Good afternoon, 

I am running experiments for ARAFest2026 and am having issues creating some of the containers. We would like to run multi UE iperf tests on the AgronomyFarm-CotsBS-000. I reserved the AgronomyFarm-CotsBS-000 and three UEs (AgronomyFarm-UE-100, AgronomyFarm-UE-010, AgronomyFarm-UE-000) successfully. However when I go to create containers for these leases (following this guide, as well as the hello world) I see the error that "There are not enough hosts available". The only container i was able to successfully create was the AgronomyFarm-UE-000. Is there any other misconfiguration on our end that would cause this? Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
