I can't create new pods in my default namespace in GKE. I checked the error on deployments and replicasets using kubectl -n default get replicaset xxxx --> The error is:

  Warning  FailedCreate  6m54s replicaset-controller  Error creating: pods "dummy-deployment-54b6f555b7-ms5sb" is forbidden: exceeded quota: gke-resource-quotas, requested: pods=1, used: pods=5k, limited: pods=5k

So I ran this command kubectl get resourcequota gke-resource-quotas -o yaml -n default to look at what's going on with gke-resource-quotas

I get this result:

apiVersion: v1

    count/ingresses.extensions: "7"
    count/jobs.batch: "4540"
    pods: 5k
    services: "20"

But I checked using kubectl -n default get pods | wc -l I do not have 5k pods running.

This is preventing me from creating new pods in my default namespace in GKE.

This seems like an error on part of GKE/K8s. Does anyone know how I can resolve this? Thanks!
