[<CommonParameters>] Description
The New-AzureRmKeyVault cmdlet creates a key vault in the specified resource group. This cmdlet also grants permissions to the currently logged on user to add, remove, or list keys and secrets in the key vault. Note: If you see the error The subscription is not registered to use namespace 'Microsoft.KeyVault' when you try to create your new key vault, run Register-AzureRmResourceProvider -ProviderNamespace "Microsoft.KeyVault" and then rerun your New-AzureRmKeyVault command. For more information, see Register-AzureRmResourceProvider.
