= Images =

Debian images are available in all [[https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/regions/|Public Azure regions]], as well as Azure China, Azure Germany and Azure USGov clouds.

There are several different images available:

 * [[https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/credativ.debian?tab=PlansAndPrice|Debian 8 ("Jessie")]]
 * [[https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/credativ.debian?tab=PlansAndPrice|Debian 8 ("Jessie") with backports kernel]]
 * [[https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/credativ.debian?tab=PlansAndPrice|Debian 9 ("Stretch")]]
 * [[https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/credativ.debian?tab=PlansAndPrice|Debian 9 ("Stretch") with backports kernel]]
 * [[https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/debian.debian-10?tab=PlansAndPrice|Debian 10 ("Buster")]]


== Access via the Azure portal ==

Debian can be found in the Marketplace via the new resource mechanism of the Azure portal.

== Access via Azure Resource Manager (ARM) ==

The Debian images can be found using the following parts of the image URN:

 . Publisher: `credativ`
 . Offer: `Debian`
 . SKU: `8`, `8-backports`, `9`, `9-backports`
 . Version: `latest` or a valid version

With Debian 10 ("Buster") Debian images have been moved to the publisher "Debian":

 . Publisher: `Debian`
 . Offer: `debian-10`
 . SKU: `10`
 . Version: `latest` or a valid version


An example for the final resource name is `credativ:Debian:9:latest`.


== Access via Azure stack ==

Debian is available for syndication from the public Azure Marketplace and can be imported this way directly into the local Azure Stack installation.

== Image build automation ==

Debian VMs in Azure require the device drivers for Hyper-V (hv_*.ko), which are already available with Debian's Jessie kernel. In addition, Azure images require a provisioning daemon to be preinstalled on the image, called the [[https://packages.debian.org/sid/waagent|Azure Linux agent]]. See also [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/linux/debian-create-upload-vhd|Azure's documentation]] for building Debian images.

 * Prebuilt Debian Azure images: https://cloud.debian.org/images/cloud/
 * Scripts to build Debian's Azure images: [[https://github.com/credativ/azure-manage|https://github.com/credativ/azure-manage]].

== Expired Debian for Azure Archive Automatic Signing Key (Jessie) ==
On Debian Jessie images, that were created before February 2nd 2017, we included an extra repository called "debian-azure" (URL: http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian-azure) to ship an updated version of waagent. The archive signing key for that repository expired.

This repository is not needed any more and can savely be removed from the sources.list. The updated waagent package is nowadays shipped with the debian-backports repository.

Azure is the public cloud infrastructure provided by Microsoft and some partners worldwide. Debian images and support infrastructure inside Azure is maintained by Debian developers at credativ.

Support

Support for Azure should be requested via the Azure Support Portal. How to create an Azure support request?

If there are general questions about the image itself, those can be asked via mailto:debian-cloud@lists.debian.org
