[Storage] Retrieving blob copy status

See original GitHub issue

How can I check the status of a async blob copy? The az storage blob copy cancel appears to be the only blob command to take a --copy-id as returned from a az storage blob copy start command. I would like to be able to get some sense of progress on the copy operation.

A nice bonus would be being able to optionally block/wait on the copy operation.

Consider adding a note to the az storage blob copy documentation about where to check the status of the copy operation.

Thanks @tjprescott! We are using copy start-batch as recommended in https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/issues/1527.

Just tested the following and it worked great!

az storage blob show \
--name Microsoft.Compute/Images/vhds/capture-1234-osDisk.hexcodestuffvhd \
--container-name system \
--account-name myAccountName

Perhaps a note in the help output or an alias under az storage blob copy would be useful. Particularly because that is where the copy_id is given, and where the cancel operation lives.

You can close this issue. Thanks again.
