I am using Google Cloud for development and training of deep neural networks. I've reached the limits of what I can do with CPUs and now need to create and instance with one or more GPUs.
I've followed the instructions from multiple sources. As the instance was being created I received a notification that my quota for my region (us-west1) was zero and to request an increase.
I did so and received the confirmation email within minutes. However, when I then attempted to recreate the instance I was again met with the quota increase error.
I submitted another request (same region) but heard nothing.
I tried in a different region, again requesting a quota increase, but heard nothing. I did this 6 times and -- as you might have guessed -- neither received a confirmation email nor was I able to create my instance.
I tried the hack of using Chrome in Incognito mode, but no joy.
This was an issue a few months ago, at least judging from the S/O and Google forum posts. I would think that by now it would be fixed.
Any help would be much appreciated as I'm totally stuck
