Before working through the exercises in the next section, let's get a level set and clear out all unnecessary resources. You don't want to hit a quota on CPUs or public IPs.

At this point, let's delete the entire VMLab resource group and recreate it. This will delete all resources that currently reside within the resource group.

To delete the VMLab resource group, use the following command:

Remove-AzureRmResourceGroup -Name "VMLab" -Force

This command will take quite a while to complete, since it is removing several resources from the resource group. Once it completes, run the following command below to create an empty VMLab resource group:

New-AzureRmResourceGroup "VMLab" -location "EastUS"

After running these commands, you are left with an empty resource group, called VMLab, in the EastUS location.
