GPU / NV series sizes available for Virtual Desktop Preview?

Hi there,

 

Exploring VDI options for our heavy graphics workloads.  Been trying to create a host pool for the Virtual Desktop Preview.  When I attempt to provision a host pool using the Azure portal the only NV series options I can see are the NV_v2 series.  They were grayed out due to a 0 quota for our subscription.  Thus I opened a quota increase ticket.  

 

When I received a ticket response the representative said NV_v2 is no longer supported.

 

Is there another size supported from the NV series for Virtual Desktop?  If so how do I obtain access to provision a host pool in that size? 

 

Thanks,

Mitch

      OK, got it.  Think I may have been looking in an incorrect region.

       

      I also went ahead and did a manual host pool and provisioned an NV and added it manually.  Having issues with the browser opening the port to the machine.

       

      I know documentation says RDP standard port isn't needed, so in Azure I changed the RDP port for system preparation.  Any ideas out there if changing that port may have screwed up the ability of the host pool?

       

      Thanks, Mitch

        Hi Mitchell Garner ,

         

        I don't know if changing the RDP port is messing with your deployment, but could you run a Get-RDSSessionHost cmdlet to check the Status of your Sessionhost? It should say "Available" & UpdateState should say "Succeeded"

         

        If that is OK, and you still get the error, you should check the Get-RdsDiagnosticActivities cmdlet with the -detailed parameter to see what the underlying error is
