Tools for using Azure and Azure Stack

To use these tools, obtain Azure Stack compatible Azure PowerShell module. Unless you've installed from other sources, one way to do it is to obtain from public package repositories as follows. Note that both of these could still be used to operate against Azure as well as Azure Stack, but may lack some of the latest Azure features.

For PowerShell, install the following:

Install-Module -Name 'AzureRm.Bootstrapper' -Scope CurrentUser
Install-AzureRmProfile -profile '2017-03-09-profile' -Force -Scope CurrentUser
Install-Module -Name AzureStack -RequiredVersion 1.2.9 -Scope CurrentUser

Obtain the tools by cloning the git repository.

git clone https://github.com/Azure/AzureStack-Tools.git --recursive
cd AzureStack-Tools

Otherwise download the tools as follows:

invoke-webrequest https://github.com/Azure/AzureStack-Tools/archive/master.zip -OutFile master.zip
expand-archive master.zip -DestinationPath . -Force
cd AzureStack-Tools-master
