Hello Alexandros, Welcome to MS Q&A

The free Azure plan has certain limitations, including core quotas, which might be causing the issue you're experiencing. To resolve this, you may need to upgrade your Azure subscription to a higher tier that offers more resources and higher quotas.

Please accept answer if it helps

Kindly let us know if further questions

Thanks

The Free Plan clearly states that you can use the Batch Tool/Account for free so there must be a certain limit compared to not using it at all.

I've set the amount of nodes to 4 which is like 4 probes...which should be practically free. I only want to use Azure for baking acoustics if that's not possible well i don't mind baking it locally again. A 200$ plan should be a 200$ plan.

These quotas can restrict the number of cores you can use simultaneously, which might be causing the issue you're experiencing.so If you prefer to continue using the free tier, you might need to reduce the number of cores or nodes you are using in your Batch pool to stay within the quota limits.

The problem is that the node number is insanely low, and it still doesn't run. I cant really reduce the node count even more because that would beat the reason of using Azure. The clear purpose of using Azure is to speed the baking process, not slowing it down.

Ok then Here are the steps to request a quota increase but I am not sure if it will work for free tier or you need to upgrade to higher tier

Navigate to the Azure portal: Go to the Azure portal.

Search for "Subscriptions": In the search bar at the top, type "Subscriptions" and select it from the dropdown.

Select your subscription: Choose the subscription you are using for your Azure Batch account.

Click on "Usage + quotas": In the left-hand menu, click on "Usage + quotas".

Request an increase: Find the quota you are hitting (e.g., "Total Regional vCPUs") and click on "Request increase". Follow the prompts to submit your request.

The Free Trial Plan doesnt allow for that.
