Azure power off and deallocate

Azure has two power off states - powered off and deallocated.

  • To power off a VM in Azure, use the graceful shutdown.
  • To deallocate a VM in Azure, use the power off without graceful shutdown.
    • The deallocated VM has a "deallocated" attribute that is set to "true"
