Hello @ghada
The most likely cause is an insufficient GPU quota. Verify the availability of the Standard_NC4as_T4_v3 series in West Europe, check both vCPU and GPU quotas, and explicitly specify the SKU during VM creation. If the GPU quota is 0, request an increase.
Verify VM Availability in West Europe
Use the Azure CLI to confirm the availability of the Standard_NC4as_T4_v3 series in the West Europe region.
az vm list-skus --location "westeurope" --filter "name.starts_with('Standard_NC4as_T4_v3')" --output table
If the command returns no results, the SKU is not available in that region.
Verify Quota Details
Check the quota limits for the NCasT4v3 series, specifically the GPU quota.
az vm list-usage --location "westeurope" --output table
Look for NcadsT4v3Family and GPUs. Ensure the GPU quota is at least 1. If the GPU quota is 0, request an increase.
Specify the SKU During Deployment
When creating the VM, explicitly specify the Standard_NC4as_T4_v3 SKU.
Using Azure CLI:
az vm create \ --resource-group MyResourceGroup \ --name MyGpuVm \ --location "westeurope" \ --image Ubuntu2204 \ --size "Standard_NC4as_T4_v3" \ --admin-username azureuser \ --generate-ssh-keys
