NAME gcloud beta compute instance-groups unmanaged create - create a Compute Engine unmanaged instance group SYNOPSIS gcloud beta compute instance-groups unmanaged create NAME [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...] DESCRIPTION (BETA) gcloud beta compute instance-groups unmanaged create creates a new Compute Engine unmanaged instance group. For example: $ gcloud beta compute instance-groups unmanaged create \ example-instance-group --zone us-central1-a The above example creates one unmanaged instance group called 'example-instance-group' in the us-central1-a zone. POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS NAME Name of the instance group to create. FLAGS --description=DESCRIPTION Specifies a textual description for the unmanaged instance group. --zone=ZONE Zone of the instance group to create. 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.
