It is probably the same root cause, though. Does "euca-run-instances -n 30 ..." works if you increase the value of VNET_ADDRSPERNET and do a clean restart? If yes, then it's not really a bug, although I guess euca2ools should say something meaningful about why no instance are being started.

i am not sure what the correct behavior should be in this case. Should Eucalyptus actually run instances until it runs out of private address in the security group, or should it reject the entire request (like it seems to be doing here). My guess is that it should do the later, and return that it does not have resources to complete the request (or something along that line). The Eucalyptus people would know for sure what the intended behavior is supposed to be.
