So in the Eval guide

https://github.com/Azure/AzureStackHCI-EvalGuide/blob/main/deployment/steps/1_DeployAzureVM.md

It says you can sign up for free Azure acocunt , get the $200 free and you'll have plenty resource to try

"The second option would be to sign up for a free trial, which gives you $200 credit for the first 30 days, and 12 months of popular services for free. The credit for the first 30 days will give you plenty of headroom to validate Azure Stack HCI."

Well did that and have my free account. Now to try and deploy the template, it want a 16vCPU count and free account is limite3d to 4vCPU. Tried the upgrade to Pay as You go and now i aint got any CPU's. Really wanted to do the eval but looks like might not be able to going by the guide.

Commentrs? Why say you can try for free when it appears not?

Hi - thanks for catching this. I may have missed this, apologies - I've added wording to reflect the need to upgrade the "free trial" to PAYG, and this will allow you to keep your $200 for 30 days, but relax the restrictions on vCPUs.

If you still have problems creating large VMs in that subscription (irrespective of this eval guide), you can open up a support ticket and the support team will fix that for you. You should be able to create VMs with up to 20 vCPUs under PAYG without issue (and more that 20 vCPUs if you contact support to remove the quota limit).
