1. Open the Azure portal.
2. Select the Cloud Shell icon next to the search box.
3. Select PowerShell, and then create the Azure file share.
4. Create a resource group by using Azure PowerShell:

Note: To find a location near you, refer to https://azure.microsoft.com/regions/services.

PS Azure:> az group create –name AZ500 –location westus

Azure outputs the following:

Azure:/

“id”: "/subscriptions/61f927e9-94e6-4f6d-a737-5d482c6f4316/resourceGroups/AZ500",

“location”: "westus", “managedBy”: null,"name": “AZ500”,"properties": {

“provisioningState”: "Succeeded" },“tags”: null, "type": null}

5.Create the Kubernetes cluster, which is a three-node cluster. The –no-wait returns to your command-line interface (CLI) window while the cluster is being built:

PS Azure:> az aks create –resource-group AZ500 -name alamo -node-count 3 –generate-ssh-keys –no-wait

Azure outputs the following:

Azure:/

SSH key files ‘/home/philip/.ssh/id_rsa’ and '/home/philip/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' have been generated under ~/.ssh to allow SSH access to the VM. If using machines without permanent storage like Azure Cloud Shell without an attached file share, back up your keys to a safe location

6.Review your resource groups in the Azure portal to find the Kubernetes service you created.
