NAME Set-AzureVMSize
SYNOPSIS
Sets the size of an Azure virtual machine.
SYNTAX
Set-AzureVMSize [-InstanceSize] <String> -VM <IPersistentVM> [-Profile <AzureSMProfile>] [-InformationAction <ActionPreference>] [-InformationVariable
<String>] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
The Set-AzureVMSize cmdlet updates the size of a virtual machine. It has two parameters: InstanceSize, which is the new size of the virtual machine, and
VM, which is a virtual machine object retrieved by using the Get-AzureVM cmdlet. The result of Set-AzureVMSize can be piped to the Update-AzureVM cmdlet
or stored in a variable for later use. No actual change is made until Update-AzureVM is executed.
Note: This cmdlet will require the virtual machine to be re-provisioned and it might get a new IP address.
