Prerequisites

• Microsoft Azure Subscription

Setup Sequence

• Create virtual machine for Jenkins Master
• Assign DNS name for Jenkins Master virtual machine

Create virtual machine for Jenkins Master

Open browser and navigate to https://portal.azure.com/

From Azure Portal, click New, then Compute, then Marketplace

Type Docker Jenkins in the search box and press Enter, then click on ‘Jenkins‘ from publisher ‘Docker‘ in the search results

Read virtual machine image description and click on Create

Provide basic configuration details for the virtual machine (you can change details as per your environment) and click OK

• Name: mme-j-master
• User name: cicdagent
• Authentication Type: Password
• Password: Azure101!
• Resource Group: DTR
  • Select existing Resource Group, you created for DTR virtual machine
• Location: South Central US

For size configuration, choose D1 Standard and click Select

Choose the default Settings for ‘Configure optional features‘ and click OK

Review the summary details and click OK

Initial virtual machine will show status as ‘Deploying‘, wait until it turns to ‘Running‘. I have seen it taking more than couple of minutes to deploy and configuring everything before getting into running state.

Assign DNS name for Jenkins Master virtual machine

Follow the similar steps in previous post to create a DNS name label for the virtual machine. In my environment FQDN of the virtual machine is mme-j-master.southcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com

Once virtual machine is in running state and DNS name label is assigned, browse to
http://mme-j-master.southcentralus.cloudapp.azure.com:8080
