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?
- 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.
- The account has reached its concurrent running instance limit. An EC2 limit increase request must be filed with AWS Support.
- 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.
- The Administrator did not specify the correct size of the instance to support the capacity requirements of the workload. Select a bigger instance.
