Azure requires passwords to have One upper case, one lower case, a special character, and a number.* `dnsLabelPrefix`: This is used as both the VM name and DNS name of your public IP address. Please ensure an unique name.* `installMethod`: This tells Azure how to install the software bits. The default is using the community provided PPA.
