How to handle Azure Synapse "Try reducing the numbers of vcores requested or increasing your vcore quota"

Question

I ran into this issue below, when trying to run a simple pyspark script in Azure:

%%pyspark df = spark.read.load('abfss://[email protected]/userdata1.parquet', format='parquet') display(df.limit(10))

InvalidHttpRequestToLivy: Your Spark job requested 24 vcores. However, the workspace has a 12 core limit. Try reducing the numbers of vcores requested or increasing your vcore quota. HTTP status code: 400. Trace ID: 3308513f-be78-408b-981b-cd6c81eea8b0.

I am new to Azure and using the free trial now. Do you know how to reduce the numbers of vcores requested?

Thanks a lot

You can solve this problem by just closing the other notebook tabs. It will simply close that session.
