With overprovisioning turned on, the scale set actually spins up more VMs than you asked for, then deletes the extra VMs once the requested number of VMs are successfully provisioned. Overprovisioning improves provisioning success rates and reduces deployment time. You are not billed for the extra VMs, and they do not count toward your quota limits.

While overprovisioning does improve provisioning success rates, it can cause confusing behavior for an application that is not designed to handle extra VMs appearing and then disappearing. To turn overprovisioning off, ensure you have the following string in your template: `"overprovision": "false"`. More details can be found in the [Scale Set REST API documentation](/rest/api/virtualmachinescalesets/create-or-update-a-set).

You can modify a scale to expand the set of zones over which to spread VM instances. This allows you to take advantage of higher availability SLA for instances spread across availability zones or expand your scale set to take advantage of new availability zones that were not available when the scale set was created. The operation is done without incurring downtime for your existing instances.

You can modify a scale to expand the set of zones over which to spread VM instances. Expanding allows you to take advantage of higher zonal availability SLA (99.99%) versus regional availability SLA (99.95%).
