Please try another size or deploy to a different location or different zone. i have free azure subsription.

Answer 1

Hi @Pappu Yadav The error "Cloud Provider Resource Stockout" occurs when the requested VM size is unavailable in the selected region due to capacity restrictions. Since you're using a free Azure subscription, availability may be further limited.

Troubleshooting Steps

1. Try a Different VM Size: Some VM sizes may be more readily available. You can check available SKUs in your region using the Azure CLI:

      az vm list-skus --location westus2 --output table
   

   This will list VM sizes currently available in westus2.
2. Deploy to a Different Region: If your preferred VM size isn't available in westus2, consider deploying to a nearby region with better availability, such as centralus or eastus.
3. Check for Regional Capacity Fluctuations: Azure's VM availability can change, especially for free-tier accounts. You might have better luck during off-peak hours or in less saturated regions.
4. Consider Upgrading to a Paid Subscription: Free-tier accounts often have limited access to certain VM SKUs. Upgrading to a paid plan can unlock more regions and VM types.
