¹ For capacity management purposes, the default quotas for new Batch accounts in some regions and for some subscription types have been reduced from the above range of values. In some cases, these limits have been reduced to zero. When you create a new Batch account, check your quotas and request an appropriate core or service quota increase, if necessary. Alternatively, consider reusing Batch accounts that already have sufficient quota or user subscription pool allocation Batch accounts to maintain core and VM family quota across all Batch accounts on the subscription. Service quotas like active jobs or pools apply to each distinct Batch account even for user subscription pool allocation Batch accounts.

² To request an increase beyond this limit, contact Azure Support.

Note

Default limits vary depending on the type of subscription you use to create a Batch account. Cores quotas shown are for Batch accounts in Batch service mode. View the quotas in your Batch account.
