Unable to Deploy Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server in Various Regions

Question

Experiencing issues when attempting to deploy an Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server. The configuration details are as follows:

• Subscription: Subscription 2
• Resource Group: GL_Project4_ResourceGroup
• Server Name: gl-project4-azuredb-mysql-flexible
• Region: East US
• MySQL Version: 8.0
• Workload Type: For development or hobby projects
• Compute + Storage: Burstable, B1ms, 1 vCore, 2 GiB RAM, 20 GiB storage, Auto scale IOPS
• Geo-redundancy: Disabled
• Availability Zone: No preference
• Allow Public Access: Yes

Despite trying multiple regions, including East US and Central US, the following error message appears:

{
  "code": "ProvisionNotSupportedForRegion",
  "message": "Provisioning in requested region is not supported."
}

Any insights on resolving this issue would be appreciated.

Answer 1

Hi Seth,

This error can be a result of limited capacity in the region so they restrict which subscriptions are allowed to deploy.

Please carefully follow my instructions below to create a new Service and subscription limits (quotas) request to allow access to deploy Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server in East US.

1. Navigate to this link to start the process:

2. Click Create a support request button at top

3. If you see Support AI Assistant as shown below, click Switch to old experience button on right. Otherwise, proceed to step #4

4. Enter quota in the box and click Go

5. Select Others / Service and subscription limits (quotas) and click Next

6. Click Create a support request button, as shown

7. Select Issue type: Service and subscription limits (quotas), Subscription, Quota type: Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server, click Next

8. Now you should be on Additional details tab. Click Enter details

9. Select Region access or Region access with zonal dependency, select Location you need, enter number of cores needed, click Save and continue

10. Finish filling out Additional details tab, click Next, review and click Create. You should receive an automated email within a few minutes.

NOTE: It is possible that they will deny your request due to capacity limit or other reason, but at least you tried.
