Research direction

Locate the CloudFormation template used by Lab 4 and inspect the NodeType value for the Redshift resource. Compare the configured node type with the reported access error, update it to ds2.xlarge or another supported newer type, then rerun the deployment and confirm it completes successfully.

Description

When using NodeType: dc1.large I got the following error

CloudFormation Event CREATE_FAILED

You do not have access to node type dw2.large. Choose another node type (Service: AmazonRedshift; Status Code: 400; Error Code: NumberOfNodesQuotaExceeded; Request ID: d0585f06-691a-11ea-aff2-b95586675298)

Use ds2.xlarge or edit CloudFormation to use newer node type
