An error occurred (InsufficientInstanceCapacity) when calling the RunInstances operation (reached max retries: 2): We currently do not have sufficient m6id.xlarge capacity in the Availability Zone you requested (us-east-2a). Our system will be working on provisioning additional capacity. You can currently get m6id.xlarge capacity by not specifying an Availability Zone in your request or choosing us-east-2b, us-east-2c.: exit status 254 [owner=test-eng]

Jira issue: CRDB-57287

The report provides an AWS RunInstances failure from roachtest cluster creation and links the roachtest README, but it does not identify a target change. Start with pkg/cmd/roachtest/README.md and the cluster-creation path, then compare the repeated failures listed in the issue. Done requires an agreed fix and a successful roachtest run without this capacity failure.
