A SysOps Administrator is creating an Amazon EC2 instance and has received an InsufficientInstanceCapacity error. What is the cause of the error and how can it be corrected?
A.
AWS does not currently have enough capacity to service the request for that instance type. A different Availability Zone or instance type must be used.
B.
The account has reached its concurrent running instance limit. An EC2 limit increase request must be filed with AWS Support.
C.
The APIs that service the EC2 requests have received too many requests and capacity has been reached. The request should be attempted again in a few minutes.
D.
The Administrator did not specify the correct size of the instance to support the capacity requirements of the workload. Select a bigger instance.
When you encounter an InsufficientInstanceCapacity error, it means that there is not enough available capacity in the selected Availability Zone or with the chosen instance type to fulfill the request. This can occur if there is high demand for that particular instance type in the selected Availability Zone or if AWS is experiencing capacity constraints.
Correct Answer: A
like @sen12 said:
InsufficientInstanceCapacity error:
- AWS DOES NOT CURRENTLY HAVE ENOUGH AVAILABLE ON-DEMAND CAPACITY TO SERVICE YOUR REQUEST.
- Wait a few minutes and try again
- Request fewer instances.
- Select a different instance type.
- Try purchasing Reserved Instances instead
- Submit a new request without specifying the Availability Zone
Answer A
InsufficientInstanceCapacity error means AWS does
not have that much On-Demand capacity in the particular AZ to which
the instance is launched.
Resolution :
• Wait for few mins before requesting again.
• If requesting more than 1 requests, break down the requests. If you need 5
instances, rather than a single request of 5, request one by one.
• If urgent, submit a request for a different instance type now, which can be
resized late.
