VirtualMachineScaleSet interface

Describes a Virtual Machine Scale Set.

Extends

Properties

additionalCapabilities

Specifies additional capabilities enabled or disabled on the Virtual Machines in the Virtual Machine Scale Set. For instance: whether the Virtual Machines have the capability to support attaching managed data disks with UltraSSD_LRS storage account type.

automaticRepairsPolicy

Policy for automatic repairs.

constrainedMaximumCapacity

Optional property which must either be set to True or omitted.

doNotRunExtensionsOnOverprovisionedVMs

When Overprovision is enabled, extensions are launched only on the requested number of VMs which are finally kept. This property will hence ensure that the extensions do not run on the extra overprovisioned VMs.

etag

Etag is property returned in Create/Update/Get response of the VMSS, so that customer can supply it in the header to ensure optimistic updates NOTE: This property will not be serialized. It can only be populated by the server.

extendedLocation

The extended location of the Virtual Machine Scale Set.

hostGroup

Specifies information about the dedicated host group that the virtual machine scale set resides in. Minimum api-version: 2020-06-01.

identity

The identity of the virtual machine scale set, if configured.

orchestrationMode

Specifies the orchestration mode for the virtual machine scale set.

overprovision

Specifies whether the Virtual Machine Scale Set should be overprovisioned.

plan

Specifies information about the marketplace image used to create the virtual machine. This element is only used for marketplace images. Before you can use a marketplace image from an API, you must enable the image for programmatic use. In the Azure portal, find the marketplace image that you want to use and then click Want to deploy programmatically, Get Started ->. Enter any required information and then click Save.

platformFaultDomainCount

Fault Domain count for each placement group.

priorityMixPolicy

Specifies the desired targets for mixing Spot and Regular priority VMs within the same VMSS Flex instance.

provisioningState

The provisioning state, which only appears in the response. NOTE: This property will not be serialized. It can only be populated by the server.

proximityPlacementGroup

Specifies information about the proximity placement group that the virtual machine scale set should be assigned to. Minimum api-version: 2018-04-01.

resiliencyPolicy

Policy for Resiliency

scaleInPolicy

Specifies the policies applied when scaling in Virtual Machines in the Virtual Machine Scale Set.

singlePlacementGroup

When true this limits the scale set to a single placement group, of max size 100 virtual machines. NOTE: If singlePlacementGroup is true, it may be modified to false. However, if singlePlacementGroup is false, it may not be modified to true.

sku

The virtual machine scale set sku.

spotRestorePolicy

Specifies the Spot Restore properties for the virtual machine scale set.

timeCreated

Specifies the time at which the Virtual Machine Scale Set resource was created. Minimum api-version: 2021-11-01. NOTE: This property will not be serialized. It can only be populated by the server.

uniqueId

Specifies the ID which uniquely identifies a Virtual Machine Scale Set. NOTE: This property will not be serialized. It can only be populated by the server.

upgradePolicy

The upgrade policy.

virtualMachineProfile

The virtual machine profile.

zoneBalance

Whether to force strictly even Virtual Machine distribution cross x-zones in case there is zone outage. zoneBalance property can only be set if the zones property of the scale set contains more than one zone. If there are no zones or only one zone specified, then zoneBalance property should not be set.

zones

The virtual machine scale set zones. NOTE: Availability zones can only be set when you create the scale set
