--max

Max nodes count for the auto-scale cluster.

--min

Min nodes count for the auto-scale cluster.

--nfs

Name or ARM ID of a file server to be mounted on each cluster node. You need to provide full ARM ID if the file server belongs to a different workspace. Multiple NFS can be mounted using configuration file (see --config-file option).

--setup-task-output

Directory path to store where setup-task's logs. Note, Batch AI will create several helper directories under this path. The created directories are reported as stdOutErrPathSuffix by 'az cluster show' command.

It will also create Azure File Share with name "batchaishare", Azure Blob Container with name "batchaicontainer". The File Share and Blob Container will be mounted on each cluster node at $AZ_BATCHAI_MOUNT_ROOT/autoafs and $AZ_BATCHAI_MOUNT_ROOT/autobfs. If the resource group already exists and contains an approapriate storage account belonging to the same region as cluster, this command will reuse existing storage account.
