How to request GPU quota increase in Google Cloud

问题:

I've been trying to request an increase in my GPU quota for Compute Engine since Google Cloud says I have 0 when I try to launch an instance. I upgraded my account, but I can't seem to figure out what I need to do to increase my quota. I've looked at many tutorials, but the cloud platform has changed ever since those tutorials were released.

Does anyone have an idea how to do this? Thanks!

Similar to what Prateek said in the comments of Tuxdude's answer, the correct way to do is the following way:

Go to the quotas IAM & Admin Quotas page.

If you look at the filtering options, you'll have "Quota type" and "Metric". Click on the "Quotas type" button and select "All quotas". This is important because since you currently have no GPU quota, the services containing the NVidia K80 GPUs will not show up. You can scroll down and find the service you want, which is a GPU in a specific zone. You don't have to, but you can now click on the Metric button, unselect all metrics, and click on the one that says NVidia K80 GPUs. Those services won't show up unless you click on "All quotas", though.

I would recommend that you go to Compute Engine -> VM Instance page and start the VM Instance creation process. On that page, you should check which GPU will be the cheapest for you (it depends on your location).

1. Go to quotas page.
2. In Metrics column, deselect all and select the one with GPU
3. Select the region for the GPU
4. Click on EDIT QUOTAS and then fill the form that pops up on the right-hand side
5. Click on Submit request

You will get a response to your email after few minutes.

The steps Jacques outlined are correct. But they may not work unless you clear your cookies or use a browser in incognito mode. Apparently this is a known issue for google cloud.what google cloud support said

You can request additional quota from the Quotas page in the Google Cloud Platform Console UI page.

Requesting additional quota

Request additional quota from the Quotas page in the Cloud Platform Console.

GO TO THE QUOTAS PAGE

You will receive a response from the Compute Engine team within 24 to 48 hours of your request.

We strongly recommend planning and requesting additional resources at least a few days in advance to ensure that there is enough time to fulfill your request.

Also, if you are using the free trial you do not have any GPU quota.

GPUs

Similar to virtual CPU quota, GPU quota refers to the total number of virtual GPUs in all VM instances in a region. Check the quotas page to ensure that you have enough GPUs available in your project and request a quota increase. Free Trial accounts do not receive GPU quota by default.

If you cannot find any item listed below by changing the filter conditions of "Quota Type" and "Metric", you can try to find it manually.

Select "All quotas" for "Quota Type", after all the items listed below, you can use ctrl + f to find "GPU" page by page, until you find the one with GPU and the location is "Global".
