Using existing resources: RG, Vnet, Jumpbox etc

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Hi. We are part of a big org that has restriction on IT policies.
How can one use the followings:

1. an existing vnet and/or resource group instead of creating one?
2. disabling Hyper threading?
3. attaching a storage account?
4. enabling Mellanox fabric for HBv3 and HC44rc?

Describe the solution you'd like
Modification to config file that enables item above

Thank you

Hi @imangohari1
I would suggest you to have a look at our new solution https://github.com/Azure/az-hop which will allow you to do 1.
4 is always done on these machines if you use the HPC Azure marketplace images.
for 2 and 3 this depends on what you want to do but definitively part of the customization that can be done on az-hop.

@xpillons
Thank you for pointing out the az-hop. I couldn't find SLURM as an scheduler option on there (only PBS). Is that the case?
If SLURM is supported could you point me to its onboarding/tutorial like this one: https://github.com/Azure/azurehpc/tree/master/examples/simple_hpc_slurm
Thanks.

SLURM is on our roadmap for az-hop, but no ETA defined yet. We will be happy to follow up once added.
