Description

The Get-AzVM cmdlet gets the model view or the instance view of an Azure virtual machine. The model view is the user specified properties of the virtual machine. The instance view is the instance level status of the virtual machine. Specify the Status parameter to get the instance view of a virtual machine instead of the model view which is the default.

Examples

Example 1: Get model properties of the virtual machine named VirtualMachine07

Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup11" -Name "VirtualMachine07"
ResourceGroupName : ResourceGroup11
Id : /subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/ResourceGroup11/providers/M
icrosoft.Compute/virtualMachines/VirtualMachine07
VmId : 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
Name : VirtualMachine07
Type : Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines
Location : eastus
Tags : {"creationSource":"acs-VirtualMachine07"}

HardwareProfile : {VmSize}
NetworkProfile : {NetworkInterfaces}
OSProfile : {ComputerName, AdminUsername, LinuxConfiguration, Secrets}
ProvisioningState : Succeeded
StorageProfile : {ImageReference, OsDisk, DataDisks}

This command gets the model view and instance view properties of the virtual machine named VirtualMachine07.

Example 2: Get instance view properties

Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup11" -Name "VirtualMachine07" -Status

This command gets properties of the virtual machine named VirtualMachine07. This command specifies the Status parameter. Therefore, the command gets only the instance view properties.

Example 3: Get properties for all virtual machines in a resource group

Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup11"
ResourceGroupName Name Location VmSize OsType NIC
----------------- ---- -------- ------ ------ ---
ResourceGroup11 test1 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test1
ResourceGroup11 test2 westus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test2
ResourceGroup11 test3 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test3

This command gets properties for all the virtual machines in the resource group named ResourceGroup11.

Example 4: Get all virtual machines in your subscription

Get-AzVM
ResourceGroupName Name Location VmSize OsType NIC
----------------- ---- -------- ------ ------ ---
TEST1 test1 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test1
TEST1 test2 westus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test2
TEST1 test3 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test3
TEST2 test4 westus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test4
TEST2 test5 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test5

This command gets all the virtual machines in your subscription.

Example 5: Get all virtual machines in the location.

Get-AzVM -Location "westus"
ResourceGroupName Name Location VmSize OsType NIC
----------------- ---- -------- ------ ------ ---
TEST1 test2 westus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test2
TEST2 test4 westus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test4

This command gets all the virtual machines in West US region.

Example 6: Get all virtual machines using filtering

Get-AzVM -Name test*
ResourceGroupName Name Location VmSize OsType NIC
----------------- ---- -------- ------ ------ ---
TEST1 test1 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test1
TEST1 test2 westus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test2
TEST1 test3 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test3
TEST2 test4 westus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test4
TEST2 test5 eastus Standard_DS1_v2 Windows test5

This command gets all virtual machines with names start with "test"

Example 7: Get VM with UserData value

Get-AzVM -ResourceGroupName <Resource Group Name> -Name <VM Name> -UserData;
ResourceGroupName : <>
Id : /subscriptions/<Subscription Id>/resourceGroups/<Resource Group Name>/providers/Microsoft
.Compute/virtualMachines/<VM Name>
VmId : <VM Id>
