Azure Machine Learning Compute Instance Stuck in Starting State

Question

I'm encountering an issue with an Azure Machine Learning compute instance that's stuck in the "Starting" state. After some time, it transitions to a "Stopped" state without successfully starting.

Error Message: An internal error has occurred while setting up the node.

Details:

• Virtual Machine Size: Standard_D16s_v3 (16 cores, 64 GB RAM, 128 GB disk)
• Region: Central India
  

I would appreciate any insights or suggestions from the Microsoft forum community on how to resolve this issue and successfully start my Azure Machine Learning compute instance.
