ARM key points

For a better understanding of the ARM model, you might need to consider the following key points:

  • Resources with the same lifecycle should be gathered in the same resource group
  • Resources in different regions can be in the same resource group
  • Every resource must be assigned to a resource group, so whenever you want to move a resource between resource groups you must remove it from its current resource group and then add it to the new resource group
  • Resource groups support RBAC, wherein a user can have access to some specific resources, and have no access to the others
  • Some resources can be shared across resource groups such as storage accounts
  • ARM virtual machines can only be placed in ARM storage accounts
  • You cannot create a virtual machine using the ARM model and assign it to a virtual network built using the ASM model
  • You cannot use a prebuilt image that was created by ASM APIs to build a VM using the ARM model, but as a workaround you can copy the VHD files from the storage account in the classic portal to a storage account created in the ARM model
  • You can migrate assets from the ASM model to the ARM model
  • Every resource must be assigned to a resource group, so whenever you want to move a resource between resource groups you must remove it from its current resource group, and then add it to the new resource group

You can change the background of the portal by double-clicking on any unused area of the dashboard. You can navigate between four colors (blue, dark blue, white, and black). For further information about the difference between the ARM and ASM models, check out the following article: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/meamcs/2016/12/22/difference-between-azure-service-manager-and-azure-resource-manager/.
