## DESCRIPTION
Creates a New VPG Settings object targeting an Azure ZCA. A Zerto VPG Settings Identifier will be returned to as the VPG will need to be updated with the Virtual Machines that will be members of this VPG.

## EXAMPLES

### Example 1
```powershell
PS C:\> $VpgSettingsIdentifier = New-ZertoAzureVpg -Name "Example VPG" -Priority "Medium" -JournalHistoryInHours 24 -RpoInSeconds 300 -TestIntervalInMinutes 262080 -UseWanCompression $True -targetSiteName "My Azure Site" -liveNetworkName "Vnet_EastUS_Prod" -liveSubnetName "EUS-Subnet-1" -liveSecurityGroupName "SGP_East_Us_Prod" -LiveInstanceType "Standard_DS1_v2" -liveDiskType "ManagedPremiumSSD" -testNetworkName "Vnet_EastUS_Test" -testSubnetName "EUS-Subnet-2" -testSecurityGroupName "SGP_East_Us_Test" -testInstanceType "Standard_DS1_v2" -testDiskType "ManagedPremiumSSD"
```

Creates a VPG with the specified settings returning a Vpg Settings Identifier to the specified variable to be used in later steps creating the Vpg. All parameters are specified in this example.

### Example 2
```powershell
PS C:\> $VpgSettingsIdentifier = New-ZertoAzureVpg -Name "Example VPG" -targetSiteName "My Azure Site" -liveNetworkName "Vnet_EastUS_Prod" -liveSubnetName "EUS-Subnet-1" -liveSecurityGroupName "SGP_East_Us_Prod" -LiveInstanceType "Standard_DS1_v2" -testNetworkName "Vnet_EastUS_Test" -testSubnetName "EUS-Subnet-2" -testSecurityGroupName "SGP_East_Us_Test" -testInstanceType "Standard_DS1_v2"
```

Creates a VPG with the specified settings returning a Vpg Settings Identifier to the specified variable to be used in later steps creating the Vpg. Only mandatory parameters are specified in this example.
