I have a MSDN Subscription that includes $150.00 of Azure Credits that I use for test and development. I just recently completed several experiments deploying Azure Static Web Apps and containers which burned about $22 of the $150 Credits. However, when I tried to deploy a Virtual Machine in East US, I cannot get past the Create+VM screen. I am stuck with the following message "This size is currently unavailable in eastus for this subscription: NotAvailableForSubscription.".

I have no policies, quotas or restrictions were defined. All regions generated the same result. I even used Azure Copilot to run a Graph API query which found that there were no available VM sizes available. All bills are current. Tried other resources no problem. Listed all available VMs and tried using one of those.

More detailed error from Az PowerShell:

The requested VM size for resource 'Following SKUs have failed for Capacity Restrictions: Standard_D4s_v3' is currently not available in location 'eastus'. Please try another size or deploy to a different location or different zone. See https://aka.ms/azureskunotavailable for details.

ErrorCode: SkuNotAvailable

ErrorMessage: The requested VM size for resource 'Following SKUs have failed for Capacity Restrictions: Standard_D4s_v3' is currently not available in location 'eastus'. Please try another size or deploy to a different location or different zone. See https://aka.ms/azureskunotavailable for details.

ErrorTarget: vmSize

StatusCode: 409

ReasonPhrase:

OperationID : cd40fded-9ab1-40cb-a0a8-18540a34d818". Any suggestions as to why I can no longer create any VMs?

    Hi Mean Average Joe Green,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

    Based on the issue description, looks like you are trying to create a VM in East US, but you are getting an error that the 'Following SKUs have failed for Capacity Restrictions: Standard_D4s_v3' is currently not available in location eastus.

    Below are few suggestions you can try to solve your deployment issue:

    The VM size Standard_D4s_v3 might be unavailable in East US due to current capacity limits. You can use az vm list-sizes --location eastus --output table to list all the available VM sizes in the region. Select a different VM size that is available in the East US location.

    If the specific VM size is critical for your requirements, you can choose a different Azure region or location where the desired VM size is available.

    If your deployment requires zone-specific resources, consider deploying to a different zone within the East US location. Not all VM sizes may be available in all zones of a given region.

    If you have any further queries, please do let us know.
