### Getting Azure Archiver Appliance Size

This example shows how to get the Azure archiver appliance size.

```
$azureacc = Get-VBOAzureServiceAccount -Id f8e5ac3d-d883-4dd8-8de3-a8f315fb6ae2
$subscription = Get-VBOAzureSubscription -ServiceAccount $azureacc -Id "06b7354e-518f-4a10-b4c1-98f49d743012"
$location = Get-VBOAzureLocation -Subscription $subscription -Name westeurope
Get-VBOAzureVirtualMachineSize -Subscription $subscription -Location $location -Name Standard_F8s_v2
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBOAzureServiceAccount`](get-vboazureserviceaccount.md) cmdlet. Specify the `Id` parameter value. Save the result to the `$azureacc` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBOAzureSubscription`](get-vboazuresubscription.md) cmdlet. Set the `$azureacc` variable as the `ServiceAccount` parameter value. Specify the `Id` parameter value. Save the result to the `$subscription` variable.
3. Run the [`Get-VBOAzureLocation`](get-vboazurelocation.md) cmdlet. Specify the `$subscription` variable as the `Subscription` parameter value. Specify the `Name` parameter value. Save the result to the `$location` variable.
4. Run the `Get-VBOAzureVirtualMachineSize` cmdlet. Specify the `$subscription` variable as the `Subscription` parameter value and the `$location` as the `Location` parameter value. Specify the `Name` parameter value.
