What's new?

• Setting virtual machine schedules is now easier: the Azure > Compute > Virtual Machine > Schedule policy manages both fixed schedule windows and tag-based schedules from a single policy. Each schedule window is now available with Tag override, which enforces the window while letting individual virtual machines override it with a schedule of their own via their schedule tag, and the new Enforce: Per Schedule > Tag schedule option enforces only the schedule from the tag. The tag key is now configurable via the new Azure > Compute > Virtual Machine > Schedule > Tag policy (default turbot_custom_schedule).
• With scheduling consolidated into the Schedule policy, the separate Azure > Compute > Virtual Machine > Schedule Tag policy has been deprecated and now lives under Azure > Compute > Virtual Machine > Schedule in the policy hierarchy. Use the with Tag override or Enforce: Per Schedule > Tag schedule options instead - they provide the same functionality from a single policy. Existing Schedule Tag settings continue to be honored.
• The Schedule control now waits one hour after starting or stopping a virtual machine before acting again, so a manual action taken in the meantime is not immediately overridden.

Bug fixes

• Fixed the Azure > Compute > Virtual Machine > Schedule control remaining stuck in a TBD state with the reason Precheck policy not fully installed or has incorrect target when only the Schedule policy was set.
