Count virtual machines by OS type

Building on the previous query, we're still limiting by Azure resources of type Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines, but are no longer limiting the number of records returned. Instead, we used summarize and count() to define how to group and aggregate the values by property, which in this example is properties.storageProfile.osDisk.osType. For an example of how this string looks in the full object, see explore resources - virtual machine discovery.

Count virtual machines by OS type with extend

A different way to write the 'Count virtual machines by OS type' query is to extend a property and give it a temporary name for use within the query, in this case os. os is then used by summarize and count() as in the referenced example.

| extend os = properties.storageProfile.osDisk.osType

Get virtual machine scale set capacity and size

This query looks for virtual machine scale set resources and gets various details including the virtual machine size and the capacity of the scale set. The query uses the toint() function to cast the capacity to a number so that it can be sorted. Finally, the columns are renamed into custom named properties.

List all extensions installed on a virtual machine

First, this query uses extend on the virtual machines resource type to get the ID in uppercase (toupper()) the ID, get the operating system name and type, and get the virtual machine size. Getting the resource ID in uppercase is a good way to prepare to join to another property. Then, the query uses join with kind as leftouter to get virtual machine extensions by matching an uppercase substring of the extension ID. The portion of the ID before "/extensions/<ExtensionName>" is the same format as the virtual machines ID, so we use this property for the join. summarize is then used with make_list on the name of the virtual machine extension to combine the name of each extension where id, OSName, OSType, and VMSize are the same into a single array property. Lastly, we order by lowercase OSName with asc. By default, order by is descending.

Resources
| where type == 'microsoft.compute/virtualmachines'
| extend
  JoinID = toupper(id),
  OSName = tostring(properties.osProfile.computerName),
  OSType = tostring(properties.storageProfile.osDisk.osType),
  VMSize = tostring(properties.hardwareProfile.vmSize)
| join kind=leftouter(
  Resources

Virtual machines matched by regex

This query looks for virtual machines that match a regular expression (known as regex). The matches regex @ allows us to define the regex to match, which is ^Contoso(.*)[0-9]+$. That regex definition is explained as:

  • ^ - Match must start at the beginning of the string.
  • Contoso - The case-sensitive string.
  • (.*) - A subexpression match:
    • . - Matches any single character (except a new line).
    • * - Matches previous element zero or more times.
  • [0-9] - Character group match for numbers 0 through 9.
  • + - Matches previous element one or more times.
  • $ - Match of the previous element must occur at the end of the string.

After matching by name, the query projects the name and orders by name ascending.
