Google Cloud Cloning Disk Issue


I am having an issue while cloning a disk in Google cloud. I already have a disk (and a VM created), I need another disk/VM similar to it with same setup done.

Creating disk "vm2" failed. Error: Invalid value for field 'resource.sourceDisk': 'projects/watchful-scope-130208/zones/us-central1-a/disks/vm1'. Regional disk cannot be created from a source zonal disk created from an image.

enter image description here Can someone please help me with this?


Solution

  • Creating disk in the same zone (create in single zone if your base image is in single zone) as the source disk. Thank you @John Hanley
