Windows Azure Virtual Machine 之用程序控制Azure VM

咱們在不少時候可能會須要用程序來控制VM的建立，刪除工做。

而在這些工做之中，用程序建立一個VM將會是一個很是複雜的過程，由於他涉及到不少步驟。

具體步驟以下

1 建立一個Hosted cloud service

2 選中一個Azure 中的image 來建立對應的VHD

3 選擇一個路徑來存放這個建立的VHD

4 選擇這個VM須要開放的端口，須要遠程登陸的帳號密碼等等配置信息。

5 建立一個帶有若干個虛擬機的部署。

若是想用代碼來實現的話，如今有兩種方式

1 用REST API

2 用Management Class Library

REST API的方法，網上已經有了（詳情可參考 http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/601419/How-to-manage-Azure-IaaS-Programmatically ）

這裏就只講述 第二種方式，用 Management Class Libraries。

如下是建立Azure VM 的代碼。

 

 public static void QuickCreateVM() 
        { 
            try 
            { 
                ComputeManagementClient client = new ComputeManagementClient(cloudCredentials); 
                string vmName = "yuan2013vm"; 
 
                //STEP1:Create Hosted Service 
                //Azure VM must be hosted in a  hosted cloud service. 
                createCloudService(vmName, "East Asia", null); 
 
                //STEP2:Construct VM Role instance 
                var vmRole = new Role() 
                { 
                    RoleType = VirtualMachineRoleType.PersistentVMRole.ToString(), 
                    RoleName = vmName, 
                    Label = vmName, 
                    RoleSize = VirtualMachineRoleSize.Small, 
                    ConfigurationSets = new List<ConfigurationSet>(), 
                    OSVirtualHardDisk = new OSVirtualHardDisk() 
                    { 
                        MediaLink = getVhdUri(string.Format("{0}.blob.core.windows.net/vhds", relatedStorageAccountName)), 
                        SourceImageName = GetSourceImageNameByFamliyName("Windows Server 2012 Datacenter") 
                    } 
                }; 
 
                ConfigurationSet configSet = new ConfigurationSet 
                { 
                    ConfigurationSetType = ConfigurationSetTypes.WindowsProvisioningConfiguration, 
                    EnableAutomaticUpdates = true, 
                    ResetPasswordOnFirstLogon = false, 
                    ComputerName = vmName, 
                    AdminUserName = "UserName", 
                    AdminPassword = "Password1!", 
                    InputEndpoints = new BindingList<InputEndpoint> 
                { 
                    new InputEndpoint { LocalPort = 3389, Name = "RDP", Protocol = "tcp" }, 
                    new InputEndpoint { LocalPort = 80, Port = 80, Name = "web", Protocol = "tcp" } 
                } 
                }; 
 
                vmRole.ConfigurationSets.Add(configSet); 
                vmRole.ResourceExtensionReferences = null; 
 
                //STEP3: Add Role instance to Deployment Parmeters 
                List<Role> roleList = new List<Role>() { vmRole }; 
                VirtualMachineCreateDeploymentParameters createDeploymentParams = new VirtualMachineCreateDeploymentParameters 
                {

須要注意的問題有幾下幾點

1 "East Asia" 是數據中心的地址，你能夠在portal中建立VM的時候找到相關選項。

2 在建立Azure虛擬機的時候，它的結構與Cloud service 相似，即頂層仍是須要一個hosted service，接着是deployment，虛擬機必須在deployment之中。

3 在 Azure REST API 中有兩個方法來添加虛擬機， Add ROLE和 CreateVMDeployment，常常有人搞不清這兩個的區別，在瞭解第二點之後這裏就很好理解了。

CreateVMDeployment，是先建立一個VM Deployment，而後再向其中添加若干個VM（一般是一個）， 而ADD role 必須向已經存在的Deployment中添加VM，並且只能添加一臺。

你能夠從MSDN下載我上傳的代碼文件。
