Azure standby pools is a feature for Virtual Machine Scale Sets with Flexible Orchestration that enables faster scaling out of resources by creating a pool of pre-provisioned virtual machines ready to service your workload.

### When should I use standby pools for Virtual Machine Scale Sets?
23-
Using a standby pool with your Virtual Machine Scale Set can help improve scale out performance by completing various pre and post provisioning steps in the pool before the instances are placed into the scale set.

### What are the benefits of using Azure standby pools for Virtual Machine Scale Sets?
26-
Standby pools is a powerful feature for accelerating your time to scale out and reducing the management needed for provisioning virtual machine resources and getting them ready to service your workload. If your applications are latency sensitive or have long initialization steps, standby pools can help with reducing that time and managing the steps to make your virtual machines ready on your behalf.

### How many virtual machines can my standby pool for Virtual Machine Scale Sets have?
3535
The maximum number of virtual machines between a scale set and a standby pool is 1,000.

### Can my standby pool span multiple Virtual Machine Scale Sets?
38-
No. A standby pool resource can't span multiple scale sets. Each scale set has its own standby pool attached to it. A standby pool inherits the unique properties of the scale set such as networking, virtual machine profile, extensions, and more.

### I created a standby pool and I noticed that some virtual machines are coming up in a failed state.

Ensure you have enough quota to complete the standby pool creation. Insufficient quota results in the platform attempting to create the virtual machines in the standby pool but unable to successfully complete the create operation. Check for multiple types of quotas such as Cores, Network Interfaces, IP Addresses, etc.

### I increased my scale set instance count but the virtual machines in my standby pool were not used.

Ensure that the virtual machines in your standby pool are in the desired state prior to attempting a scale out event. For example, if using a standby pool with the virtual machine state set to deallocated, the standby pool will only give out instances that are in the deallocated state. If instances are in any other state such as creating, running, updating, etc, the scale set will default to net new virtual machine creation.
