2.1.7 Create an Azure Resource

Creating an Azure resource.

Task 1: Create a VM

1. Sign into the Azure Portal.

2. Choose "Create a Resource > Compute > Virtual Machine Create".

3. On the "Basics" tab verify and enter the information provided by the lab.

4. Select "Review and Create".

5. Select "Create".

The VM may take a few minutes to pass the "Deployment in progress..." stage. This will change to "Deployment is complete" when it is ready.

Task 2: Verify Resources Created

1. Select Home

2. Select Resource Groups

3. Select the "learn-" group.

All the resources here (except the storage account and virtual network) are created automatically by Azure and given a similar name to the VM.

In a real project, after completion it is good to identify whether the resources you created should be kept or not.
