It seems like this method cannot find appropriate AKIs:
https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh/blob/master/bosh_aws_cpi/lib/cloud/aws/aki_picker.rb#L48-L59

I just requested account from AWS to access China region and try to
reproduce the problem.

There are two issues - the second is that bosh-bootstrap uses a project
"cyoi" (choose your own infrastructure) and underneath it uses "fog" - its
quite possible that either or both do not yet support China (its harder to
get accounts to do testing).

The former is failing inside AWS SDK for Ruby.

BOSH calls into this library here:
https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh/blob/develop/bosh_aws_cpi/lib/cloud/aws/aki_picker.rb#L25

We are using aws-sdk (= 1.60.2)
https://github.com/cloudfoundry/bosh/blob/114b3cf107672cfebf444fe7db4703dd804c72cc/Gemfile.lock#L19

The latest version is 2.0.42
https://rubygems.org/gems/aws-sdk/versions/2.0.42

So perhaps China support was added more recently and we need to bump to
newer aws-sdk version.

Try bumping this version in the Gemfile of bosh and using that.

Avoid bosh-bootstrap until you've at least confimed you can get underlying
bosh_cli to work.

I have tried full stemcell
bosh-stemcell-2972-aws-xen-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent.tgz, but failed, error
"create stemcell failed: unable to find AKI:" was thrown (please find
details in my first email). And when I tried to "bosh-bootstrap deploy"
command, I got `validate_aws_region': Unknown region: "cn-north-1"
(ArgumentError). Seems cn-north-1 is not supported by bosh aws plugin. Any
suggestions on this issue? Thanks!

The issue is that there appear to not be any light stemcells in your
region, there is another recent question on the list to this effect. In
order to make progress you might want to build your own stemcell to use for
now or try to find and download a full aws hvm stemcell image to upload.

Hello,

I tried to deploy micro bosh in AWS region cn-north-1 in several ways,
but all failed. Any suggestions on how to deploy micro bosh in AWS region
cn-north-1? Thanks!

I created a EC2 instance (ubuntu) in the cn-north-1 region with an
public ip, ssh'd into it and installed bosh-cli, bosh_cli_plugin_micro and
bosh_cli_plugin_aws. After that I downloaded stemcell
bosh-stemcell-2972-aws-xen-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent.tgz, and tried " bosh
micro deploy ./bosh-stemcell-2972-aws-xen-ubuntu-trusty-go_agent.tgz" which
resulted in "create stemcell failed: getaddrinfo: Name or service not
known:"

I checked the failed URL, it's "ec2.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com" which is
not accessable. I updated the http.rb and changed the url to "
ec2.cn-north-1.amazonaws.com.cn" and escape the ssl validation and
tried again, another error was thrown:
