AWS Launch Configuration error: The requested configuration is currently not supported


I have created a Launch Configuration with which I am creating a Auto Scaling Group.

When I create the Auto Scaling Group from the Launch Configuration, I get the below error:

Description:DescriptionLaunching a new EC2 instance. Status Reason: The requested configuration is currently not supported. Please check the documentation for supported configurations. Launching EC2 instance failed.

Cause:CauseAt 2017-08-15T10:54:52Z an instance was started in response to a difference between desired and actual capacity, increasing the capacity from 0 to 1.

I looked around and only found this link. However, it doesn't tell me what exactly isn't supported, so doesn't help much.

My Launch Configuration looks like this:

My Auto Scaling Group looks like this:

And:

Sorry I had to block some items out as it has the client's data.

Any input will help. As there is no information anywhere in the logs, I don't know where to go from here.

PS: I have tried changing the Instance Type but had no luck. Thought that might be the cause but apparently not.


Solution

  • Figured it out. My VPC was set to Dedicated Tenancy, which doesn't support all types of instances. The Dedicated setting was done in error actually. I deleted the VPC (you can't seem to change its Tenancy setting) and then created a new one, followed the steps for the Launch Configuration and the ASG created the instances without a problem.
