Microsoft Azure

Windows Azure CLI and credentials

You first need to install node.js and NPM. This version of Perfkit Benchmarker is compatible with azure version 0.9.9.

Go here, and follow the setup instructions.

Next, run the following (omit the sudo on Windows):

$ sudo npm install azure-cli@0.9.9 -g
$ azure account download

Read the output of the previous command. It will contain a webpage URL. Open that in a browser. It will download a file (.publishsettings) file. Copy to the folder you're running PerfKit Benchmarker. In my case the file was called Free Trial-7-18-2014-credentials.publishsettings

$ azure account import [path to .publishsettings file]

Test that azure is installed correctly

$ azure vm list
