Uploading VHD’s to an Azure Storage Account is
straight forward, the following command;
Add-AzureVHD
-Destination https://storageaccountcontainer
-LocationFilePath “C:\Win7.vhd”
You must create your Storage Account and relevant
containers prior to running the command. I tried to upload a VHD, which failed
to complete successfully this was due to a network connectivity issue on the
client uploading the VHD file.
I tried to run the command again and received the
following error “An upload is already in progress on machine HOSTNAME with
process ID” even though I knew it had failed.
The fix here was to manually delete the partially
uploaded VHD file. This can be done using the Web-GUI if you enter the
Container that the original VHD select it and Delete the disk.
Run the Azure command again and the VHD should
begin uploading again.
