## Migrating From AzureRM
3348

3449
To make it easier for existing scripts to migrate from AzureRM to Az, we have provided cmdlets to create aliases that map the cmdlet names in AzureRM into the appropriate cmdlets in Az. When the aliases are enabled, any script that uses AzureRM cmdlet names should run against Az without modification.
