During the solution activation procedure, you need to specify the Azure region on which the pool and additional Helper VMs will be created. By default, each Azure region has a quota limit to the number of cores that can be used by the VMs that run on it. If this quota limit is lower than the number of cores you want to use for executing tasks on the cloud, you need to increase in advance this quota. The quota increase is done at the subscription level, by sending a request to Azure support via Azure portal.
The VMs that are created by IncrediBuild Cloud for your task execution belong to one of the following families:
- Standard Av2 Family
- Standard DSv3 Family
- Standard ESv3 Family
- Standard FSv2 Family
Note: You select your desired VM family and type during the activation procedure in the IncrediBuild Cloud Settings page.
It is recommended to increase the quota of your selected VM family to at least the number of cores you want to allocate for executing your tasks on the cloud.
