<p>I've gone through the Azure Cats&amp;Dogs tutorial described <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/tutorial-kubernetes-prepare-app" rel="noreferrer">here</a> and I am getting an error in the final step where the apps are launched in AKS. Kubernetes is reporting that I have insufficent pods but I'm not sure why this would be. I've run through this same tutorial a few weeks ago without problems.</p>

<p>The only thing I can think of that has changed is that I have other (larger) clusters running now as well, and the main reason I went through this Cats&amp;Dogs tutorial again was because I hit this same problem today with my other clusters. Is this a resources limit issue with my Azure account?</p>

<p><strong>Update 10-20/3:15 PST:</strong> Notice how these three clusters all show that they use the same nodepool, even though they were created in different resource groups. Also note how the "get-credentials" call for gem2-cluster reports an error. I did have a cluster earlier called gem2-cluster which I deleted and recreated using the same name (in fact I deleted the wole resource group). What's the correct process for doing this?</p>

<p>What is your max-pods set to? This is a normal error when you've reached the limit of pods per node.</p>

<p>You can check your current maximum number of pods per node with:</p>

<pre><code>$ kubectl get nodes -o yaml | grep pods
  pods: "30"
  pods: "30"
</code></pre>

<p>And your current with:</p>

<pre><code>$ kubectl get pods --all-namespaces | grep Running | wc -l
  18
</code></pre>
