Error creating preview S3 database. (Network Steve Forum)

Error creating preview S3 database.

SQL Databases -> New -> Data Services -> SQL Database -> Custom Create

Name: SomeDatabase
Subscription: {my subscription}
Service Tier: Standard
Performance Level: S3 (100 DTUs)
Max Size, Collation: defaults
Server: All current servers are shown in the list but the only active selection is "New SQL database server" so I select that.

When creating new SQL database server I supply new credentials for the admin account, select my region and check "Allow Windows Azure Services to access the server." then I click the check mark button to finish.

In the notifications area of my Azure Portal session I receive the following:

Could not submit the request to create database 'SomeDatabase'.

Successfully created server '{server name}'.
Could not submit the request to create database 'SomeDatabase'. The edition 'Standard' does not support the service objective '789681b8-ca10-4eb0-bdf2-e0b050601b40'.

Afterwards the new database is not listed under my SQL Databases area however, any new database I create has the server I just created available for use. If I select that new server the S3 level is not available and if I select S3 during new database creation I'm back to only being able to select a new server creation.

Hi,

If you are Service Administrator , you could add this feature in your subscription. If not, I suggest you contact Account Administrator. If you do this, but it doesn't work, I suggest you contact azure support via "click your account" and "select Contact MS support" on right-top portal page.
