Hey guys! (maybe) A noob question here:

I'm using Pulumi to set up an Azure VM and after the VM is up I'm using `pulumi_command` to connect and execute a script on the machine.
The issue is that sometimes the VM is not ready and causes an unexpected result in the first lines of the script.

How can I test (in the script or using Pulumi) if the VM is ready?

I've never used pulumi, but I'm looking forward to transition to it from terraform.
That said, I would suggest using a script that connects over ssh (assuming pulumi_command also uses ssh) and runs a consequenceless command, something to the effect of `ssh root@vm_ip echo "Ready"`

But I don't know how you're supposed to implement this in pulumi. I'm guessing though that this is done through ssh anyway. I've also never used Azure, so I've no idea :smile:
