Hey all,
I am a newbie to Kubernetes and the community as well.
Trying my hand on implementing Kubernetes the hard way on Google Cloud.
Been stuck at creating workers for days now. The command creates only one worker instead of the (3) expected. I also have gotten this error message: Error messageResource exhausted (HTTP 429): QUOTA\_EXCEEDED
Here is my code. Hope someone can guide me on how to move forward.
Hint: I’m allowed only 4 IP addresses per zone. Google support says that is sufficient for the implementation.

I would suggest to delete all the instances and retry- " Compute Instances" section in
