single Availability Zone. Because of additional load on the system, the solutions architect attempts to
add new instances to the placement group. However, the solutions architect receives an insufficient
capacity error.
What should the solutions architect do to troubleshoot this issue?
D Dedicated Hosts reserve capacity just for you, so launching new instances there avoids the general AZ capacity issue. Stopping and starting instances (B) might not help if the capacity is genuinely full.
B tbh, stopping and starting instances might free up some capacity in the placement group. If the issue is just a temporary capacity shortage, this could help since instances will be relaunched possibly on different hardware. A new placement group (C) can't be merged anyway, so that’s out. Dedicated Hosts (D) seem like a bigger change and more expensive, so definitely last resort. A spread placement group (A) isn’t relevant here since it focuses on spreading instances across hardware, not solving capacity errors within a cluster placement group.
Option A won’t help since spread groups are for fault tolerance, not capacity. Dedicated Hosts (D) could work but might be overkill. The key is to check if the AZ simply has no more capacity for that instance type.
Probably B, stopping and starting might free up capacity.
