Changes in version 2.2.2 (2020-10-14)                  

  - Change maintainer email address.

                 Changes in version 2.2.1 (2020-08-02)                  

  - Hotfix to previous version, to export windows_2019_gen2 and
    windows_2019_gen2_ss configuration functions.

                 Changes in version 2.2.0 (2020-07-28)                  

  - Add ability to retrieve an SSH public key from an Azure resource
    object. See ?user_config for more information.
  - New predefined configurations for VMs and VM scalesets:
    Ubuntu 20.04; Debian 10 (w/backports); Centos 8.1; RHEL 8.1 and 8.2;
    Windows Server 2019. All new configurations except Centos are
    available as both generation 1 and generation 2 VMs. See ?vm_config
    and ?vmss_config for more information.
      - The default configuration for create_vm and create_vm_scaleset
        now uses Ubuntu 20.04.
  - Update the DSVM configuration functions ubuntu_dsvm and windows_dsvm
    to use the latest images. The Ubuntu DSVM no longer has a built-in
    data disk, so the dsvm_disk_type argument has been removed.
      - New ubuntu_dsvm_gen2 configuration to create a gen2 Ubuntu DSVM.
  - Fix a bug that prevented Windows scalesets from being created.
  - Logic to detect a running VM now correctly handles VMs that are
    updating.
  - Assorted other minor fixes.

                 Changes in version 2.1.1 (2020-02-06)                  

  - Require R6 2.4.1, which is needed to allow cloning of active
    bindings in R 4.0.
  - The low_priority argument to scaleset_options is now simply
    priority, with a default of "regular" and an alternative of "spot".
    Spot VMs are the replacement for low-priority VMs; seee this page
    for more details. Note that you can use the same argument to create
    a single (non-scaleset) spot VM, with create_vm(*,
    properties=list(priority="spot")).

                 Changes in version 2.1.0 (2019-11-03)                  

  - VM scalesets can now be created with data disks.
  - Make OS disk type and Linux DSVM data disk type selectable, with a
    default of "Premium_LRS" for both.
  - Background process pool functionality moved into AzureRMR; this
    removes code duplication and makes it available for other packages
    that can benefit.
  - managed argument to create_vm/vmss, vm/vmss_config and related
    methods changed to managed_identity, to make its meaning clearer.
    Due to partial matching of function arguments, this should not
    affect any user code.

                 Changes in version 2.0.1 (2019-08-27)                  

  - Add methods to retrieve Azure resources used by a VM: get_disk,
    get_vnet, get_nic, get_nsg, get_public_ip_resource. These return
    objects of class AzureRMR::az_resource, or NULL if not present.
  - Add similar methods to retrieve Azure resources used by a scaleset:
    get_vnet, get_nsg, get_public_ip_resource, get_load_balancer,
    get_autoscaler.
  - Add redeploy and reimage methods for VMs, to match those for VM
    scalesets.
  - Fix error in documentation for VMSS public IP address methods: these
    return NA, not NULL if the public address is unavailable.

                 Changes in version 2.0.0 (2019-06-19)                  

  - Complete rewrite of package, to be less DSVM-centric and more
    flexible:
      - Separate out deployment of VMs and VM clusters; the latter are
        implemented as scalesets, rather than simplistic arrays of
        individual VMs. The methods to work with scalesets are named
        get_vm_scaleset, create_vm_scaleset and delete_vm_scaleset;
        get/create/delete_vm_cluster are now defunct.
      - New UI for VM/scaleset creation, with many more ways to
        fine-tune the deployment options, including specifying the base
        VM image; networking details like security rules, load balancers
        and autoscaling; datadisks to attach; use of low-priority VMs
        for scalesets; etc.
      - Several predefined configurations supplied to allow quick
        deployment of commonly used images (Ubuntu, Windows Server,
        RHEL, Debian, Centos, DSVM).
      - Allow referring to existing resources in a deployment (eg
        placing VMs into an existing vnet), by supplying
        AzureRMR::az_resource objects as arguments.
      - Clear distinction between a VM deployment template and a
        resource. get_vm and get_vm_scaleset will always attempt to
        retrieve the template; to get the resource, use get_vm_resource
        and get_vm_scaleset_resource.
      - New VM resource methods: get_public_ip_address,
        get_private_ip_address.
      - New cluster/scaleset resource methods: get_public_ip_address
        (technically the address for the load balancer, if present),
        get_vm_public_ip_addresses, get_vm_private_ip_addresses,
        list_instances, get_instance.
      - Use a pool of background processes to talk to scalesets in
        parallel when carrying out instance operations. The pool size
        can be controlled with the global options azure_vm_minpoolsize
        and azure_vm_maxpoolsize.
      - See the README and/or the vignette for more information.

                        Changes in version 1.0.1                        

  - Allow resource group and subscription accessor methods to work
    without AzureVM on the search path.

                 Changes in version 1.0.0 (2018-12-25)                  

  - Submitted to CRAN

                        Changes in version 0.9.0                        

  - Moved to cloudyr organisation
