Description Beth White 2021-10-27 15:43:05 UTC

The Installer is checking the wrong quota when the user selected G or VT instance types. The installer only knows about "Standard (A, C, D, H, I, M, R, T, Z) instances" and assumes that everything else falls under "X instances". The installer should instead be checking the quotas for "G and VT instances". This is a deficiency in the validation around available quota in the user's account.

There is a current workaround for the customer to either (1) have the user increase their quota for X instances or (2) have the user use an IAM user that does not have permission to check quota.
