If your ISO is for a Linux distribution, Azure has specific requirements for preparing the image before uploading. I would follow the instructions in the official documentation in that instance (i.e. create a VM, modify it as instructed, upload).

-VhdFormat VHD
-- Convert-WindowsImage creates a VHDX by default, but Azure requires the VHD format.joslackMSFTjoslackMSFT
