Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm frustrated when using the gcloud-compute.com website to find compatible VM and disk types for GCP, as some machine types like
c3-highmem-8
are listed without clear indications that they don't support Hyperdisk Balanced inus-west1-a
. This can lead to confusion and deployment issues when trying to use these machine types with certain disk types.From terraform apply:
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see gcloud-compute.com site reflect machine type compatibility with Hyperdisk, including showing which machine types support Hyperdisk Balanced in specific zones (e.g.,
us-west1-a
). A filter or tag indicating disk compatibility would greatly enhance usability and prevent issues when selecting VM and disk combinations.Describe alternatives you've considered
I’ve cross-referenced GCP documentation and tried to manually verify compatible machine types, but this is time-consuming and prone to errors. Additionally, using alternative machine types or switching zones adds unnecessary complexity to infrastructure planning.
Additional context
Providing clearer disk compatibility information (like Hyperdisk support) alongside machine types in the UI would simplify the VM selection process. It would also help avoid errors when provisioning instances and disks that are incompatible.
