Deployment of Red Hat Enterprise Linux VM (RHEL 7.2 or RHEL 6.7)

Description

This is an Azure quickstart sample PowerShell script based on ARM template 101-vm-simple-rhel  from the repository azure\azure-quickstart-templates .

This script allows deploying a Red Hat Enterprise Linux VM (RHEL 7.2 or RHEL 6.7), using the latest image for the selected RHEL version. This will deploy a Standard A2 VM in the location of your chosen resource group with an additional 100 GiB data disk attached to the VM, and it will deploy the following resources…

… and in-addition to it, just in-case if the deployment is not successful, then it will rollback the entire deployment.

Note:

If the specified resource group is already exist then the script will not continue with the deployment.

Syntax

Deploy-AzResource.ps1 [-ResourceGroupName] <string> [-Location] <string> [-VMName] <string> [-AdminUsername] <string> [[-Authenticationtype] <string>] [[-AdminPassword] <securestring>] [[-KeyFileName] <string>] [<CommonParameters>]

I 💙 PS> $param = @{
>> ResourceGroupName = 'compute-rg'
