Service quotas and limits - Azure Batch (2023)

  • Article

As with other Azure services, Azure Batch has limits on certain resources. For example, if your pool does not meet the target number of compute nodes, you may have reached the core quota limit for your Batch account. There are many default quota limits that Azure applies at the subscription or account level.

Consider these quotas when designing and scaling your aggregate workloads. You can run multiple batch workloads in a single batch account. Or you can deploy your workloads to Batch accounts in the same subscription but in different Azure regions. If you intend to run production workloads serially, you may need to increase one or more quotas above the default value. To increase the quotarequest an increase in the quotafree.

Kvote the resource

The quota is a limitation, not a guarantee of capacity. If you have large capacity needs, please contact Azure Support.

Also note that odds are not guaranteed values. Quotas may vary depending on changes made by the package service or the user's request to change the quota value.

1For capacity management reasons, the default quotas for new bulk accounts in some regions and for some subscription types have been reduced from the range of values ​​above. In some cases, these limits have been reduced to zero. When you create a new serial account,Check your oddsIrequest an appropriate core or service quota increase, If necessary. Alternatively, you can reuse bulk accounts that already have sufficient quotas or allocations of a set of user subscriptions. Bulk accounts can be used to maintain core and VM family quotas for all bulk accounts in a subscription. Service quotas such as active jobs or pools are applied to each individual Batch account, including Batch accounts with user subscription pool assignments.

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

Note

The default limits vary depending on the type of subscription you use to create a Bulk account. The basic quotas shown refer to collective accounts in collective service mode.Check the quotas in your Batch account.

Basic quotes

Basic quotas in group service mode

There are base quotas for each batch of virtual machines (VMs) supported by Batch. These basic layouts are shown onoutlookA page on the Azure portal. To update the VM batch quota limit:Open a support request.

  • For dedicated nodes, Batch enforces a core quota limit for each VM batch and an overall core quota limit for the entire Batch account.
  • For Spot nodes, Batch only enforces the total core quota for the Batch account without distinguishing between different VM batches.

Basic quotas in user subscription mode

If you created itjoint accountwith the pool allocation method setuser subscription, Batch VMs and other resources are created directly in your subscription when a pool is created or resized. Azure Batch core quotas do not apply, and quotas in your subscription for regional compute cores, compute cores per batch, and other resources are used and enforced.

For more information on these quotas seeLimits, quotas, and limits for Azure subscriptions and services.

Pool size limits

Pool size limits are set by the packet service. somehowKvote the resource, these values ​​cannot be changed. Only pools with node-to-node communication and custom images are subject to limits other than the default quota.

Increase the quota

You can request a quota increase for your Batch account or subscriptionAzure-Portalor usingAzure-Kontingent-REST-API.

(Video) Azure Batch Service

The type of quota increase depends on how your pool account pool was allocated. To request a quota increase, you must specify the VM series for which you wish to increase the quota. When a quota increase is applied, it is applied to all batches of VMs.

After you submit a support request, Azure Support will contact you. Quota requests can be fulfilled in minutes or up to two business days.

The nature of the quota

If necessary, you can choose between two types of quotasCreate your support request.

ChoosePro Batch-Accountto request an increase in quota for an individual collective account. These quota increases may include dedicated and spot cores and the number of jobs and pools. If you select this option, please specify the package account to which this request applies. Then select the quotas you want to update. For each resource, specify the new limit you are looking for. The spot quota is one value for all VM series. If you need limited SKUs, please selectSpot coreand include the VM families to request.

ChooseAll accounts in this regionto request an increase in the quota that applies to all collective accounts in the region. For example, use this option to increase the number of bulk accounts per region per subscription.

Batch sets in a VM configuration set up in an Azure virtual networkAutomatically allocate more Azure network resources. These resources are created in the subscription that contains the virtual network specified when the pool was created.

For every 100 cluster nodes in the virtual network, the following resources are created:

  • Asnetwork security group
  • Aspublic IP address
  • Asload balancer

These resources are limited by subscriptionKvote the resource. If you are planning large pool deployments in a virtual network, you may need to request a quota increase for one or more of these resources.
