Kubernetes cluster with 200$ free account fails to deploy, I need to increase quota limits

Question

hi,

I am trying to create a kubernetes cluster but I have quota limit on total regional cores. I need this to finish my course.

When attempting to increase the quota there is an error on the website an asks me to submit a ticket. When opening a ticket it throws another error:
Oops, something went wrong...

Unfortunately we encountered an error. We've been already notified about this.

I need help resolving this.

Hello @Goncalo,

Since you have only 4 cores , if you want to complete your lab - please follow below steps:

-> While creating the nodepool try to use a VM size which takes only 2 cores (ds2v2, ds2v3 etc) and choose only 1 or 2 nodes.

(Step2->Nodepools-> click on choose size -> select any of ds2v2 or ds2v3 -> Choose scale method manual -> Choose Min node count as 1)

-> If you are still facing the issue , the only option would be to submit the quota increase request

Regards,

Shiva.
