Hi @Niels Deckers ,
From the documentation
Multiple compute nodes: Individual nodes are not guaranteed to always be available. While uncommon, hardware failures, operating system updates, and a host of other issues can cause individual nodes to be offline. If your Batch workload requires deterministic, guaranteed progress, you should allocate pools with multiple nodes.
Hope that answers your question. Please feel free to accept it as answer ans/or up-vote for the benefit of community users.
Thank you.
