Hello,

Are NC6 instances now available at Japan and Korea regions? How would the planned NC series retirement affect those new instances?

Thanks,

Jim

    It was announced earlier that NC series will retire on 31st August 2022, however now the date has been extended to 31 August 2023. If you have NC 6 series, you need plan it to deallocate or change the size prior to 31 August 2023. After 31 August 2023, any remaining NC virtual machines on your subscription will be set to a deallocated state, cease to be available, and will no longer incur billing charges.
