Azure.ResourceManager.Hci 1.2.0

Microsoft Azure Stack HCI management client library for .NET

Microsoft Azure VMware Solution is a VMware validated solution with ongoing validation and testing of enhancements and upgrades. Microsoft manages and maintains the private cloud infrastructure and software. It allows you to focus on developing and running workloads in your private clouds to deliver business value.

This library supports managing Microsoft Azure Stack HCI resources.

This library follows the new Azure SDK guidelines, and provides many core capabilities:

- Support MSAL.NET, Azure.Identity is out of box for supporting MSAL.NET.
- Support [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) for distributed tracing.
- HTTP pipeline with custom policies.
- Better error-handling.
- Support uniform telemetry across all languages.

string extensionName = "AzureSiteRecovery";
ArcExtensionData data = new ArcExtensionData()
{
    Publisher = publisherName,
    ArcExtensionType = arcExtensionType,
    EnableAutomaticUpgrade = true,
    Settings = BinaryData.FromObjectAsJson(new Dictionary<string, object>()
    {
        { "SubscriptionId", "your SubscriptionId" },
        { "Environment", "AzureCloud" },
        { "ResourceGroup", "your ResourceGroup" },
        { "ResourceName", "your site recovery vault name" },

await arcExtension.DeleteAsync(WaitUntil.Completed);

HCI Cluster Management

View HCI Clusters

Get Single HCI Cluster using Cluster Name

// Get the HCI Cluster
string clusterName = "HCICluster"; // Replace with your cluster name,
ResourceIdentifier hciClusterResourceId = HciClusterResource.CreateResourceIdentifier(subscriptionId, resourceGroupName, clusterName);
HciClusterResource hciCluster = client.GetHciClusterResource(hciClusterResourceId);

// Invoke get operation
HciClusterResource result = await hciCluster.GetAsync();

Delete Single HCI cluster

// Get the HCI Cluster
ResourceIdentifier hciClusterResourceId = HciClusterResource.CreateResourceIdentifier(subscriptionId, resourceGroupName, clusterName);
HciClusterResource hciCluster = client.GetHciClusterResource(hciClusterResourceId);

// Invoke delete operation
await hciCluster.DeleteAsync(WaitUntil.Completed);

Delete all HCI Clusters in a Resource Group

ResourceIdentifier resourceGroupResourceId = ResourceGroupResource.CreateResourceIdentifier(subscriptionId, resourceGroupName);
ResourceGroupResource resourceGroupResource = client.GetResourceGroupResource(resourceGroupResourceId);

// Get the collection of this HciClusterResource
HciClusterCollection collection = resourceGroupResource.GetHciClusters();

// Calling the delete function for all Cluster Resources in the collection
await foreach (HciClusterResource item in collection.GetAllAsync())
{
    // delete the item

    await item.DeleteAsync(WaitUntil.Completed);
}

Update HCI Cluster Properties

// Get the HCI Cluster
ResourceIdentifier hciClusterResourceId = HciClusterResource.CreateResourceIdentifier(subscriptionId, resourceGroupName, clusterName);
HciClusterResource hciCluster = client.GetHciClusterResource(hciClusterResourceId);
HciClusterPatch patch = new HciClusterPatch()
{
    Tags =
    {
        { "key", "value" }
    },
    DesiredProperties = new HciClusterDesiredProperties()
    {
        WindowsServerSubscription = WindowsServerSubscription.Enabled,  // It can Enabled or Disabled
        DiagnosticLevel = HciClusterDiagnosticLevel.Basic,              // It can be Off, Basic or Enhanced
    },
};
HciClusterResource result = await hciCluster.UpdateAsync(patch);

Enable Azure Hybrid Benefits

1. Invoke the Operation to Extend Azure Hybrid Benefit

ResourceIdentifier hciClusterResourceId = HciClusterResource.CreateResourceIdentifier(subscriptionId, resourceGroupName, clusterName);
HciClusterResource hciCluster = client.GetHciClusterResource(hciClusterResourceId);
SoftwareAssuranceChangeContent content = new SoftwareAssuranceChangeContent()
{
    SoftwareAssuranceIntent = SoftwareAssuranceIntent.Enable,
};
HciClusterResource result = (hciCluster.ExtendSoftwareAssuranceBenefitAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, content).Result).Value;
