Suggested Answer:

The total regional vCPUs is 20 so that means a maximum total of 20 vCPUs across all the different VM sizes. The deallocated VM with 16 vCPUs counts towards the total. VM20 and VM1 are using 18 of the maximum 20 vCPUs leaving only two vCPUs available.

Correct Answer: Total regional vCPUs = 20 2 vCPUs (VM1) + 16 vCPUs (VM20) = 18 vCPUs, which means that only 2 vCPUs left to exceed usage limit. Box 1: Yes We can add 1 vCPU. 2 vCPUs (VM1) + 16 vCPUs (VM20) + 1 vCPU (VM3) = 19 vCPUs Box 2: No We cannot add 4 vCPUs. 2 vCPUs (VM1) + 16 vCPUs (VM20) + 4 vCPU (VM4) = 22 vCPUs Box 3: No We cannot add 16 vCPU. 2 vCPUs (VM1) + 16 vCPUs (VM20) + 16 vCPU (VM5) = 34 vCPUs Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/quota

Correct - Y,N,N. I tested here in the lab enviroment! On thing to be clear here is that people can be confused about VM's Family Bs and Ds vCPUs. They're different for sure, but Microsoft says: "The vCPU quotas for virtual machines and scale sets are arranged in two tiers for each subscription, in each region. The first tier is the Total Regional vCPUs, and the second tier is the various VM size family cores such as the D-series vCPUs. Anytime a new VM is deployed the vCPUs for the VM must not exceed the vCPU quota for the VM size family or the total regional vCPU quota. If you exceed either of those quotas, the VM deployment won't be allowed. " "Quota is calculated based on the total number of cores in use both allocated and deallocated. If you need additional cores, request a quota increase or delete VMs that are no longer needed." https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/quotas

But VM2 status is stopped (deallocated). Would that not make those stopped CPUs available for other machines?

Correct YES NO NO The deallocated VM are still using and reserving the used 16 vCPU + 2 vCPU ,so in total we only have 2 vCPU available in the region

Why does it say VM20?? It says, "VM20 and VM1 are using 18 of the maximum 20 vCPUs leaving only two vCPUs available." Isn't this supposed to be VM2 instead of VM20??

Y: 2 vCPUs (VM1) + 16 vCPUs (VM20) + 1 vCPU (VM3) = 19 vCPUs N: 19 vCPUs + 4 vCPU (VM4) = 22 vCPUs > Total regional vCPUs limit N: same reason Passed the exam on 26 July 2023. Scored 870. Similar question came.

It is Yes, Yes, No. VM4 is a D family and there is not any other D family before deploying VM4 and we have 20 quota. So the answer for VM4 is "YES"

The 20 limit of vCPUs contains all categories. The table makes it confusing and gives the impression we have 20 for each, but it's 20 in total.

Quota is calculated based on the total number of cores in use both allocated and deallocated. If you need additional cores, request a quota increase or delete VMs that are no longer needed.

1) You can deploy VM3 to West US: "Yes" 2) You can deploy VM4 to West US: "No" 3) You can deploy VM5 to West US: "No" Explanation: Even though the VM2 is in a Stopped (Deallocated) Status and we do not get charged for the CPU\RAM resources, the quota will not have the resources available to be consumed by other VM's. Since the quota specifies a maximum of 20 Total regional vCPU's, we currently have 18 reserved by VM1 and VM2, so we can just deploy VM3. VM4 and VM5 surpass our budget.

Why is the total regional vCPUs quota set to 20? I only found: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/azure-subscription-service-limits But this is "Classic deployment model limits"
