=== 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.

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

Images

Debian images are available in all Public Azure regions, as well as Azure China, Azure Germany and Azure USGov clouds.

There are several different images available:

  • Debian 7 ("Wheezy")
  • Debian 8 ("Jessie")
  • Debian 8 ("Jessie") with backports kernel
  • Debian 9 ("Stretch")

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: 7, 8, 8-backports or 9

  • Version: latest or a valid version

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

Access via Classic (ASM)

In Classic mode the images are referenced by the internal name directly. There is no automatic lookup of the latest version available.

This image names looks like this:

  • Public Azure:
    • 6a83c2d016534a7a917bcd21b6e1c0c9__Debian-7-amd64-<version>

    • 6a83c2d016534a7a917bcd21b6e1c0c9__Debian-8-amd64-<version>

    • 6a83c2d016534a7a917bcd21b6e1c0c9__Debian-9-amd64-<version>

  • Azure China:
  • Azure Germany:
  • Azure USGov:

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 Azure Linux agent. See also Azure's documentation for building Debian images.

Mirrors

There exists high available and distributed Debian mirrors inside Azure. They provide anything for architectures amd64, i386 and source from main and security archive and a temporary local repository.

deb http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian jessie main
deb http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian-azure jessie main
deb http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian-security jessie/updates main
deb-src http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian jessie main
deb-src http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian-azure jessie main
deb-src http://debian-archive.trafficmanager.net/debian-security jessie/updates main

The temporary debian-azure repository is signed using the following key. This key can be found also in the debian-azure-archive-keyring package.

debian-azure archive for Stretch

For Debian Stretch, debian-azure archive on debian-archive.trafficmanager.net is not needed any more, all needed packages are now in Debian's main archive.
