I have added the Contributor role to me and still cannot deploy the machine type. I have tried the machine version in the error below, and then also Standard_B1ms, Standard_B2S. None of them work. What region can I choose to deploy one of these machine types for this SBC?

Hi @ Derek Dell,

As I can see, the Standard_DS1_v2 SKU is not available in the West Central US region. You can try using a different SKU or deploying the VM in a different region.

I tried creating the same resource in my subscription, and I ran into the same error as you.

If you specifically need this region, you can raise a quota request from the Azure portal. Before proceeding, check the available limits using the following command:
You can raise the Quota by following the Request a quota increase.

az vm list-skus --location westcentralus --size Standard_DS1_v2' --all --output table

Hi @ Derek Dell,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform.

When deploying a Ribbon Virtual SBC (SWe Edge) using Quick Launch, validation errors on the Storage Configuration and Networking Settings pages are typically related to permissions or subscription-level restrictions, rather than an issue with the Ribbon image.

Ensure that your account has at least Contributor permissions on:

The target subscription or resource group
Ability to create network interfaces, public IPs (if applicable), and **storage accounts.

Insufficient permissions to create or attach network or storage resources can cause validation failures during deployment.

If you specifically need this region, you can raise a quota request from the Azure portal. Before proceeding, check the available limits using the following command: You can raise the Quota by following the Request a quota increase.

Azure CLI

az vm list-skus --location westcentralus --size Standard_DS1_v2' --all --output table
