az ml environment

Note

This reference is part of the ml extension for the Azure CLI (version 2.15.0 or higher). The extension will automatically install the first time you run an az ml environment command. Learn more about extensions.

Manage Azure ML environments.

Azure ML environments define the execution environment for jobs and endpoint deployments, encapsulating the dependencies for training and inference. These environment definitions are built into Docker images.

az ml environment archive

Archive an environment.

Archiving an environment will hide it by default from list queries (az ml environment list). You can still continue to reference and use an archived environment in your workflows. You can archive either an environment container or a specific environment version. Archiving an environment container will archive all versions of the environment under that given name. You can restore an archived environment using az ml environment restore. If the entire environment container is archived, you cannot restore individual versions of the environment - you will need to restore the environment container.

az ml environment archive --name
                          [--label]
                          [--registry-name]
                          [--resource-group]
                          [--version]
                          [--workspace-name]

Examples

Archive an environment container (archives all versions of that environment)

az ml environment archive --name my-env --resource-group my-resource-group --workspace-name my-workspace

Archive a specific environment version

az ml environment archive --name my-env --version 1 --resource-group my-resource-group --workspace-name my-workspace

Required Parameters

--name -n

Name of resource group. You can configure the default group using az configure --defaults group=<name>.

--version -v

Version of the environment.

--workspace-name -w

Name of the Azure ML workspace. You can configure the default workspace using az configure --defaults workspace=<name>.

az ml environment create

Create an environment.

Environments can be defined from a Docker image, Dockerfile, or Conda file. Azure ML maintains a set of CPU and GPU Docker images that you can use as base images. For information on these images, see https://github.com/Azure/AzureML-Containers.

The created environment will be tracked in the workspace under the specified name and version.
