mount_azure_fileshare.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
# This bash script allows to mount a fileshare storage in a linux VM. 
# Before executing dist you have to create a fileshare in your storage account. For that go to https://ms.portal.azure.com,
# select your storage, under Services press Files, create a File Share with a name and a size (max. 5Tb). The name you 
# chose is $FILESHARE_NAME in this script.  
#
# WARNING: The VM and the storage has to be in the same region!
#
# Usage:
# sudo bash mount_azure_fileshare.sh storage_name storage_key fileshare_name mount_point
# Example:
# sudo bash mount_azure_fileshare.sh azure_account1 3425324534eREWTSDER+2343243fsdfw4q3== fileshare_data /mnt/fileshare
