Parameters

-ProvisioningSchemeData

JSON encoded string of a provisioning scheme, image history, and VMs created with the provisioning scheme.

Type:	String
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	False

Accept wildcard characters:	True

-Scope

The administration scopes to be applied to the new provisioning scheme.
