final command creates a virtual machine named ContosoV023, based on the template stored in the $Template variable. The command specifies the Windows parameter, and, therefore, the virtual machine must run a version of the Windows operating system.

PS C:\> $Credentials = Get-Credential
PS C:\> $Template = Get-WAPackVMTemplate -Name "ContosoTemplate19"
PS C:\> New-WAPackVM -Linux -Name "ContosoV028" -Template $Template -VMCredential $Credentials

The first command creates a PSCredential object, and then stores it in the $Credentials variable.

The second command gets the virtual machine template named ContosoTemplate19 by using the Get-WAPackVMTemplate cmdlet, and then stores it in the $Template variable.

The final command creates a virtual machine named ContosoV028, based on the template stored in the $Template variable. The command specifies the Linux parameter, and, therefore, the virtual machine must run a version of the Linux operating system.

PS C:\> $OSDisk = Get-WAPackVMOSDisk -Name "ContosoDiskOS"
PS C:\> $SizeProfile = Get-WAPackVMSizeProfile -Name "MediumSizeVM"
PS C:\> New-WAPackVM -Name "ContosoV073" -OSDisk $OSDisk -VMSizeProfile $SizeProfile

The first command gets an operating system disk named ContosoDiskOS by using the Get-WAPackVMOSDisk cmdlet, and then stores it in the $OSDisk variable.

The second command gets the size profile named MediumSizeVM by using the Get-WAPackVMSizeProfile cmdlet, and then stores it in the $SizeProfile variable.

The final command creates a virtual machine named ContosoV073 from the operating system disk stored in $OSDisk and the size profile stored in $SizeProfile.

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutBuffer, -OutVariable, -PipelineVariable, -ProgressAction, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.
