title: Azure Virtual Machine Start-Up task
body: <p>We are creating a multi-tenant application and hosting it on Window Azure IaaS platform.
  We want to provision and configure all our virtual machines remotely using PowerShell.
  We don't want to RDP into VMs for any configuration. </p>
  
  <p>Does Azure VMs support start up tasks to execute power shell scripts similar to Web-Role and Worker-Role?</p>
  
  <p>If no, then are there any alternatives available (tools like PsExec) which can help in executing start-up scripts?</p>
