NAME
    gcloud alpha vmware hcx activationkeys create - create a Google Cloud
        VMware HCX activation key

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud alpha vmware hcx activationkeys create
        (HCX_ACTIVATION_KEY
          : --location=LOCATION --private-cloud=PRIVATE_CLOUD)
        [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) Create a HCX activation key in a VMware Engine private cloud.
    Successful creation of a HCX activation key results in a HCX activation key
    in AVAILABLE state. Check the progress of a HCX activation key using gcloud
    alpha vmware hcx activationkeys list.

EXAMPLES
    To create a HCX activation key called key1 in private cloud
    my-private-cloud in zone us-west2-a, run:

        $ gcloud alpha vmware hcx activationkeys create key1 \
            --location=us-west2-a --project=my-project \
            --private-cloud=my-private-cloud

        Or:

        $ gcloud alpha vmware hcx activationkeys create my-cluster \
            --private-cloud=my-private-cloud

    In the second example, the project and location are taken from gcloud
    properties core/project and compute/zone.
