Capacity constraints in GCP us-central1 may delay or fail some task executions
minorOct 6, 2026
We are currently seeing a capacity shortage in the Google Cloud (GCP) `us-central1` region. As a result, some Deployments running in this region may experience delays when scaling up worker nodes and pods. Some tasks may remain in a queued state for longer than usual while waiting for compute capacity. In some cases, tasks that stay queued beyond their configured timeout may fail. **Recommended workaround:** Configuring automated task retries (for example, setting `retries` and a `retry_delay` on your tasks or in your DAG's `default_args`) will help tasks recover automatically once capacity becomes available. <https://www.astronomer.io/docs/learn/rerunning-dags#automatically-retry-tasks> We are working to address the issue and keep this page posted as we have more updates.
