Create Cloud Provider on CMP

To create a Microsoft Azure Cloud Provider on the CMP portal:

1. Login to your CMP account.
2. Navigate to Service Orchestrations > Providers > New > Microsoft Azure.
   
3. Click the Cloud Account on which you want to create the Microsoft Azure Provider. This will open the Resource Manager dialog for Microsoft Azure.
4. Click Load Regions.
   
   
5. Select the remote cloud provider region from the Region dropdown.
6. Enter a name for your Microsoft Azure Cloud Provider.
7. Click Save Changes.
   Saving your changes, triggers the resource discovery in the Account and Region you specified in the Resource Manager dialog above. This process includes the discovery of the networking details for your Microsoft Azure subscription.  

Once you've configured your Microsoft Azure Cloud Provider, you can:

• Configure Microsoft Azure availability zones.
• Set up the lease period for your Cloud Provider.
• Allow wizard-based VM provisioning of your Cloud Provider.
