Unable to create Azure VM using Powershell - powershell

Question

Using PS 5. 0 on windows 10 I created an Azure Storage account and an Azure Service. Got the latest image name using the following command. But when I run the following command to create a VM I get following error:
PS Command to get the latest image:
$images = Get-AzureVMImage `
| where { $_.ImageFamily -eq “Windows Server 2012 Datacenter” } `
| Sort-Object -Descending -Property PublishedDate
$latestImage = $images[0]
$latestImage
The above command ran successfully and gave me the image name as: a699494373c04fc0bc8f2bb1389d6106__Windows-Server-2012-R2-20171017-en.us-127GB.vhd that I used in the following command for creating a VM.
PS command to create VM:
New-AzureVMConfig -Name "Server15" -InstanceSize ExtraSmall -ImageName "a699494373c04fc0bc8f2bb1389d6106__Windows-Server-2012-R2-20171017-en.us-127GB.vhd" | Add-AzureProvisioningConfig -Windows -AdminUsername "MyAdmin" -Password "MyPsswd" | New-AzureVM -ServiceName "MyServiceName"
Error:
WARNING: No deployment found in service: 'MyServiceName'.
New-AzureVM : BadRequest: OSImage a699494373c04fc0bc8f2bb1389d6106__Windows-Server-2012-R2-20171017-en.us-127GB.vhd
not found. If you are using a VM image, it must be specified as VMImageName for the role, not as SourceImageName for

Your script works for me, here is the output:
PS C:\Users\jason> New-AzureVMConfig -Name "Server16" -InstanceSize ExtraSmall -ImageName "a699494373c04fc0bc8f2bb1389d6106__Windows-Server-2012-R2-20171017-en.us-127GB.vhd" | Add-AzureProvisioningConfig -Windows -AdminUse
rname "jason" -Password "xxxxxxx" | New-AzureVM -ServiceName "jasontest321"

Please check your Azure PowerShell version, for now the latest version is 5.0.1, my Azure PowerShell version is 4.4.1, that script works fine, maybe we should upgrade your Azure PowerShell.
We can download Azure PowerShell 5.0.1 installer to your Windows 10 and install it, then test it again.
More information about Azure PowerShell Version, please refer to this link.
Hope this helps.
