Hello

I haven't personally done it, but seems in azure you can create your own custom image:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/linux/create-upload-generic

Have you tried that?

Yes we do this in current deployment procedure to create base image, deploy thru arm template. 

we are working on creating immutable infrastructure using packer and terraform.

we do not wan to use community OS, so instead in packer 

    "image_publisher": "OpenLogic",

    "image_offer": "CentOS",

    "image_sku": "7.3",

i am looking for something like 

    "source_managed_image_resource_group_name" : "source_managed_image_resource_group_name"

    "source_managed_image_name" : "source_managed_image_name"

Thanks, 

Dhinesh
