NOTES









Example 1: Enable diagnostics using a storage account specified in a diagnostics configuration file



PS C:\\> Set-AzureRmVMDiagnosticsExtension -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -VMName "VirtualMachine02" -DiagnosticsConfigurationPath

"diagnostics_publicconfig.xml"



This command uses a diagnostics configuration file to enable diagnostics. The file diagnostics_publicconfig.xml contains the public XML

configuration for the diagnostics extension including the name of the storage account to which diagnostics data will be sent. The diagnostics

storage account must be in the same subscription as the virtual machine.





Example 2: Enable diagnostics using a storage account name



PS C:\\> Set-AzureRmVMDiagnosticsExtension -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup1" -VMName "VirtualMachine2" -DiagnosticsConfigurationPath

diagnostics_publicconfig.xml -StorageAccountName "MyStorageAccount"



This command uses the storage account name to enable diagnostics. If the diagnostics configuration does not specify a storage account name or if

you want to override the diagnostics storage account name specified in the configuration file, use the StorageAccountName parameter. The

diagnostics storage account must be in the same subscription as the virtual machine.





Example 3: Enable diagnostics using storage account name and key



PS C:\\> Set-AzureRmVMDiagnosticsExtension -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -VMName "VirtualMachine02" -DiagnosticsConfigurationPath

"diagnostics_publicconfig.xml" -StorageAccountName "MyStorageAccount" -StorageAccountKey $storage_key



This command uses the storage account name and key to enable diagnostics. If the diagnostics storage account is in a different subscription than

the virtual machine then enable sending diagnostics data to that storage account by explicitly specifying its name and key.
