Hello, need some help, I need to create multiple VMs using Azure Devops Pipelines. The pipeline works when creating one single or multiple when defining all the parameters in a single file. But I need to create dozens, so I created 2 modules, one for the windows VMs and one for the SQL VMs. As a test I’m trying to create 2 for each module but when the main file runs It creates 1 VM for each module, but the second fail with this error message: Error creating Windows Virtual Machine “vm02” (Resource Group “TerraformTestRG”): compute.VirtualMachinesClient#CreateOrUpdate: Failure sending request: StatusCode=0 – Original Error: autorest/azure: Service returned an error. Status= Code=“OperationNotAllowed” Message="Operation could not be completed as it results in exceeding approved standardDSv3Family Cores quota.

As the error says you do not have enough permitted capacity to create more cores, so you need to request a quota increase. ---

You are right, I must have missed that part of the log in the devops log output, thanks that was the fix, I changed the VM size and its indeed creating al required resources
