Question

Is it possible to add a "custom" size memory to an Azure virtual machine?

For example, I'm using the Medium size - 2 core, 4GB RAM, I would like to have 8GB RAM with the current settings I have... otherwise the next option available is A5 2 core with 14GB.

Was it helpful?

Looks like Microsoft recently added a Large (A3) machine with 7GB http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/virtual-machines/

OTHER TIPS

At https://portal.azure.com/ you can select the machine, then go to Size and pick another size for your virtual machine. It currently looks a bit like this:

If you scroll down see you a lot of different configurations, but you can't customize parameters of any of the given configurations.

Simple answer is you can't. You will need to pick up from one of the existing VM sizes.
