Azure Cli Script

Here is a basic Azure CLI script that should help you with your requirements. Please replace , , , and  with your actual values.

#!/bin/bash

# 1. Verifying the Azure Subscription
az account set --subscription 

# 2. Validating the VM's Tag Values
vm_tags=$(az vm show --resource-group  --name  --query tags)
echo "VM's Tags: $vm_tags"

# Check if a specific tag exists
if [[ $vm_tags == *""* ]]; then
  echo "Tag exists."
else
  echo "Tag does not exist."
fi

# 3. Checking VM Status (Running / Deallocated)
vm_status=$(az vm get-instance-view --name  --resource-group  --query instanceView.statuses[1] --output tsv)
echo "VM Status: $vm_status"

# 4. If deallocated, start the VM
if [[ $vm_status == *"deallocated"* ]]; then
  echo "Starting VM..."
  az vm start --resource-group  --name 
else
  echo "VM is already running."
fi

This script assumes that you’re already logged in to Azure CLI. If not, you’ll need to log in using az login before running this script. Also, please note that this is a basic script, and you might need to modify it according to your specific needs or handle errors and edge cases as necessary. Always test scripts in a safe environment before using them in production.

Remember to replace , , , and  with your actual values.  is your Azure Subscription ID,  is the name of the resource group where your VM is located,  is the name of your VM, and  is the name of the tag you want to validate.

Thanks

Hello,

 

az account show --output table

tagValue=$(az vm show --resource-group  --name  --query tags --output tsv)
[ -z "$tagValue" ] && echo "VM tags are missing or empty." || echo "VM tags are set as: $tagValue"

vmStatus=$(az vm show --resource-group  --name  --query powerState --output tsv)

if [ "$vmStatus" == "VM deallocated" ]; then
    az vm start --resource-group  --name 
elif [ "$vmStatus" == "VM running" ]; then
    echo "VM is running."
else
    echo "Unable to determine VM status."
fi

echo "Script execution completed."
