Syntax

Start-AzureBatchPoolResize
     [-Id] <String>
     [-TargetDedicatedComputeNodes <Int32>]
     [-TargetLowPriorityComputeNodes <Int32>]
     [-ResizeTimeout <TimeSpan>]

     [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Start-AzureBatchPoolResize cmdlet starts an Azure Batch resize operation on a pool.

Examples

Example 1: Resize a pool to 12 nodes

PS C:\>Start-AzureBatchPoolResize -Id "ContosoPool06" -TargetDedicatedComputeNodes 12 -BatchContext $Context

This command starts a resize operation on the pool that has the ID ContosoPool06. The target for the operation is 12 dedicated compute nodes. Use the Get-AzureRmBatchAccountKeys cmdlet to assign a context to the $Context variable.

Example 2: Resize a pool using a deallocation option

PS C:\>Get-AzureBatchPool -Id "ContosoPool06" -BatchContext $Context | Start-AzureBatchPoolResize -TargetDedicatedComputeNodes 5 -ResizeTimeout ([TimeSpan]::FromHours(1)) -ComputeNodeDeallocationOption ([Microsoft.Azure.Batch.Common.ComputeNodeDeallocationOption]::Terminate) -BatchContext $Context

This cmdlet resizes a pool to five dedicated compute nodes. The command gets the pool that has the ID ContosoPool06 by using the Get-AzureBatchPool cmdlet. The command passes that pool object to the current cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The command starts a resize operation on the pool. The target is five dedicated compute nodes. The command specifies time-out period of one hour. The command specifies a deallocation option of Terminate.

Parameters

-BatchContext

Specifies the BatchAccountContext instance that this cmdlet uses to interact with the Batch service. If you use the Get-AzureRmBatchAccount cmdlet to get your BatchAccountContext, then Microsoft Entra authentication will be used when interacting with the Batch service. To use shared key authentication instead, use the Get-AzureRmBatchAccountKeys cmdlet to get a BatchAccountContext object with its access keys populated. When using shared key authentication, the primary access key is used by default. To change the key to use, set the BatchAccountContext.KeyInUse property.
