Virtual Machine Creation Error Troubleshooting

1. Overview

This guide explains how to identify and resolve common errors that may occur while creating a Virtual Machine (VM) on the Cloud platform.

2. Common Virtual Machine Creation Errors

2.1 No Available Public IPs

Cause

The selected region has no available public IP addresses.

Resolution

  • Select a different region (for example, create the VM in West-3 instead of West-2).
  • If a public IP is not required, create the VM using only a private IP address.

2.2 Insufficient Quota

Cause

The project has reached its allocated quota for resources such as CPU, RAM, storage volumes, or GPU.

Resolution

  • Delete any unused Virtual Machines or storage volumes.
  • If additional resources are required, request a quota increase from Cloud Support.

2.3 Network or Subnet Not Found

Cause

The selected network is incorrect, or the required network or subnet has been deleted.

Resolution

  • Select the correct network and subnet during Virtual Machine creation.
  • If the required network or subnet does not exist, create a new private network and subnet.

2.4 Volume Creation Failed

Cause

The storage backend encountered an error, or there is insufficient storage capacity.

Resolution

  • Try creating the Virtual Machine again.
  • Verify that the storage quota has not been exceeded.
  • Create the volume manually and attach it to the Virtual Machine.

3. When to Contact Support

Contact Cloud Support if:

  • The same error occurs in multiple regions.
  • No public IP addresses are available in the selected region.
  • There are issues related to images or flavors.

Provide the following information when contacting support:

  • Screenshot of the error message.
  • Region name.
  • Virtual Machine flavor.
  • Operating system image.
  • Time when the error occurred.
