vCPU quota incorrect

Question

I recently deleted an E16-4ds_v4 virtual machine. Once the machine was deleted I noticed that quota of vCPUs doesn't included the vCPUs that where allocated to that machine.

How do I get these back or am I misunderstanding how the quota works?

Answer 1

@Mark Millington checking into this it appears that the E16-4ds_v4 VM still counts as 16vCPU in the limits. I tested and believe this is as expected, working to confirm and update the documentation so it reflects this. I will update this thread once it is confirmed and updated.

So your limits look like this.
3 * E4ds_v4 =12 vCPU
1 * E16-4ds_v4 = 16 vCPU
EDSv4 Family vCPUs = 28
2 * D4_v3 = 8 vCPU
Total Regional vCPUs = 28 + 8 = 36

Answer 2

@Anonymous I have added the screen shots you requested but have obfuscated the virtual machine names.

The two D4_v3 machines both have 4 VCPUs

The three E4ds_v4 machines have 4 VCPUs
The E16-4ds_v4 machine also has 4 VCPUs allocated to it. I initially setup an E16ds_v4 machine but then deleted it and resized this machine from an E4ds_v4. I resized it incorrectly. When I look at our regional allowance it says we have used 28 of 32 but my calculations are 24 out of 32.

Please can you assist.

@Mark Millington
I understand that you are deleting a VM but still seeing it count towards the vCPU limit. Please correct me if I am misunderstanding.

Once your instance is deleted the usage should be restored for both the VM-family vCPU and regional vCPU quotas. If you are not seeing it restored, please share screenshots from the Usage + quotas page and the Virtual machines page. We will be happy to work with you directly to investigate.
