I have tried with several regions for this deployment and I always get the same error mesage:

{
  "code": "ProvisionNotSupportedForRegion",
  "message": "Provisioning in requested region is not supported. Your subscription might not have access to create a server in the selected region. (https://aka.ms/mysqlcapacity)"
}

    Hi,

    When there is limited capacity in the region they restrict which subscriptions are allowed to deploy MySQL Flexible Server. The error will usually be similar to below:

    ProvisionNotSupportedForRegion Provisioning in requested region is not supported. Your subscription might not have access to create a server in the selected region.

    You should be able to deploy to a different region (e.g. West US 3) or follow instructions below to request access to your preferred region.

    Please carefully follow my instructions below to create a new Service and subscription limits (quotas) request to allow access to deploy Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server in your preferred region.

    1. Navigate to this link to start the process:

    https://portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.Support

    2. Enter quota in the box and click Go

    3. Select Others / Service and subscription limits (quotas) and click Next

    4. Click Create a support request button, as shown

    5. Select Issue type: Service and subscription limits (quotas), Subscription, Quota type: Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server, click Next

    service and subscription request problem description tab

    6. Now you should be on Additional details tab. Click Enter details

    7. Select Region access or Region access with zonal dependency, select Location you need, enter number of cores needed, click Save and continue

    mysql flexible server request region access

    8. Finish filling out Additional details tab, click Next, review and click Create. You should receive an automated email within a few minutes.

    NOTE: It is possible that they will deny your request due to capacity limit or other reason, but at least you tried.

    Hello Rodrigo Vega,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A and thank you for posting your questions here.

    I understand that you are having problems deploying an Azure DB MySQL Flexible Service.

    Things you can do are the following four steps:

    1. Confirm resource provider by run az provider show --namespace Microsoft.DBforMySQL --subscription <subid> > register if NotRegistered. https://docs.azure.cn/en-us/mysql/flexible-server/resolve-capacity-errors
    2. Check product availability by open Products by region page and confirm MySQL Flexible Server is available in the region. https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/explore/global-infrastructure/products-by-region
    3. Reproduce via CLI and copy correlation IDs by run an az mysql flexible-server create command and copy the full output (errors include request IDs):
    az mysql flexible-server create \
        --resource-group MyRG \
        --name mydbflex001 \
        --location <region> \
        --sku-name Standard_D2s_v3 \
        --storage-size 32 \
        --admin-user myadmin \
        --admin-password "<P@ssw0rd>" \
        --subscription <SUBSCRIPTION_ID>
    

    Save any correlation/request IDs returned by the CLI. These are more helpful to Microsoft support if you submit via your portal or https://free.blessedness.top/en-us/azure/azure-portal/supportability/priority-community-support (PCS).

    1. If still failing, open quota/region request in portal (Service and subscription limits > Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server) and paste the ticket template above. https://free.blessedness.top/en-us/azure/azure-portal/supportability/how-to-create-azure-support-request

    I hope this is helpful! Do not hesitate to let me know if you have any other questions or clarifications.

    Hi Rodrigo Vega,

    Thank you for the response!

    I understand you tried in East US, central US and west Europe, I think there is some capacity constraints issue, for a workaround can you try with West US2 region and let me know if you are still facing the same issue.

    Can you please try with West US2 region and confirm whether you are able to deploy the MY SQL flexible server or not.

    I did try creating server west US region it created successfully without any issues.
