I'm trying some stuff on Google Cloud and I have the following issue. Some days ago I created a Deep Learning VM with Compute Engine, with 8 vCPU and 1 Tesla K80 GPU. All worked fine, but now I want to try another GPU with different memory size. So, I deleted the VM instance (from Compute Engine -> VM instances) and I also deleted the deployment from Deployment manager. Nevertheless, when I try to create a new VM, I get an error message referring to the fact that I no more resources available and in fact, in the quotas page, I still see the GPU usage to 1 (with a limit of 1, that's why I can't create a new instance). Does anyone knows what could be the problem? Do I just have to wait? Thank you everyone!
If you receive a resource error (such as ZONE_RESOURCE_POOL_EXHAUSTED or ZONE_RESOURCE_POOL_EXHAUSTED_WITH_DETAILS) when requesting new resources, it means that the zone cannot currently accommodate your request.
This error is due to the availability of Compute Engine resources in the zone, So, you could try to create the resources in another zone in the region or in another region.
You can search another available zone on this document: Available regions and zones
If possible, change the shape of the VM you are requesting. It's easier to get smaller machine types than larger ones. A change to your request, such as reducing the number of GPUs or using a custom VM with less memory or vCPUs, might allow your request to proceed.
Also, you can create reservations for Virtual Machine (VM) instances in a specific zone, using custom or predefined machine types, with or without additional GPUs or local SSDs, to ensure resources are available for your workloads when you need them.

I am trying to create a GPU instance (n1-standard-2 with 1 NVIDIA T4 GPU) on Compute Engine and I have been getting this error since yesterday:
Operation type [insert] failed with message "The zone 'projects/deep-learning-xxxx/zones/us-central1-a' does not have enough resources available to fulfill the request. Try a different zone, or try again later."
It seems that this region of Google Cloud doesn't have enough GPU resources, but I am getting the same error with other zones too, and after trying multiple times. Regular non-GPU instances are working fine though. I am trying to figure out if I'm doing something wrong or if there is a just a huge demand for GPU instances on GCP right now.
The reasons for GPU not being created on a VM in a particular region/zone can be,
1.Resource Unavailability. Check Resource availability here GPU availability across regions and zones.
2.Quota overuse can restrict the creation of GPUs. Refer Checking project quota for details.
3.Few GCP Restrictions, you can refer to the list of Restrictions here.
You can Check GPU Quota in Create VM with GPU's
Alternatively, GCP offers a feature called Reserving Compute Engine zonal resources to ensure that your project has resources for future use.
Finally, I was able to launch a preemptible GPU instance without a problem. So it really seems like Google Cloud doesn't have enough GPU resources to reserve an on-demand GPU VM at the moment.
I am trying to create a server in Location Mumbai for past 2 months , I am getting Error in all 3 a,b,c zones.
When will the servers will be available in mumbai ?
I assume that you've got an error message like:
The zone 'projects/XXX/zones/asia-south1-x' does not have enough resources available to fulfill the request. Try a different zone, or try again later.
while creating VM instances at asia-south1-a, asia-south1-b and asia-south1-c.
It's not an issue. Have a look at the documentation to find more details:
If you receive a resource error (such as ZONE_RESOURCE_POOL_EXHAUSTED
or ZONE_RESOURCE_POOL_EXHAUSTED_WITH_DETAILS) when requesting new
resources, it means that the zone cannot currently accommodate your
request. This error is due to Compute Engine resource obtainability,
and is not due to your Compute Engine quota.
The reason for this behavior is resource availability which depends from users requests and therefore are dynamic.
There are a few ways to solve it:
Choose another zone for your instance.
Wait for a while and try to start your VM instance again.
Reserve resources for your VM by following documentation to avoid such issue in future:
Create reservations for Virtual Machine (VM) instances in a specific
zone, using custom or predefined machine types, with or without
additional GPUs or local SSDs, to ensure resources are available for
your workloads when you need them. After you create a reservation, you
begin paying for the reserved resources immediately, and they remain
available for your project to use indefinitely, until the reservation
is deleted.
I had a vm instance running on Google Cloud, it's suggested me that "you should resize instance to 2CPU and 16GB RAM from 4CPU and 16GB RAM".
I pressed to Apply to set new config. Instance has stopped and stucked in resize process since an hour, neigher shows resized in gcloud instance list nor starting up.
Even try for taking snapshot of that vm's disk shows error that "it's being used in some operations"
Tried to force stop via gcloud, but no luck. In notification pop-up shows, resizing vm only.
Pls help me here.
The main reason for this issue is GCP resource availability which depends on users requests and therefore is dynamic. As result, issues like this could happen when you use cloud resources on-demand without reservation.
Let's have a look at the cause of this issue:
when you stop an instance it releases some resources like vCPU and memory;
when you start an instance it requests resources like vCPU and memory back;
when you resize your VM it's the same.
In case if there's not enough resources available in the zone you'll get an error message:
The zone 'projects/xyz-project-272905/zones/asia-south1-a' does not have enough resources available to fulfill the request. Try a different zone, or try again later..

I'm unable to start the google cloud instance:

I am trying to start an virtual machine on Google Cloud. I get an error that there isn't enough resources to fulfill my request.
I have been using Google Cloud for about one week to study and try automated trading systems through Metatrader5 on a Linux server.
I was able to use my machine using VNC server, even this morning, but suddenly all my machines (are all on same location) started to show an error when trying to start:
The zone 'projects/metatrader-227016/zones/southamerica-east1-b' does not have enough resources available to fulfill the request. Try a different zone, or try again later.
I read about moving my instance to another region, but it's not a simple instruction. What is strange is that my VM is really small and lightweight.
Unfortunately this problem appears with Google Cloud Compute once in a while. You have several options:
Wait. The resource will eventually be available.
Resize your instance to a different size. A different instance size might be available.
Change regions.
If you have paid support, open a support ticket with Google Cloud Support.
The smaller instance sizes are cheaper and therefore in higher demand.
To move an instance to a different region:
Login to the Google Cloud Console. Go to Compute Engine -> Disks.
Select your disk for the instance you plan to move.
At the top of the screen click CREATE IMAGE. Give the image a name. For Family enter anything you want but remember it.
Once the image creation completes, create a new Compute Engine VM in the region that you want. When creating the new VM, under Boot disk, click Change. You will find your image under the tab Custom images.
