Detect & correct Virtual Machine Scale Sets if unused

Overview

Virtual Machine Scale Sets with no instances attached still cost money and should be deleted.

This pipeline detects unused Virtual Machine Scale Sets and then either sends a notification or attempts to perform a predefined corrective action.

This control will work out-of-the-box with some sensible defaults (configurable via variables).

You should be able to simply run the following command in your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run detect_and_correct_virtual_machine_scale_sets_if_unused

By default, Flowpipe runs in wizard mode and prompts directly in the terminal for a decision on the action(s) to take for each detected resource.

However, you can run Flowpipe in server mode with external integrations, allowing it to prompt for input via http, slack, teams, etc.

Alternatively, you can choose to configure and run in other modes:

To run this pipeline from your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run azure_thrifty.pipeline.detect_and_correct_virtual_machine_scale_sets_if_unused

To call this pipeline from your pipeline, use a step:

step "pipeline" "step_name" {
  pipeline = azure_thrifty.pipeline.detect_and_correct_virtual_machine_scale_sets_if_unused  
}
