Since a few days I get "capacity-oversubscribed" on aws and no matter what I'm doing, I do not get no new spot instances:

capacity-oversubscribed: Your Spot request with price 1.39 was not fulfilled as the number of Spot requests with equal or higher prices exceeds the available capacity in this pool.

The thing is that I already increased my maximum price to insane high prices like 2$ and above just to make it work, but I still get this error.

I understand that the prices are going crazy at the moment - does this simply mean that aws does not have resources available?

The problem was that aws simply does not have capacity atm for the given availability zone.
