Azure for Students VM deallocated after subscription expiry - Need data recovery without support ticket access

Hello Uttam, sorry to hear your VM and data disk got deallocated when your Azure for Students subscription expired. Unfortunately, when a student subscription goes inactive, all compute resources (VMs, disks) are disabled and you can’t export or SSH into them until the subscription is reactivated. Here’s how you can get your disk back so you can recover your MySQL data:

1. Reactivate or replace your subscription • If you’re still a full-time student in a degree-granting institution, you can re-sign up for the Azure for Students offer and get $100 credit (no card required). After your old subscription lapses you can renew it once more (see “Azure for Students – renew” in the Alchemy doc). • If you don’t qualify for the full Azure for Students offer (for instance you’re K-12), look at the Azure for Students Starter offer instead—no credit card required. • If neither applies, you can sign up for a pay-as-you-go subscription (you’ll need a credit card to remove the spending limit). • Another no-card route: use the GitHub Student Developer Pack to verify your student status and activate a fresh Azure for Students subscription via “Sign in with GitHub” (see the GitHub sign-up section in the Alchemy doc).
2. Move or export your managed disk into the new, active subscription Once you have an active sub you can go to the Azure portal, find your deallocated managed disk under Disks, and either:
   • Use Move > Move to another subscription to shift the disk into your new subscription/resource group (see “Move Azure resources to a new resource group or subscription” link in the Alchemy doc)
   • Or select Export on the disk (this generates a short-lived SAS URI) so you can download the VHD locally
3. Spin up a recovery VM
   • In your new subscription create a lightweight Linux VM in the same region, attach the recovered disk as a data disk, then SSH in and dump out your MySQL data
