Hello:
I'm new to MS Azure (coming from the amazon aws world) and am struggling to figure out how to take a snapshot of a new VM. I can do this in AWS with a few clicks but I can't figure out how to make that happen in Azure. Any reference to snapshots and backups when doing an on-line search seem to indicate that VMS in a RESOURCE group cannot be backed up or have a snapshot created. But that doesn't seem right so I figure that I am missing something very simple.
I am looking to take the snapshots for 2 purposes. Backups and to be able to create duplicate VMs using a snapshot as a template for the new VM.
Thanks for any help in advance!
