Can't create VMSS in South Africa West

This is autogenerated. Please review and update as needed.

Describe the bug

VMSS and VNets are indicated as generally available:

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/global-infrastructure/services/?products=virtual-machine-scale-sets,virtual-network

However any attempt to create a vnet or VMSS with location = southafricawest fails. I am also not able to select South Africa West in the azure portal.

Command Name az vmss create

Errors:
