(All Times US/Pacific)

Incident Start: 09 December 2022 04:50

Incident End: 09 December 2022 07:55

Duration: 3 hours, 5 minutes

Affected Services and Features:

  • Artifact Registry: New repository creations
  • Google Cloud Composer: Composer environment creations
  • Google Cloud Storage: Operations that check IAM policies, especially CreateBucket
  • Google Kubernetes Engine: New cluster creation
  • Identity and Access Management: Not directly affected, only downstream services.

Regions/Zones: australia-southeast1, asia-east1, asia-east2, asia-northeast1, asia-northeast2, asia-northeast3, asia-south1, asia-south2, asia-southeast1, asia-southeast2, australia-southeast2, and asia (Google Cloud multi-region).

Description:

Google Cloud Identity and Access Management (IAM) in the Asia multi-region experienced unavailability, which impacted several downstream Google Cloud services for a period of 3 hours and 17 minutes. Customers directly using IAM were not affected. The root cause was related to a configuration change with unintended consequences, which was immediately rolled back, once identified as the problem, thereby restoring services.

Customer Impact:

Artifact Registry

  • Affected customers would not have been able to create new repositories in the Asia multi-region. Customers would have received a failure message of “Request contains an invalid argument.”

Google Cloud Composer

  • Affected customers in the Asia multi-region were not able to create Composer environments, receiving errors indicating either an issue with AppEngine or Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster creation.

Google Cloud Storage

  • Affected customers would have experienced increased error rates when creating buckets in the Asia multi-region. GKE uses Google Cloud multi-regional buckets internally, so regional GKE customers throughout Asia Pacific were affected.

Google Kubernetes Engine

  • Affected customers would have been unable to create new clusters in the affected regions.

Summary: Google Cloud Storage IAM_BACKEND_INVALID_ARGUMENT errors. INTERNAL_ERROR when performing ClusterCreation in Google Kubernetes Engine and Artifact Registry in Asia

Description: We are experiencing an issue with Artifact Registry, Google Cloud Storage, Google Kubernetes Engine.

Our engineering team continues to investigate the issue.

We will provide an update by Friday, 2022-12-09 09:30 US/Pacific with current details.

Diagnosis: Customers will be getting IAM_BACKEND_INVALID_ARGUMENT in the Asian regions for Google Cloud Storage

Customers will see INTERNAL_ERROR when performing ClusterCreation (GKE Cluster Server receives invalid_argument error when creating a GCS bucket as one step of cluster creation) for Google Kubernetes Engine

Customers will see INTERNAL_ERROR Artifact Registry

Workaround: Try using a non Asia region
