Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  • name - (Required) The name of the instance. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • description - (Optional) The description for the associated hosted service. Changing this forces a new resource to be created (defaults to the instance name).

  • image - (Required) The name of an existing VM or OS image to use for this instance. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • size - (Required) The size of the instance.

  • subnet - (Optional) The name of the subnet to connect this instance to. If a value is supplied virtual_network is required. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • virtual_network - (Optional) The name of the virtual network the subnet belongs to. If a value is supplied subnet is required. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • location - (Required) The location/region where the cloud service is created. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • automatic_updates - (Optional) If true this will enable automatic updates. This attribute is only used when creating a Windows instance. Changing this forces a new resource to be created (defaults false)

  • time_zone - (Optional) The appropriate time zone for this instance in the format 'America/Los_Angeles'. This attribute is only used when creating a Windows instance. Changing this forces a new resource to be created (defaults false)

  • username - (Required) The username of a new user that will be created while creating the instance. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • password - (Optional) The password of the new user that will be created while creating the instance. Required when creating a Windows instance or when not supplying an ssh_key_thumbprint while creating a Linux instance. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.
