deprecated(azure): replace VM type #151

Closed wadhah101 closed 1 year ago

wadhah101 commented 1 year ago

Standard_A0 Is gonna get deprecated on august 2024. Standard_B1ms is the same price (15$), has a burst capability ( good for ansible testing workload ), has 2GB of ram

the Standard_B1s has 1GB RAM and half the price but from my experience 1GB is bothersome when installing large packages with yum, maintainer input is appreciated

Centos 8_5-gen2 looks stable, couldn't find any known bugs or problems with a google search, newer base package make life easier.

fwiw, I'm not sure there's actually a maintainer of the azure plugin. There are reviewers of commits but I'm not sure they're actually using the plugin (this includes me). So, if the new VM type is for the same or better specs and same price as the deprecated one, I guess it's fine. I expect users of the plugins to replace the vm type in the configuration anyway.

@apatard I use the plugin myself in my job for testing our ansible roles, I have been using this config for a quite a while and it looks OK
