Migrate the Classic Image to ARM
First get the VM disks storage path.
OS disk : https://xxxx.blob.core.windows.net/vhds/PublicServer-os-2017-03-06-BC0F1E4.vhd
Disk 1 :-
https://xxxx.blob.core.windows.net/vhds/PublicServer-datadisk-0-2017-03-06-BC0F1E4.vhd
Disk 2 :
https://xxxx.blob.core.windows.net/vhds/PublicServer-datadisk-1-2017-03-06-BC0F1E4.vhd
In another ARM, Create a Storage & Container
New ARM Stroage account Name : magnatemplate
Container Name : https://template.blob.core.windows.net/temcon
Download & Install the Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer tool and add both the accounts in that tool and found the source disks & copy in to the destination disk
Create a VM from a specialized VHD disk using this https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/resources/templates/201-vm-specialized-vhd/
and Click Deploy to Azure in ARM portal
Once VM has deployed, We need to create the image from that VM
using below link to make the sysprep and create a VM
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/virtual-machines-windows-generalize-vhd?toc=%2fazure%2fvirtual-machines%2fwindows%2ftoc.json
Prerequisites to take the Image :
Log in to Azure PowerShell
Open Azure PowerShell and sign in to your Azure account.
Copy
PowerShell
Login-AzureRmAccount
A pop-up window opens for you to enter your Azure account credentials.
Get the subscription IDs for your available subscriptions.
Copy
PowerShell
Get-AzureRmSubscription
Set the correct subscription using the subscription ID.
Copy
PowerShell
Select-AzureRmSubscription -SubscriptionId "<subscriptionID>"
Deallocate the VM and set the state to generalized
Deallocate the VM resources.
Copy
PowerShell
Stop-AzureRmVM -ResourceGroupName <resourceGroup> -Name <vmName>
The Status for the VM in the Azure portal changes from Stopped to Stopped (deallocated).
Set the status of the virtual machine to Generalized.
Copy
PowerShell
Set-AzureRmVm -ResourceGroupName <resourceGroup> -Name <vmName> -Generalized
Check the status of the VM. The OSState/generalized section for the VM should have the DisplayStatus set to VM generalized.
Copy
PowerShell
$vm = Get-AzureRmVM -ResourceGroupName <resourceGroup> -Name <vmName> -Status
$vm.Statuses
Command to create the image
Save-AzureRmVMImage -ResourceGroupName -Singapore-ARM -Name magnapritemplate -DestinationContainerName magnatemcon -VHDNamePrefix cis1 -Path C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\New folder\Filename.json
You can get the output :
OperationId :
Status : Succeeded
Once created the image, go back to ARM portal again and more services -> templates-> add template-> General information->mention some name there, then ARM template-> (Open Filename.json file which is copied in local drive and copy & paste) in to the arm template
click add..
Deploy a VM :
More Services -> templates -> click the template which we created and there click deploy options and start to deploy
