有没有办法在 azure 中创建一个 PowerShell 脚本在虚拟机空闲时间自动停止虚拟机？

Question

Please suggest me the powershell script to stop a virtual machine IN AZURE when it attains given maximum idle time and after that it must automatically starts running when the user logs into that virtual machine?

Answer 1

One way to accomplish this is to create a scheduled task inside the VM. That scheduled task will trigger when the machine is idle. The script the task will run is:

Stop-AzVM -Name <VM name> -ResourceGroupName <RG Name> -Force

As for the second part of starting when a user logs on, that is not possible. The VM will be off/de-allocated, there is nothing to log on to.

NOTE: the VM that has the scheduled task will also need the Azure Powershell modules installed on it and a system managed identity .
