# Azure Virtual Desktop Lab

Terraform-powered Azure Virtual Desktop lab for demos, training, and proof-of-concept work. It follows a landing-zone style layout while keeping the default deployment focused on AVD fundamentals instead of expensive perimeter services.

> [!NOTE]
> Azure costs only start when you run `terraform apply`. Keep the `lab` profile for demos and destroy the environment when you are finished.

## What You Get

| Capability | Default build | Why it matters |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Pooled host pool | 2 x Windows 11 Enterprise multi-session hosts | Real AVD pooled behavior without a large VM footprint. |
| Microsoft Entra join | No domain controllers | Modern sign-in path and lower lab complexity. |
| Desktop and RemoteApps | Desktop, Microsoft Edge, Notepad | Demonstrates both common app group patterns. |
| FSLogix profiles | Azure Files with Microsoft Entra Kerberos | Shows profile containers and roaming profile behavior. |
| Autoscale and start | Scaling plan plus Start VM on Connect | Shows AVD power management and cost controls. |
| Observability | Log Analytics, diagnostics, AVD Insights workbook | Gives the lab an operations story, not just a deployment. |
| Safety guardrails | No public IPs on hosts, Key Vault, optional policy/budget | Keeps the default lab practical and reviewable. |

No Azure Firewall, VPN Gateway, Application Gateway, AKS, Bastion, or domain controllers are deployed by default.

## Architecture At A Glance

The lab separates service, compute, storage, security, monitoring, and networking concerns:

```text
User -> AVD workspace -> Desktop or RemoteApp -> Host pool -> Session host
                                                          |
                                                          +-> FSLogix profile share
                                                          +-> AVD diagnostics
```

## Guided Path

| Phase | Command or page | Outcome |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1. Plan | [Full lab guide](docs/full-lab-guide.md) | Understand prerequisites, cost posture, and inputs. |
| 2. Configure | `terraform.tfvars` plus `environments/lab.tfvars` | Subscription, owner, region, and Entra group IDs are set. |
| 3. Deploy | `terraform apply -var-file="environments/lab.tfvars"` | AVD lab resources are created. |
| 4. Validate | `./scripts/Test-AvdLabConnectivity.ps1 -StartStoppedHosts` | Control plane, session hosts, FSLogix, and network checks pass. |
| 5. Break and recover | `./scripts/Invoke-AvdLabCrashTest.ps1 -RunChaos` | Restart, drain, deallocate/start, and recovery behavior is tested. |
| 6. Destroy | `terraform destroy -var-file="environments/lab.tfvars"` | Azure resources are removed when the lab is done. |

## Quick Start

PowerShell:

```powershell
Copy-Item terraform.tfvars.example terraform.tfvars
terraform init
terraform fmt -check -recursive
terraform validate
terraform plan -var-file="environments/lab.tfvars"
```

Bash:

```bash
cp terraform.tfvars.example terraform.tfvars
terraform init
terraform fmt -check -recursive
terraform validate
terraform plan -var-file="environments/lab.tfvars"
```

Set at least these values in `terraform.tfvars`:

```hcl
subscription_id    = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
owner              = "Your Name"
avd_users_group_id = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
```

Optional:

```hcl
avd_admins_group_id = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
alert_email         = "admin@example.com"
```

Leave `admin_password = ""` to generate a password and store it in Key Vault.

## Deploy

```powershell
terraform apply -var-file="environments/lab.tfvars"
```

After apply, capture the outputs:

```powershell
terraform output
```

Key outputs:

| Output | Use |
| --- | --- |
| `avd_webclient_url` | User access URL. |
| `host_pool_name` | Host pool lookup and troubleshooting. |
| `session_host_names` | VM validation and crash tests. |
| `fslogix_share_path` | Profile container location. |
| `avd_insights_workbook_id` | Monitoring workbook. |

## Validate

Run the full non-destructive health check:

```powershell
./scripts/Test-AvdLabConnectivity.ps1 -VarFile "environments/lab.tfvars" -StartStoppedHosts
```

Run a dry-run crash test:

```powershell
./scripts/Invoke-AvdLabCrashTest.ps1
```

Run live resilience tests:

```powershell
./scripts/Invoke-AvdLabCrashTest.ps1 -RunChaos -Scenario DrainHost,SingleHostRestart,AllHostsRestart,SingleHostDeallocateStart,AllHostsDeallocateStart
```

The live crash test intentionally disrupts hosts. Use it only when no one needs an active session.

## Deployment Profiles

| Profile | Purpose | Defaults |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `lab` | Lowest-friction demo | 2 x `Standard_D2s_v5`, StandardSSD, FSLogix Standard LRS, auto-shutdown on |
| `dev` | Small development profile | Same cost posture as lab, separate environment naming |
| `prod` | Production-like comparison | 4 x `Standard_D4s_v5`, Premium disks, Premium/ZRS FSLogix, governance on |

Use the [Azure Pricing Calculator](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/) for current pricing.

## Repository Map

## Important Notes

- Start VM on Connect and autoscale require Azure Virtual Desktop service-principal RBAC.
- AVD autoscale owns host-pool load balancing during schedule windows, so Terraform ignores `load_balancer_type` drift on the host pool.
- FSLogix with Entra Kerberos requires tenant and storage prerequisites.
- Private endpoint modes are off by default because local public laptops often cannot reach private-only data-plane endpoints during bootstrap.
- Keep local `terraform.tfstate` private. It can contain sensitive values.
