Azure Marketplace Terraform Solution Template
This template provisions a Linux Virtual Machine(VM) to Azure pre-configured with the latest Terraform version and the Azure CLI v2.0.
Template Deployment Steps:
- Creates a VM with system assigned identity based on the
Ubuntu 16.04 LTSimage - Installs the MSI extension on the VM to allow OAuth tokens to be issued for
Azureresources - Assign RBAC permissions to the Managed Identity, granting owner rights for the resource group
- Creates a
Terraformtemplate folder (tfTemplate) - Pre-configures
Terraformremote state with theAzurebackend
Once all required resources have been provisioned to Azure the template will then execute a shell script on the VM via the custom script extension. The shell script will install the latest Terraform version, Azure CLI v2.0, Unzip, JQ and create the remote storage container via the installed Azure CLI. Finally, it will then create a Terraform template folder that is pre-configured for use with Terraform Remote State and the Azure backend.
Post Deployment Configuration Steps
Steps to Enable Remote State
Copy ~/tfTemplate/remoteState.tf from home directory to the root of the Terraform scripts to enable remote state management.
Steps to Enable MSI
Once the template has finished deployment, log into the VM via SSH and run the following command to enable MSI with Terraform. You only need to perform this step once, the first time you connect to the VM, once the script has been ran the changes are persisted to Azure.
