When attempting to create a DNS zone in horizon for traffic.wmflabs.org. under the traffic project I get the following error:
Error: Unable to create the zone
Inspecting the request, the browser is getting a HTTP 500 error with the following content:
"403 Client Error: FORBIDDEN for url: http://cloudservices1003.wikimedia.org:9001/v2/zones/"

It's expected that zones can't be created in this manner (there's a script
that ops can run to do it properly), but there shouldn't be an HTTP 500
anywhere in the process.
One thing to check is whether there is a proxy by that name. If there is
you should be careful trying to make a zone in its place
For the record: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Horizon_FAQ#Can_I_create_a_new_DNS_domain/zone_for_my_project,_or_records_under_the_wmflabs.org_domain?
Forbidden seems a reasonable HTTP code given no other project is allowed to create registers for that domain (it belongs to other project).
before trying to do anything I've checked with a simple DNS query that traffic.wmflabs.org. is available right now:
vgutierrez$ host traffic.wmflabs.org Host traffic.wmflabs.org not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-cloud) [2019-08-05T08:43:54Z] <arturo> create traffic.wmflabs.org subdomain T229783 using the wmcs-makedomain script
Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-cloud) [2019-08-05T08:44:19Z] <arturo> created the traffic.wmflabs.org subdomain (T229783)
This should be done now:
root@cloudcontrol1004:~# wmcs-makedomain --project traffic --domain traffic.wmflabs.org
Please @Vgutierrez try now and reopen task if required.
