I am trying to create two VMs, one WS2012 and second Win8.1. I want them to be able to connect to each other through cloud only virtual network.
When I am creating VMs I dont see my virtual network. All their locations(south central US) are same.
This is what I used to create VNet - article.
Pretty much keeping everything default except for location.
UPDATE:
Turns out it was an issues of subscriptions getting mixed up. I am co-admin on other two subscriptions, and seems like my network and VM were created in different subscriptions hence I could not see my network in the drop down when I was creating the VM.

Probably because you are creating the VMs using the quick create button instead of using From Gallery.
Navigate New >> Compute >> Virtual Machine >> From Gallery.
Follow the wizard and select your Virtual Network. Deploy both VMs on the same Vnet and you should have direct connectivity.

I'm trying to start/stop my Linux VM on Azure but I can neither start nor stop my VM. It stucks at "Starting virtual machine..." when starting and "Stopping virtual machine..." when stopping then throws an error and says "Failed". In my overview screen of my VM, IP address of the VM won't go away so it looks like VM is not stopping at all. How can I fix this?
We are currently experiencing an outage in South Central US
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/status/
You will want to monitor the Azure Status Page for further updates. Unfortunately we cannot do anything until the problem has been mitigated by engineering.
As a side note, we have multiple backups of all customer data so no data loss should occur. Once the issue has mitigated all Virtual Machines and data should be restored and fully functional. After the issue has been mitigated and if you are still seeing issues let us know.

My company is integrating with this company to enable us both consume services built on each other's platform to provide joint services extended to external users.
They recently sent me a file containing their VPN configuration with spaces provided to enter ours as well. Now I am not so savvy about VPNs plus our server is hosted in an Azure VM (windows server 2012 R2). I don't know if our hosting arrangement is VPN-ready by default. How am I supposed to go about this?
Any helpful articles or guidance is a welcome boon at this time.
PS.
My knowledge on networking is next to nothing. Just know the basest of things there.
there are two options to create the VPN to your cloud infrastructure:
1) By external services like OpenVPN - in that case, your involvement into what should be done will be to open some endpoints. Tutorials are available.
2) By internal service called Virtual Network. In that case, you should first place your VM to the Virtual Network, and then use tutorial. As the networking is a big topic, i would propose you to read the official tutorial instead of putting that information here.
So, basically, to get your VM ready for the VPN, you should:
1) Create Virtual Network
2) Place the VM into that VN
3) Configure both cloud and local gateways
4) Install the VPN client.

At https://portal.azure.com , in the Browse All Resources page, there is a Name column. How can I change the name of a resource?
I have been looking around, but I cannot find that option. Is it not allowed?
I already changed the Virtual Machine host name, but for consistency, I would like the Name matches the host name, otherwise I will always have to remember that foo_x virtual machine matches the machine with host name foo_y and with domain name foo_z.cloudapp.net.
You can not change VM name in the portal as it is DNS name (i.e. *.cloudapp.net) which belongs to the cloud service. If you want to change the DNS name, you'll need to delete the cloud service, recreate it using the new name, and then redeploy the VM inside of it(delete the VM while retaining all the Disks that were attached to it, then recreate the VM with the new name and reattach the Disks that were attached to the original VM).

Is it possible to have multiple websites load balanced with traffic manager on say 2 or more webserver vm's in Azure? and if so, how does traffic manager get setup so that it can monitor each website service as opposed to the server itself?
It seems like it can only monitor the port on the webserver, so this implies that traffic manager will only work if one website is running on each webserver.
Can someone clear this up for me?
Thanks in advance.
It depends on what you mean by webserver. Windows Azure Traffic Manager (WATM) is intended for 2 different deployments in 2 different datacenters. Using WATM you can achieve your goal. The setup would be like:
www.myapp1.com -> myapp1.trafficmanager.net -> {endpoints in multiple datacenters}:{port for myapp1 health probe}
www.myapp2.com -> myapp2.trafficmanager.net -> {the same endpoints as myapp1}:{port for myapp2 health probe}
However, if you are referring to 2 webservers as in 2 different VMs in the same datacenter then you would just add them both to load balancer set and configure the LB probes for each site.

Does anyone know if this is possible? Browsing around on the internet I found out that it had been put on the roadmap but that was quite a way back. Has anyone achieved this? It seems odd that such a big player in the hosting industry doesn't offer this, as AWS does.
Also, I'm talking about reverse dns on virtual machines not the ip addresses of cloud services. I assumed it was something to do on the configuration of the linux machine, since the virtual machines have root access I thought this may have been possible, although struggling to find info on it.
It looks like Reverse DNS feature is planned but I was not able to find more details on any timeline / planned release date.
You can find out more on those features on Provide Reverse DNS for the Azure Virtual Machines as well as reverse DNS lookup proposals on Windows Azure Feature Voting website.
EDIT
As pointed out by #franzo, Windows Azure platform now support reverse DNS records at no additional cost. Reverse DNS support is for all PaaS and IaaS Cloud Services. You can find out more about that feature on Announcing: Reverse DNS for Azure Cloud Services.
