Azure Virtual Machine Operating System Disks and Images
Virtual Hard Disks are used to store the operating systems and data in a virtual machine. The most important work of Virtual Hard Disks is that they help to choose an image for installing an OS.
Azure gives us many marketplace images from which we can use different types of Windows server operating systems. We can identify the marketplace images by the offer, SKU, and image publisher as well.
There are different methods by which we can find the details about the image:
- The first method is directly we can see the values from the Azure portal. When we choose an image to use the details of the image are automatically specified.
- Another method is that we can use Azure PowerShell and use Get-AzVMImagePublisher. It gives help us can know the specifications of the image we have to select.
