I'm using the Hyper-V iso builder to make a base image for use with Azure BYOL, and would like to have a post-processor that will convert my vhdx output to vhd and upload it to an Azure storage container.

Start by locating the Azure plugin's post-processor entry points and its existing image or storage integration. Define the conversion and upload flow for Hyper-V VHDX output, then verify that a converted VHD reaches the requested Azure storage container.
