    My question is simple, and the solution was also simple in the Azure Classic model. However, in the Azure ARM (Azure Resource Manager) model it is far from that...

    I create an Azure VM using ARM. Later, I create an Availability Set using ARM. How can I add the VM to the availability set? There used to be a specific Powershell CMDlet for this in Azure Classic, but now there is not.

    I noticed a property in the VM configuration called "AvailabilitySetReference", however I have not managed to populate it with the ID of the availability set. 

    Can someone help me with this?

    I see you have never gotten an answer for this.  I too am trying to do this and it turns out there is currently no way to do this.  https://github.com/Azure/azure-xplat-cli/issues/1937 is an issue in GitHub that details this issue.  Right now, the only way to do this is to create a new VM an assign the availability set at that time.

    Hi

    You can delete the VM (keep the VM disk) and then recreate it by using the VM disk.

    Hi,

    1.Create the restource group.Storage,network,etc. 

    2.You should shutdown the VM in classic portal and copy the VM VHd file to ARM blob storage;

    3.Use the powershell to create the VM in ARM:

    New-AzureRmResourceGroupDeployment -Name "vmname" -ResourceGroupName  "Resource Group Name" -TemplateUri https://xxxxxxxxx

    It's not a Classic VM though.  This won't work.

    Thanks for the script. In fact this is how I had solved it...but I had done it manually instead at the time.
