Describe the bug

running the command e.g.

az dataprotection backup-vault create --vault-name xxx --resource-group xxx --storage-setting "[{type:'GeoRedundant',datastore-type:'VaultStore'}]" --type systemAssigned

a few times in a time windows of about 1h causes this error: ERROR: (CloudDosTimeboudLimitReached) The operation is blocked, as a security precaution, since multiple attempts were made beyond an internal limit.

Issue script & Debug output

Expected behavior

We do not expect to get this error, or get a least help/info when this limit will be reached

Environment Summary

azure-cli 2.80.0

core 2.80.0 telemetry 1.1.0

Additional context

What is this "internal limit"? Is is documented anywhere? How do we know that the limit is nearly reached?

The recommentation in the error message: "recommendedAction": [ "Please retry after few hours" ]

It's not acceptable for us to retry after "few hours"
