Description

The Move-AzVirtualMachineToVmss cmdlet migrates a virtual machine from an Availability Set to a Flexible Virtual Machine Scale Set. This operation triggers a downtime on the virtual machine. Use this cmdlet after starting the migration with Start-AzAvailabilitySetMigration.

This feature requires the subscription to be enabled for the feature flag Microsoft.Compute/MigrateToVmssFlex.

Examples

Example 1: Migrate a virtual machine to a VMSS

Move-AzVirtualMachineToVmss -ResourceGroupName "MyResourceGroup" -Name "VM1"

This command migrates the virtual machine named VM1 in the resource group MyResourceGroup to the Flexible Virtual Machine Scale Set that was specified when migration was started.

Example 2: Migrate a virtual machine with specific target settings

Move-AzVirtualMachineToVmss -ResourceGroupName "MyResourceGroup" -Name "VM1" -TargetZone "1" -TargetFaultDomain 0 -TargetVMSize "Standard_DS2_v2"

This command migrates the virtual machine with specific target zone, fault domain, and VM size settings.

Example 3: Migrate a virtual machine using resource ID

Move-AzVirtualMachineToVmss -Id "/subscriptions/{sub-id}/resourceGroups/MyResourceGroup/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/VM1" -TargetZone "1"

This command migrates the virtual machine specified by its resource ID to zone 1.
