issue in running diagnostics in azure

Question

I was trying to make a dummy diagnostics worker role using the following article

When i run the following command in step 4 :

(Get-AzureServiceAvailableExtension -ExtensionName 'PaaSDiagnostics' -ProviderNamespace 'Microsoft.Azure.Diagnostics').PublicConfigurationSchema | Out-File -Encoding utf8 -FilePath 'WadConfig.xsd'

I get the following error in azure powershell, we need the subscription in this command but not sure where. Also, is there a place where I can find how to make a dummy diagnostics worker role.

VERBOSE: 3:32:14 PM - Begin Operation: Get-AzureServiceAvailableExtension
Get-AzureServiceAvailableExtension : No default subscription has been designated. Use Select-AzureSubscription
-Default <subscriptionName> to set the default subscription.

Answer 1

First add your credentials using:

add-azureaccount

Next, select desired subscription (if you have more than one) using:

 Select-AzureSubscription -SubscriptionId <id>

Finally, try again.
