We are currently working on migrating existing blog posts (excluding outage updates) to our [DevTest Labs documentation](devtest-lab-overview.md). When the MSDN blog is deprecated, it will be redirected to the documentation overview for DevTest Labs. Once redirected, you can search for the topic you are looking for in the 'Filter by' title (screenshot attached). Note we haven't migrated all posts yet, but should be done by end of this month.

Worry-free self-service means that developers and testers create their own environments as needed. Administrators have the security of knowing that DevTest Labs can help minimize waste and control costs. Administrators can specify which VM sizes are allowed, the maximum number of VMs, and when VMs are started and shut down. DevTest Labs also makes it easy to monitor costs and set alerts, to help you stay aware of how lab resources are being used.

## Why can't I see VMs on the Virtual Machines blade that I see in DevTest Labs?

When you create a VM in DevTest Labs, you are given permission to access that VM. You can view the VM both on the labs blade and on the **Virtual Machines** blade. Users assigned to the DevTest Labs lab user role can see all VMs that were created in the lab on the lab's **All Virtual Machines** blade. However, users who have the DevTest Labs lab user role are not automatically granted read access to VM resources that other users have created. Therefore, those VMs are not displayed on the **Virtual Machines** blade.

## What is the difference between a custom image and a formula?
128128
A custom image is a virtual hard disk (VHD). A formula is an image that you can configure with additional settings, and then save and reproduce. A custom image might be preferable if you want to quickly create several environments by using the same basic, immutable image. A formula might be better if you want to reproduce the configuration of your VM with the latest bits, as part of a virtual network or subnet, or as a VM of a specific size. For a more in-depth explanation, see [Comparing custom images and formulas in DevTest Labs](devtest-lab-comparing-vm-base-image-types.md).

## What are artifacts?

Artifacts are customizable elements that you can use to deploy your latest bits or deploy your dev tools to a VM. Attach artifacts to your VM when you create the VM. After the VM is provisioned, the artifacts deploy and configure your VM. Various preexisting artifacts are available in our [public GitHub repository](https://github.com/Azure/azure-devtestlab/tree/master/Artifacts). You can also [author your own artifacts](devtest-lab-artifact-author.md).

VMs are child resources under a lab in a resource group. When you use Resource Manager templates to deploy VMs by using PowerShell, the resource group name provided in the PowerShell script should be the resource group name of the lab.

Sometimes, the deployment error occurs before VM deployment begins. An example is when the subscription limit for a resource that was created with the VM is exceeded. In this case, the error details are captured in the lab-level activity logs. Activity logs are located at the bottom of the **Configuration and policies** settings. For more information about using activity logs in Azure, see [View activity logs to audit actions on resources](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/azure-resource-manager/resource-group-audit).
