Hi there,

I'm trying to make a basic instance with gpu but gives the error n1-standard-4 vm is not available in this zone. Even though I tried various zones with different gpu and different CPU specifications but always came up with this error. Can you help me here what's going wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Hello @meetyogi99 ,

First, our apologies that the Google Cloud resources you need are not currently
available. Our goal is to make sure that there are resources in all zones. We
take this responsibility very seriously and are working hard to make resources
available as soon as possible.

We recommend deploying and balancing your workload across multiple zones and
regions to reduce the likelihood of an outage and have access to multiple
resource pools when you need to expand quickly. Please review our
documentation [1] which outlines how to build resilient and scalable
architectures on Google Cloud Platform. Please note that you are currently using
Google Cloud on-demand consumption model which does not provide an assurance in
obtaining capacity. We offer a feature called reservations that provides a very
high level of assurance in obtaining capacity on the Google Cloud platform;
please see our documentation [2] for details on how to use this feature.

Again, we want to offer our sincerest apologies. We are working hard to increase
our capacity and make this an exceptionally rare event.

Hello, Thank you for contacting us. Can you please provide example name of 2-3 zones where you tried to create this ? Also did you try to reproduce this in a separate project and with a different user too ?

I tried in the zones like europe, asia(taiwan, singapore, mumbai and delhi) and america(motreal, central). But no success. Still trying in different zone still no success.

+1, I got the same error for n1-highmem-4. I was hoping to use Spot instance, but because even the Standard has shortage, so the Spot is basically not usable (being terminated insanely frequently), now I'm just hoping to get a single Standard instance...
