How to tell if my VM is Gen1 or Gen2 in Azure?

Question

Can anyone help me how can I able to figure it out that my VMs are in which generation? via Azure CLI?

Answer 1

So basically, VM under gen 1 means it is V1 whereas VM under gen 2 means it is for V2, you can try the below command to view the generation of your instances.

az vm get-instance-view -g <rg-name> -n <vm-name>

I hope this will work.
