Hi s.chatterjee,

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

I have moved the Databricks account id to private message and updated the question.

Thanks,

Hello s.chatterjee,

Here’s a general approach you can take:

Check Subscription Status: Log in to your Azure portal and verify if your subscription is active. If it has expired or is in a disabled state, you might need to renew or reactivate it.

Review Databricks Requirements: Ensure that the type of Azure subscription you have is compatible with Databricks and supports Unity Catalog. Some subscriptions may have limitations on services.

Let me know if you have further questions?

Thanks.
