 ### Prerequisites
 
 * **Azure Linux Agent version 2.2.0 or later**. Most Azure VM Linux gallery images include version 2.2.7 or later. Run `/usr/sbin/waagent -version` to confirm the version installed on the VM. If the VM is running an older version of the guest agent, follow [these instructions](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-machines/linux/update-agent) to update it.
 * **Azure CLI**. [Set up the Azure CLI](https://docs.microsoft.com/cli/azure/install-azure-cli) environment on your machine.
 * The wget command, if you don't already have it: Run `sudo apt-get install wget`.
 * An existing Azure subscription and an existing storage account within it to store the data.
