I'm trying to do this exercise on the Learn platform: https://microsoftlearning.github.io/mslearn-ai-fundamentals/Instructions/Labs/01-machine-learning.html

No problems on selecting the first virtual machine under the "Use automated machine learning to train a model" steps.

However under the "Review the best model" steps even the first images best model summary algorithm name doesn't reflect what I see on my training job. Also when trying to "Deploy and test the model", selecting any of the VMs (even those that are supposed to be available for my subscription) can't start the deployment.**

    Hi Ville

    It seems you are experiencing issues with selecting a virtual machine (VM) for deploying your model in the Azure Machine Learning environment.

    To troubleshoot the VM selection issue, consider the following steps:

    • Ensure that the VM images you are trying to use are enabled in your lab plan. Sometimes, specific VM images may not be available due to lab plan configurations.
    • Make sure that the VM you are trying to deploy is in the same resource group and region as your Azure Machine Learning workspace.
    • Confirm that your Azure account has the necessary permissions (Owner or Contributor role) to create and manage resources in the lab plan.
    • Be aware that Azure Lab Services has limitations on VM sizes. Ensure that the VM size you are trying to select does not exceed these limits.

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.
