Cannot see or select type of disk from copy instance GUI in instance model

Google Cloud Compute Infrastructure

Hello, since yesterday it is impossible to see or select a disk type from the instance model creation page when you copy an existing model.
Do you also have this problem?

It doesn’t seem to be the expected behavior, I checked and on my GCP console it’s fine. Please check again, if you’re still experiencing this issue - check GCP status dashboard: https://status.cloud.google.com/, and if the issue persists, contact the support.

Hello, unfortunately I still have the bug, I tested on another browser and also asked a colleague to do the manipulation, but without success.
I still can’t see the disk types and don’t have access to support in my plan :confused:

Hi @gjudic_q ,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

Upon further checking, several users are also experiencing the same issue and the bug case has been raised which is already being worked on by the Engineers.

For the meantime, while they are still investigating the root cause of the said issue, they have provided a workaround wherein you can add the boot disk type by adding it manually using gcloud command.

You may use the following command lines below:

gcloud beta compute instance-templates create  <instance name> \
    --boot-disk-type pd-balanced \
  • gcloud beta compute instance-templates create : This command creates a new instance template named. Note the “beta” prefix, as this command is in beta.
  • –boot-disk-type pd-balanced : This specifies the type of persistent disk to use for the boot disk. pd-balanced is a good general purpose choice.

I hope the above information is helpful.
