Microsoft M128ds_v2 Azure Virtual Machine Reservation

Apply a Microsoft Azure Reserved Instance entitlement to M128ds_v2 virtual machine usage associated with the MDSv2 series in the US North Central region. DZH318Z08LV1-0069 identifies the specific regional VM reservation selection rather than a deployable operating system image or a physical server. The selection matters because Azure VM reservations are associated with a configured VM family, size, and region. Use this reservation where workloads already require, or are planned for, the M128ds_v2 compute size in US North Central. It works alongside Azure virtual machine deployment and administration: the reservation does not create a VM, install software, select an operating system, or change a VM size. Matching workload configuration remains necessary for the reservation to apply to the intended compute usage. Within the MDSv2 reservation range, this selection is distinguished by its M128ds_v2 VM-size scope and its US North Central regional scope. Those attributes should match the target Azure workload before the entitlement is assigned. Administrators managing multiple Azure regions or VM sizes should treat each combination as a separate reservation choice, because a different size or region represents a different compute requirement.
