Use this file to add websites to, and remove them from, a web role. The website to add must be uploaded to a dedicated website container in a blob storage.
When you add the information about the website uploaded to the blob storage (its name and its website container name), it gets down-synced to the web role of the deployment.
The following are parameters available for configuration in this file:
| Parameter | Description | Value |
| name | The name of the website on IIS in a web role | [e.g. "contoso"] |
| storename | The name of a website container in a blob storage where the website has been uploaded and gets down-synced to the web role from. | [e.g. "contoso-website"] |
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><Websites> <Website name="contoso" storename="contoso-website"/> <Website name="fabrikam" storename="fabrikam-website"/></Websites> |
