This command only supports Ubuntu 14.04+ and CoreOS based images. Docker is configured on the VM using HTTPS as described here: https://docs.docker.com/articles/https/ By default, generated TLS certificates are placed in the ~/.docker directory, and Docker is configured to run on port 2376. These can be configured using new options:
-dp, --docker-port [port] Port to use for docker [2376]
-dc, --docker-cert-dir [dir] Directory containing docker certs [~/.docker/]
After the VM is created. It can be used as a Docker host with the -H option or DOCKER_HOST environment variable.
docker --tls -H tcp://<my-host>.cloudapp.net:2376 info
Note: To run docker commands on windows make sure ssl agent is installed.
azure site create --location "West US" mytestsite -vv
Say, use 'Fiddler', setup the following environment variables before execute commands.
set NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0
