Recently I was using the script here<\/a> to upload a VHD to Azure for Deployment to a VM<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon the upload or the file<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New-AzVM -VM $vm -ResourceGroupName $resourceGroup -Location $location<\/p>\n\n\n\n

i got<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ErrorCode: InvalidParameter
ErrorMessage: Required parameter \u2018storageProfile\u2019 is missing (null).
ErrorTarget: storageProfile
StatusCode: 400
ReasonPhrase: Bad Request<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The script needs changing , I removed the need for the Azure Image and it does it directly from the uploaded VHD<\/p>\n\n\n
