This looks like it may be related to the sticky but it's hard to tell from your error. If you are having trouble creating a VM because the size is not available in your region, you'll want to check out the sticky for more details:
If this is something else, let us know so we can help you troubleshoot this.

It looks like you are creating an Azure Spot instance which offers large discounts for using VMs in regions where there is unused capacity. Unfortunately there is currently a high demand for VMs in many regions which will make Spot Virtual Machines much more difficult to find. The sticky will offer more information on availability:
