Check For Desired VM SKU Size
More Info:
Determine if the virtual machine (VM) instances provisioned within your Azure cloud account have the desired SKU size(s) established by your organization based on the workload deployed. The desired SKU size(s) must be defined in the conformity rule settings, on the Trend Micro Cloud One™ – Conformity account consoleRisk Level

Using Console
Sure, here are the step-by-step instructions to remediate the misconfiguration “Check for desired VM SKU size” in Azure using the Azure console:
- Log in to the Azure portal (https://portal.azure.com/).
- Navigate to the virtual machine that needs to be checked for the desired VM SKU size.
- Click on the virtual machine to open its details page.
- From the left-hand side menu, select “Size”.
- Check if the VM SKU size is set to the desired size. If not, select the desired size from the list of available sizes.
- Click on “Resize” to apply the changes.
Using CLI
Using CLI
Sure, here are the step-by-step instructions to remediate the “Check for desired VM SKU size” misconfiguration in Azure using Azure CLI:
- Firstly, you need to identify the desired VM SKU size. You can do this by checking the requirements of your application or workload that will be running on the VM.
-
Once you have identified the desired VM SKU size, you need to check the current VM SKU size of the virtual machine. You can do this by running the following command in Azure CLI:
az vm show --resource-group <resource-group-name> --name <vm-name> --query hardwareProfile.vmSizeReplace<resource-group-name>with the name of the resource group where the virtual machine is located, and<vm-name>with the name of the virtual machine. - Compare the current VM SKU size with the desired VM SKU size. If they are different, proceed to the next step.
-
To change the VM SKU size, run the following command in Azure CLI:
az vm resize --resource-group <resource-group-name> --name <vm-name> --size <desired-vm-size>Replace<resource-group-name>with the name of the resource group where the virtual machine is located,<vm-name>with the name of the virtual machine, and<desired-vm-size>with the desired VM SKU size. -
Wait for the VM resize operation to complete. You can check the status of the operation by running the following command:
az vm show --resource-group <resource-group-name> --name <vm-name> --query provisioningStateThe command will return “Succeeded” once the operation is completed. -
Finally, verify that the VM SKU size has been changed to the desired size by running the following command:
az vm show --resource-group <resource-group-name> --name <vm-name> --query hardwareProfile.vmSizeThe command should return the desired VM SKU size.
Using Python
Using Python
To check for desired VM SKU size misconfiguration in Azure using Python, you can use Azure SDK for Python. The following steps can be followed to remediate this issue:
- Install the Azure SDK for Python using pip:
- Import the necessary libraries:
- Authenticate to Azure using the DefaultAzureCredential:
- Get the list of virtual machines in the specified resource group:
- For each virtual machine in the list, check if the SKU size matches the desired size:
- The above code will update the SKU size of the virtual machine to the desired size if it doesn’t match. You can run this code periodically to ensure that all virtual machines have the desired SKU size.
