Hello,
I have a Free Tier GCP account and would like to export a .vmdk image of my Debian 12 boot disk. The process requires Cloud Build to be enabled.
According to https://cloud.google.com/free/docs/free-cloud-features#free-tier-usage-limits, I should have 120 min of Cloud Build time per day. However, I get the following error instead:
ERROR: (gcloud.compute.images.export) FAILED_PRECONDITION: failed precondition: due to quota restrictions, cannot run builds in this region. Please contact support.
My zone is 'us-west1-a' and my region is 'us-west1'. Here is my incantation (the first 2 commands succeed):
gcloud storage buckets create gs://foosystems-bucket --project=foosystems-server --location=us-west1 --uniform-bucket-level-access
gcloud compute images create foosystems-vm-image --source-disk=web-server --source-disk-zone=us-west1-a
gcloud compute images export --destination-uri=gs://foosystems-bucket/foosystems-vm-image.vmdk --image=foosystems-vm-image --export-format=vmdk
Thank you. I can also post the output of gcloud asset search-all-iam-policies if that would be helpful.
