Day 20: Deploy Azure Resources Using ARM Template

On my day 20 on 100 Days of Cloud (Azure), I started it along with the AWS but now my Azure is a little bit behind. Prolly, I just prefer color orange 😂.

In this lab, there was a file given already which is /root/arm-templates/vnet-deployment-template.json. I just need to update and deploy it.

1. Use an editor

I’m much more comfortable using vim editor

vim /root/arm-templates/vnet-deployment-template.json

2. Update according with the lab’s instruction

common commands:

**i – Start typing (Insert**).

**Esc – Stop typing (Normal** mode).

**h/j/k/l – Move around (Left/Down/Up/Right**).

**u – Undo** a mistake.

**:wq – Save and quit (or `:q!`** to bail)

  "contentVersion": "1.0.0.0",
  "parameters": {},
  "functions": [],
  "variables": {},
  "resources": [
    {
      "name": "arm-vnet-nautilus",
      "type": "Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks",
      "apiVersion": "2023-11-01",
      "location": "[resourceGroup().location]",
      "tags": {
        "displayName": "arm-vnet-nautilus",
        "Environment": "KKE-nautilus"
      },
      "properties": {
        "addressSpace": {
          "addressPrefixes": [
            "192.168.0.0/16"
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  "outputs": {}
}

3. Get Resource Group (as instructed)

Run:

az group list --query '[].name' --output table | grep -i nautilus

• Copy the correct resource group name from output.

4. Deploy the Template

Use this command:

az deployment group create \
  --resource-group <RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME> \
  --template-file <file path>

az deployment group create \
  --resource-group kml_rg_main-fde760d07f3f4684 \
  --template-file /root/arm-templates/vnet-deployment-template.json

5. Confirming the details are correct

az network vnet show \
  --name arm-vnet-nautilus \
  --resource-group kml_rg_main-fde760d07f3f4684 \
  --query "{Name:name, AddressSpace:join(',', addressSpace.addressPrefixes), DisplayName:tags.displayName, Environment:tags.Environment}" \
  --output table
