Question:
In powershell I verify that it exists by calling the context.

New-AzureStorageContext -StorageAccountName "testdisks401" -StorageAccountKey "...." |
Result

When I try to set it here:
|

Set-AzureSubscription -SubscriptionName 'XXXX' -CurrentStorageAccount "testdisks401" |
I get this

Been stuck for quite a while. I basically want to write shellscript to create a VM from an existing OS disc. I managed to create a copy of an existing disc using powershell (used context from first command to make it work). But now that I am trying to create the VM configuration using this:
|
1 2 |
$vmI1 = New-AzureVMConfig -Name "TestRecover" -InstanceSize Small -AvailabilitySetName 'RDGW' -DiskName 'MY-OS-Disk-Name' |
I get this error:
|

New-AzureVMConfig : Must specify MediaLocation or set a current storage account using Set-AzureSubscription. At line:1 char:9 + $vmI1 = New-AzureVMConfig -Name "TestRecover" -InstanceSize Small -Av ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [New-AzureVMConfig], ArgumentException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.ArgumentException,Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Commands.ServiceManagement.IaaS.NewAzureVMConfigCommand |
A solution has already been provided for this which brought me here (stuck on missing storage account error).
Answer:
Set-AzureSubscription Cmdlet expects the storage account specified via -CurrentStorageAccount parameter to be a classic storage account.
Please make sure that you’re specifying a classic storage account’s name and not a resource manager storage account’s name.
