Ohai Azure Chefs. We’ve released knife-azure 1.1.4 – you can gem install it
today. This release includes fixes for virtual resource leaks, reliability
of VM readiness for Windows bootstrapping, and adds support for virtual
networks and availability sets.
A huge thank you to our bug reporters and contributors. In addition, I’d
like to thank Brian Whipple, who made multiple contributions for this
release in the areas of resource cleanup, VM readiness detection, and
virtual network support and moved the gem forward to a new API version.
