Quota exceeded

quota_exceeded

The account has used all it may hold of this resource.

What this means​

The request would take the account over a limit of its plan, such as the number of spherelets it may run.

How to fix it​

Free some of the resource (stop or scale down a service you no longer need), or raise the limit: an owner or admin can add capacity in the console under Settings → Accounts → your account → Spherelets.

Retry behavior​

Retry after capacity has been freed or added.

How it appears in the response​

ComputeSphere returns errors as RFC 7807 Problem Details. The type field is the docs URL for this page — switch on code in your client.
