NAME gcloud alpha vmware clusters create - create a Google Cloud VMware Engine cluster SYNOPSIS gcloud alpha vmware clusters create (CLUSTER : --location=LOCATION --private-cloud=PRIVATE_CLOUD) --node-count=NODE_COUNT --node-type=NODE_TYPE [--labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...] DESCRIPTION (ALPHA) Create a cluster in a VMware Engine private cloud. Successful creation of a cluster results in a cluster in READY state. Check the progress of a cluster using gcloud alpha vmware clusters list. EXAMPLES To create a cluster called my-cluster in private cloud my-private-cloud, with 3 initial standard-72 nodes in zone us-west2-a, run: $ gcloud alpha vmware clusters create my-cluster \ --location=us-west2-a --project=my-project \ --private-cloud=my-private-cloud --node-type=standard-72 \ --node-count=3 Or: $ gcloud alpha vmware clusters create my-cluster \ --private-cloud=my-private-cloud --node-type=standard-72 \ --node-count=3 In the second example, the project and location are taken from gcloud properties core/project and compute/zone. POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS Cluster resource - cluster. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways. To set the project attribute: ◆ provide the argument cluster on the command line with a fully specified name; ◆ set the property core/project; ◆ provide the argument --project on the command line. This must be specified. CLUSTER ID of the cluster or fully qualified identifier for the cluster. To set the cluster attribute: ▸ provide the argument cluster on the command line. This positional must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified. --location=LOCATION Zone of the private cloud or cluster. To set the location attribute: ▸ provide the argument cluster on the command line with a fully specified name; ▸ provide the argument --location on the command line; ▸ set the property compute/zone. --private-cloud=PRIVATE_CLOUD VMware Engine private cloud. To set the private-cloud attribute: ▸ provide the argument cluster on the command line with a fully specified name; ▸ provide the argument --private-cloud on the command line. REQUIRED FLAGS --node-count=NODE_COUNT Nodes count for cluster Node type resource - node_type. This represents a Cloud resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other ways. To set the project attribute: ◆ provide the argument --node-type on the command line with a fully specified name; ◆ set the property core/project; ◆ provide the argument --project on the command line. To set the location attribute: ◆ provide the argument --node-type on the command line with a fully specified name; ◆ set the property compute/zone. This must be specified. --node-type=NODE_TYPE ID of the node type or fully qualified identifier for the node type. To set the node-type attribute: ▸ provide the argument --node-type on the command line. OPTIONAL FLAGS --labels=[KEY=VALUE,...] List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to add. Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers. 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.
