Restore a disabled Azure subscription - azure

We got a test subscription in Azure from our school.
Unfortunately I managed to disable my student subscription in Azure. Does anyone know how I can get it back?

From article from below link, i think you will have to contact azure support
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/billing-subscription-become-disable/
The Azure subscription is cancelled
To reactivate a subscription, you must create a support ticket. To
create a support ticket to re-enable an Azure subscription see the
article How to Create a Support Ticket for Azure Billing and
Subscription Issues.

Connect Azure DevOps to Azure subscription

I have created an Azure DevOps organization for my company and I am trying to link this to our Azure subscription. I have followed the chat bot's instructions:
Sign in to your organization (https://dev.azure.com/{yourorganization}).
Select Organization settings.​
Select Billing.​
Select Set up billing.​
Select your Azure subscription, and then select Save.​
Billing is now setup
However, no subscription information is coming up.
Note:
(1) I am using the same Microsoft account that I do for the Azure portal
(2) When I log into the portal with these credentials, I can find the DevOps organisation under 'my organisations'
(3) I have 'owner' status on the subscription
(4) When I set up a pipeline via Visual Studio, both DevOps organisation and Azure subscription were picked up.
Could anyone tell me what is going wrong and how to fix it?
I was having the same issue and stumbled upon a solution. Posting it here in case someone else finds this post as I did via Google.
Go to https://app.vsaex.visualstudio.com/
Check to see which account your organization is on - see link below
The organization I had set up was associated with my Microsoft account. I created a new organization in the Default Directory and it found the subscription in Billing.
I'm a student so it was no problem for me to start over with a new organization. I don't know how one would transfer an existing org to the correct account if needed.

Associate Office 365 AD Tenant with AZURE AD

I have an office 365 Subscription that was created when i created my Dynamics 365 (CRM) trial version.
I also have a MSDN Enterprise Azure Subscription.
I'm trying to associate the office AZURE AD with my MSDN AZURE Subscription.
I'm trying to proceed as described in the below link
https://github.com/uglide/azure-content/blob/master/articles/billing-add-office-365-tenant-to-azure-subscription.md
But the link for the old azure management portal and I'm not able to find a way to add "New Directory" with the option to choose "Existing Directory"
Awaiting your valuable inputs.

Clement
You can refer

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/billing/billing-use-existing-office-365-account-azure-subscription
to know How to Associate or add Azure Subscription to Azure Active Directory. This should do the trick if you do not have any resources in the Azure Subscription that are dependent on the current tenant for the subscription.
So, what happens is that if you have anything on the current tenant for the Azure Subscription, that would be replicated to the tenant for the O365. All of the same would need to be re-created manually.
Only the Subscription Admin of the Azure Subscription would retain the access to the subscription.
If you should have resources and the access levels might be a question for you by the re-association of the Subscription to the O365 tenant, we would suggest you create a Billing & Subscription Ticket so that Microsoft support team could personally assist you in the entire process effectively.

Azure Cloud service deploy under not owner

My customer added my microsoft profile to his subscription as owner.
I logged to Visual Studio with this profile and try to publish cloud service. But I get an error:
why so and how to fix it?
Cloud services are not available in this subscription.
This error is caused because for Azure Service Management (ASM) resources you should be co-admin in order to deploy services.
If you look on the new portal, you can see that you have permission for publishing on this subscription but one thing to keep in mind is that this “Owner” role is only valid for Azure Resource Manager resources. Even though you can manage Cloud Services on the new portal, it is an ASM resource and that’s why this role is not applicable for it. Roles configured on the new portal are RBAC and they are only valid for ARM resources.
So, you should ask for the subscription an Admin to add your user as co-admin on the old portal.
More information about co-admin and owner, please refer to this blog.
Update:
Sorry for my mistake.
For now, we should use new portal to add co-administrator, like this:
More information about add Co-administrator via new portal, please refer to this link.
User should be added as co-administrator, not only as owner. More information about it here:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/resource-manager-deployment-model/
Ability to add user as co-administrator is already added to new portal (and deprecated on old portal):

Monitoring Azure Subscription limits

I would like to receive an email if I approach limits on a resource in Azure. Is there a way to sign up for notifications of this kind?
I considered using Azure alerts. It seems you can trigger alerts from metrics or azure logs, but I couldn't figure out how to trigger action on anything related to resource limits.
It is possible. You could do it on Azure account manage Portal. When you reach the limit, you will receive e-mail.
Please refer to this link:Set up billing or credit alerts for your Microsoft Azure subscriptions
You should ensure Billing Alert Service is active.
Note: You should be Account Admin for your Azure subscription.
You could check the similar question.
No readymade Alerts on resource quotas.
Brilliant article by Tom will help you to configure such tailored alerts, using OMS Log analytics.
Get Alerts as you approach your Azure resource quotas
Azure PowerShell includes the cmdlets Get-AzureRmVMUsage and Get-AzureRmStorageUsage which will report your current usage and quotas for a range of different resource types
Also You can utilize Azure billing alert service:
Set up billing or credit alerts for your Microsoft Azure subscriptions

What is the relationship between Azure and Visual Studio Team Services

We have a Visual Studio Team Services instance that is used by the company I work for.
The company has an Azure instance. As far as I am aware there is no connection to VSTS.
When I was added to VSTS as a Visual Studio Pro level user some months ago we had to use my Microsoft Account as we couldn't use my work identity because my MSDN subscription is linked to my Microsoft Account as we could not link it to my work identity; apparently this was because we use Office365 in the office.
We now have problems adding Basic Users to VSTS. I enter the users Microsoft Account identity and I am told "No Identities Found".
I looked at VSTS Settings where I can see "This account is backed by the Default Directory Azure Active Directory."
I can also see an "Azure Subscription ID". When I follow the Subscription ID link I end up at my Microsoft Account Azure instance.
I had other users log in to VSTS and they too are seeing my Azure Subscription ID in VSTS Settings.
Why is this happening?
How do Azure instances/accounts relate to VSTS instances/accounts
Can I break the link between Azure and VSTS
You can link your VSTS account to the azure from your azure portal:
Azure - VSTS service
Then, what we do is to add the users to the Azure active directories. As far as I know, these users must be registered in Microsoft.
Once it's done, you can add the users to the VSTS.
Hope it helps you.
The Team Services uses an Azure subscription to bill purchases and can control access with Azure AD.
You can unlink your VSTS account from Azure portal. More information, you can refer to this article: Delete or recover Visual Studio Team Services account
I am an idiot.
Turns out the company VSTS was linking to the company Azure.
I became confused when clicking the Manage button in VSTS | Azure Subscription ID.
That took me to the Sign in to Azure page and displayed my login, which takes me my Azure.
It was only when we checked the Azure Subscription ID in VSTS against my Azure Subscription ID that it became apparent I was following a red herring. The ID matched the companies Azure ID. So I can use that to add users and subsequently add them to VSTS.
