NAME
    gcloud alpha compute target-instances create - create a target instance for
        handling traffic from a forwarding rule

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud alpha compute target-instances create NAME --instance=INSTANCE
        [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--instance-zone=INSTANCE_ZONE]
        [--network=NETWORK] [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) gcloud alpha compute target-instances create is used to create a
    target instance for handling traffic from one or more forwarding rules.
    Target instances are ideal for traffic that should be managed by a single
    source. For more information on target instances, see
    https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/protocol-forwarding/#targetinstances

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     NAME
        Name of the target instance to operate on.

REQUIRED FLAGS
     --instance=INSTANCE
        The name of the virtual machine instance that will handle the traffic.

OPTIONAL FLAGS
     --description=DESCRIPTION
        An optional, textual description of the target instance.

     --instance-zone=INSTANCE_ZONE
        Zone of the instance to operate on. If not specified, it will be set to
        the same as zone. Overrides the default compute/zone property value for
        this command invocation.

     --network=NETWORK
        Network that this target instance applies to. This is only necessary if
        the corresponding instance has multiple network interfaces. If not
        specified, the default network interface will be used.

     --zone=ZONE
        Zone of the target instance to operate on. If not specified and the
        compute/zone property isn't set, you might be prompted to select a zone
        (interactive mode only).

        To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the
        compute/zone property:

            $ gcloud config set compute/zone ZONE

        A list of zones can be fetched by running:

            $ gcloud compute zones list

        To unset the property, run:

            $ gcloud config unset compute/zone

        Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable
        CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
    These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account,
    --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format,
    --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet,
    --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

    Run $ gcloud help for details.

NOTES
    This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this
    command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct
    project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early
    access allowlist. These variants are also available:

        $ gcloud compute target-instances create

        $ gcloud beta compute target-instances create
