"Invalid value specified for cpu. For the specified value, maxScale may not exceed 10"

[brentfalcon]

Hi community - I'm getting a new error , which is very strange; see below. On VSC/GoogleCloudRun , how/why/where do I need to set maxScale..?  I notice, now that I do not even have a package.json file (which i see other people sometimes referring to). Everything has been fine for some time.. and now this. Hmm.

Consider running your workload in a region with greater capacity, decreasing your requested cpu-per-instance, or requesting an increase in quota for this region if you are seeing sustained usage near this limit, see https://cloud.google.com/run/quotas. Your project may gain access to further scaling by adding billing information to your account.

Don't know how to do this from commandline or console but see if you can do it from the UI. 

1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/run
2. Select your project
3. Click on your Cloud Run name
4. Click on Edit and Deploy New Revision
5. My understanding of the error is that for the value you have for number of CPUs (see image 1 below), your scaling value (see image 2 below) can't be more than 10 so adjust the following settings the way you want
6. The error also seems to imply that adding billing information might resolve your issue

Thank you. Creating a new revision on the Console allowed me access to the maxScale field which I set down to 10, a subsequent Deploy_to_cloud (from Visual Studio Code) worked and pushed my revisions to the endpoint. Thank you. 👍  The docs say that 100 is the default for maxScale, though, and I'm confused as to why I was 'suddenly' forced to crank it back to 10. Of note - I recently changed the Billing account on this cloud project to use a co-owner's Billing Account, and as far as we can tell that billing account is in good standing and ready to go (is there some setting there that affects the maxinstances?)

Unfortunately, I don't know.

It's possible that 100 is the max (all things being equal) but that the value is dependent on the value of the CPU (i.e. only certain combinations are allowed). That seems to be the thrust of the error message. It's also possible that wasn't the case previously but that the change is a recent one. Google typically document these changes in the release notes but I don't think it's common for folks to automatically read a release note - people typically only go to it when they hit a snag 🙂
