Turn on and off your AKS (Azure Kubernetes)!

Turning off your AKS will reduce cost, since all your nodes will be shut down.

Turning it off:

Stop-AzAksCluster -Name myAKSCluster -ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup

And then turning it back on:

Start-AzAksCluster -Name myAKSCluster -ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup

If your an Azure N00b like me, and you get “Resource Group not found”, change into the correct subscription using either name or id, with:

Select-AzSubscription -SubscriptionName 'Subscription Name'

or

Select-AzSubscription -SubscriptionId 'XXXX-XXXXX-XXXXXXX-XXXX'

Thats it for today!
