create server does not install azure vm agent

Question

create server does not install azure vm agent

Closed this issue 8 years ago · 7 comments

Hi,

I created two azure VM´s (classic). One manually in the portal, one with knife-azure and the same parameters (imageId etc.) and the manual one has the azure vm agent installed, the knife-azure deployed one not. So remote-access is not possible.

Cheers
Christian

Did you specify the --bootstrap-protocol 'cloud-api' as directed here: https://github.com/chef/knife-azure#cloud-api-bootstrap-feature ?

Or were you talking about the VM agent itself (the lack of this would mean no endpoints would be opened if I remember correctly)?

Hey, I tried both. The msi and the cloud API. Both have no in vm agent installed in the new vm but the manual created one has.

@cjohannsen81 If I am getting it correctly you are not able to access the vm remotely. I verified that 'ProvisionGuestAgent' is set to true by knife-azure as mentioned here in docs so its not about vm agent. Use --tcp-endpoints option to open ssh or rdp port. And let me know that solves your issue.

@cjohannsen81 closing this for now. If you face the issue even using --tcp-endpoints option as mentioned above you can re-open this issue and provide us the details of command that you are trying
