Hi @shrikant Dwived ,
This error usually comes when you didn't use your PDI for some days, you just need to wait for 30 min to 1 hour to start again.
You can take reference from this link as well - " https://developer.servicenow.com/blog.do?p=/post/hibernation-and-developer-instances/ ".
Thanks and regards

When you last use your new instance and since how many times this error is coming? Like there is no other option to wait for your instance to be active or you can take reference for this below link
