Hello,

I have the same issue with error:

2019-01-11 10:34:03,103 ERROR: Ansible playbook failed. See Ansible logs for details.
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise Exception(e)
Exception: Ansible playbook failed. See Ansible logs for details.

I try using the suggested workaround from vmuthukrishnan, but I got the same error.

Attached:

• konsole-output-2019.01.11 => console commands I executed
• nohup-2019.01.11 => printouts from opnfv-deploy -v --debug -n network_settings.yaml -d os-nosdn-nofeature-noha.yaml --virtual-default-ram 16 --virtual-cpus 8
• apex_deploy-2019.01.11

Please help us to fix this issue and be able to proceed with the Labs.

Best regards,

Hello,

Thanks a lot for your replay! I have tried to create a GCP instance with 32 vCPUs, but I got the following error:

gcloud compute instances create opnfv-instance-00 --zone=us-central1-f --custom-cpu=32 --custom-memory=52GB --min-cpu-platform="Intel Haswell" --image=aarna-opnfv-euphrates-51-pub-05012018-00 --image-project=onap-177920 --boot-disk-type "pd-standard" --boot-disk-size=300GB
ERROR: (gcloud.compute.instances.create) Could not fetch resource:
- Quota 'CPUS' exceeded. Limit: 8.0 in region us-central1.

The problem is that as a free GCP user I have limit of 8 vCPUs for all available zones - see attached screen-shoot.

Any suggestions how we can execute the Labs using the free GCP Quotas?

Best regards,
Todor
