This quickstart describes using PowerShell from the command line to create an Azure Analysis Services server in an Azure resource group in your Azure subscription.
This task requires Azure PowerShell module version 4.0 or later. To find the version, run Get-Module -ListAvailable AzureRM
. To install or upgrade, see Install Azure PowerShell module.
Note
Creating a server might result in a new billable service. To learn more, see Analysis Services pricing.
To complete this quickstart, you need:
- Azure subscription: Visit Azure Free Trial to create an account.
- Azure Active Directory: Your subscription must be associated with an Azure Active Directory tenant and you must have an account in that directory. To learn more, see Authentication and user permissions.
To create a server in your subscription, you use the AzureRM.AnalysisServices component module. Load the AzureRm.AnalysisServices module into your PowerShell session.
Import-Module AzureRM.AnalysisServices
Sign in to your Azure subscription by using the Add-AzureRmAccount command. Follow the on-screen directions.
Add-AzureRmAccount
An Azure resource group is a logical container where Azure resources are deployed and managed as a group. When you create your server, you must specify a resource group in your subscription. If you do not already have a resource group, you can create a new one by using the New-AzureRmResourceGroup command. The following example creates a resource group named myResourceGroup
in the West US region.
New-AzureRmResourceGroup -Name "myResourceGroup" -Location "West US"
Create a new server by using the New-AzureRmAnalysisServicesServer command. The following example creates a server named myServer in myResourceGroup, in the West US region, at the D1 tier, and specifies [email protected] as a server administrator.
New-AzureRmAnalysisServicesServer -ResourceGroupName "myResourceGroup" -Name "myServer" -Location West US -Sku D1 -Administrator "[email protected]"
You can remove the server from your subscription by using the Remove-AzureRmAnalysisServicesServer command. If you continue with other quickstarts and tutorials in this collection, do not remove your server. The following example removes the server created in the previous step.
Remove-AzureRmAnalysisServicesServer -Name "myServer" -ResourceGroupName "myResourceGroup"
