    It works the same way whether you use Bash (Az CLI) or Powershell. I don't use Az CLI a lot, so I don't know the commands and parameters.

     

    The OUPath parameter is doing exactly that.

Expect you are talking about AD DS join:

 

  1. Open the Azure CLI command prompt.
  2. Connect to your Azure account by running the following command:

az login

3. Run the following command to enable PowerShell remoting on the VM:

az vm run-command invoke -g <resource-group-name> -n <vm-name> --command-id enable-psremoting --scripts "yes" --parameters "skipNetworkProfile=false" --output json

  1. Run the following command to join the VM to the AD DS managed domain:

az vm extension set --resource-group <resource-group-name> --vm-name <vm-name> --name DomainJoin --publisher Microsoft.Compute --version 1.0 --settings '{"name": "<domain-name>","user": "<domain-username>","restart": "true", "options": 3}'

Kidd, I should run this after the VM is created or while its creation?
