Resolution

This test was run locally but the test actually runs in the cloud.  The bzt.log snippet you provided shows a time of bzt.log:[2021-04-13 19:31:51,983 DEBUG Engine]m but the bzt.log from the test run shows [2021-04-13 23:33:34,791 DEBUG Engine]. And the region shows 'region': 'us-east-1'.  There is no mention of us-central1-a in the test run bzt.log.

If you look at the taurus.yml, in the execution section it says to run in location us-east-1, which it did.  If you go down to the modules section, default-location in the cloud is set to us-central1-a.  This is stating if you do not set a location in your configuration, it will default to location us-central1-a.
