gcloud migration vms image-imports - imports images to Google Compute
|
|
Engine from Google Cloud Storage
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
gcloud migration vms image-imports COMMAND [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
gcloud alpha migration vms image-imports provides a more robust and better
|
|
supported method for importing images to Google Compute Engine. Other
|
|
image-related operations (for example, list) can be done using gcloud
|
|
compute images, as usual.
|
|
|
|
The commands use VM Migartion API which supports importing of an image from
|
|
a Google Cloud Storage file (gs://...) to a target project. VM Migration
|
|
API must be enabled in your project.
|
|
|
|
gcloud alpha migration vms image-imports create creates an Image Import
|
|
resource with a nested Image Import Job resource. The Image Import Job
|
|
resource tracks the image import progress. After the Image Import Job
|
|
completes, successfully or otherwise, there's no further use for the Image
|
|
Import resource.
|
|
|
|
The image is imported to a Google Cloud Project, desginated by the Target
|
|
Project resource. To get a list of Target Projects, run the gcloud alpha
|
|
migration vms target-projects list command. Use the Google Cloud console to
|
|
add target project resources. For information on adding target projects,
|
|
see
|
|
https://cloud.google.com/migrate/virtual-machines/docs/5.0/how-to/target-project.
|
|
|
|
A project can support a maximum of 1000 Image Import resources per project.
|
|
Hence it's recommended to delete an Image Import resource after the Image
|
|
Import Job is complete to avoid reaching the Image Import resources limit.
|
|
Deletion of Image Import resource does not affect the imported image.
|
|
|
|
