This article discusses how to resolve a "quota exceeded" error that occurs when you try to deploy multiple container groups in different regions in Microsoft Azure Container Instances.
Symptoms
You receive the following error message:
Message: Resource type 'Microsoft.ContainerInstance/containerGroups' container group quota 'ContainerGroups' exceeded in region '<region>'. Limit: '0', Usage: '0' Requested: '1'.
ERROR: (ServiceUnavailable) Resource type 'Microsoft.ContainerInstance/containerGroups' container group quota 'ContainerGroups' exceeded in region '<region>'.
Limit: '0',
Usage: '0'
Requested: '1'.
Code: ServiceUnavailable
However, you confirm there's enough quota settings for this deployment.
Cause
You try to simultaneously deploy multiple container groups in different regions that use the same name. This action triggers the fraud detection logic in Container Instances. Automation scripts that are run in the cloud might be trying to do this multi-deployment operation. You can identify this scenario by the 0 limit and usage fields in the error message.
Solution
To avoid this error, issue requests for container group deployments one at a time.
