Hey Guys,

Could you please extend "VM Image Builder DevOps Task" by adding os-disk-size size parameter?

Best Regards,

I also just encountered this need and it seems the workaround is cumbersome.
Use case: We build an agent image with the image builder task and then use that in a VMSS (with Ephemeral OS disk and no data disk) as our Devops Agents.

When we build our stuff, we create docker images, some of which are several GiB. We do not want to deprovision the agents immediately (=> the docker layer cache should cache stuff between builds) and one agent can easily run a dozen pipelines over 2h.
A 30 GiB OS disk is too small for this. We are running them on Standard_D4ads_v5 so 150 GiB would be available. I would love to have the option to exentd the OS disk to x GiB.
