"Windows Server 2016 Datacenter - with Containers" Hangs on Extracting "microsoft/windowsservercore" layer
I run docker images from azure pipeline on virtual machine remotely. I have image that usese "microsoft/windowsservercore" image as base.
I am using "Windows Server 2016 Datacenter - with Containers" on "Standard_A2_v2"/"Standard_A4_v2" size machines with "Standard SSD". Last two weeks everything was working fine. But starting from 18.02.2019 virtual machine docker run command hangs on extracting "microsoft/windowsservercore" second layer and instead of like previously run for 7-11 minutes it runs for 35, when i run command manually over RDP or from azure pipeline. I have recreated virtual machines 3 times and process still hangs. On local Windows 10 everything works…1 vote -

add instructions for uploading local files to new VM
one of the first things a new VM user might need to do is upload files to the new VM. I had to dig deep and succeeded only in setting up RDP (by installing Xrdp on the vm); but that option has two problems:
1) this works only with a password (so don't deploy the vm with the default azureuser and key)
2) setting RDP to include local files does not give permission the logged on user to access the local filesthe workaround for 1 if you setup azureuser with a key is to add a user with a…

Export VM list from the portal with current status
Currently there is no way to export a list of VMs in a subscription to .csv while including the current status of the machine. This would be ideal for tracking large numbers of VMs across many subscriptions.

AAD Integrated login for Linux should copy files from /etc/skel on first login
Upon first login to a Linux VM using an AAD account, the files in /etc/skel, or the location stored in the SKEL variable in /etc/default/useradd, should be copied in the newly-created /home/$newuser directory. This worked correctly for a locally-created account on the same VM.

Note section or some option to chnage the name of the Virtual machine
It would really help if the name of the server can be changed from the Portal and if possible if a notes section can be added in the Virtual machine Overview Tab

Serial console enhancements
* Console pop-up might be of help along with STOP/START.
* Serial log capture should contain stop/restart ( just like Putty session ).
* Scroll would be helpful feature too. Kernel panic freezes the console and usually it would be a bit late by naked eye capturing.
Thanks much

Azure Virtual Machine Scale Set
The ability to select and register the Azure Virtual Machine Scale Set to Azure Automation DSC. Currently you are only able to select Virtual Machines. This becomes a problem when you need to refresh the key after a year has expired.

Proper Debug log for Extensions
Could be possible to create a debug menu something similar like VSTS pipelines debug menus, is completely depressing and disheartening to start digging on Extensions logs unformatted and start digging on the VM for this.

Reduce ajax
Reduce ajax usage on VM list page.
When you open the page it can take a minute or two show the required data.
If you scroll up and down or have custom fields like private IP it takes even longer.
Having to keep waiting for data to load is really annoying

In-Place OS Upgrade in Azure
It would be nice to see In-Place OS Upgrade in Azure. Currently we are working on a project to replace all VM with OS Windows 2008 because
Microsoft will be officially ending its support for Windows Server 2008 R2 editions. The problem we are facing is we don't have support from vendor to reinstall the application on new platform and the only workaround offered by Microsoft are as following:1. Create an Azure VM that's running a supported version of an operating system, and then migrate the workload (Method 1)
2. Download and upgrade the VHD of the VM (Method…2 votes -
Close the security hole allowing outbound traffic to any server on the internet on TCP port 1688 from any Azure IaaS VM
NSG 'deny' rules ignore TCP port 1688.
It is possible to exflitrate [i.e. steal] confidential data from any Azure IaaS VM (via the internet) to a server running an arbitrary service on TCP port 1688.
Example:
1. Deploy an SSH/SFTP server running on port 1688 in your home or another cloud service
2. As a legitimate user of an Azure IaaS deployment, logon to an Azure VM (RDP or Citrix servers commonly allow user-logons)
3. Transfer confidential data from the Azure IaaS VM to your private server on port 16881 vote -
Azure VM's security alerts come as high level without checking the Disk OS whether it is supported or not.
On our Azure portal, we do get alerts that the VM is not encrypted and it should be encrypted, but when we try to encrypt, it shows that the VM OS version is not supported. I would suggest to check the OS version before raising an alert , it became a false alarm for us.
I cannot remove the security alert on this VM, Can you enable this.

it does not allow size in a virtual machine
I have created a virtual machine with a free 30 day trial of Azure (with credit 161.90), following the instructions of Microsoft but at the time of selecting the size in select size
It shows me the following image ...
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/quick-create-portal?WT.mc_id=UI_empg
I do not understand why the size of the vm can not be created.
