Azure virtual machine scale set agents, hereafter referred to as scale set agents, are a form of self-hosted agents that can be autoscaled to meet your demands. This elasticity reduces your need to run dedicated agents all the time. Unlike Microsoft-hosted agents, you have flexibility over the size and the image of machines on which agents run.
Create the scale set :
In preparation for creating scale set agents, we must first create a virtual machine scale set in the Azure portal.
We create the virtual machine scale set in a certain way so that Azure Pipelines can manage it, we must disable Azure’s autoscaling so that Azure Pipelines can determine how to perform scaling based on number of incoming pipeline jobs. …
This article provides instructions for running your Azure Pipelines agent in Docker. You can set up a self-hosted agent in Azure Pipelines to run inside a Windows Server Core (for Windows hosts), or Ubuntu container (for Linux hosts) with Docker. This is useful when you want to run agents with outer orchestration, such as Azure Container Instances. In this article, you’ll walk through a complete container example, including handling agent self-update.
