Criar uma VM a partir de um modelo de instância


Nesta página, explicamos como usar um modelo de instância para criar uma instância de VM. Um modelo de instância é um recurso de API que define as propriedades das instâncias de VM. Defina as propriedades, como tipo de máquina, imagem do SO, configurações de disco permanente, metadados, scripts de inicialização e outras, em um modelo de instância. Depois, use o modelo para criar instâncias de VM individuais ou grupos de instâncias gerenciadas.

Por padrão, uma instância de VM criada a partir de um modelo de instância terá propriedades idênticas àquelas especificadas no modelo, com exceção do nome e da zona em que a instância residirá. No entanto, você também tem a opção de modificar determinados campos durante a criação da instância, se quiser alterar algumas propriedades definidas no modelo para casos de uso específicos.

Neste documento, pressupomos que você já tem um modelo de instância pronto para usar. Se você ainda não tem um, siga as instruções para criar um novo modelo de instância.

Antes de começar

  • Leia a documentação sobre modelo de instância.
  • Crie um modelo de instância.
  • Configure a autenticação, caso ainda não tenha feito isso. A autenticação é o processo de verificação da sua identidade para acesso a serviços e APIs do Google Cloud. Para executar códigos ou amostras de um ambiente de desenvolvimento local, autentique-se no Compute Engine selecionando uma das seguintes opções:

    Select the tab for how you plan to use the samples on this page:

    Console

    When you use the Google Cloud console to access Google Cloud services and APIs, you don't need to set up authentication.

    gcloud

    1. Install the Google Cloud CLI, then initialize it by running the following command:

      gcloud init
    2. Set a default region and zone.
    3. Go

      Para usar os exemplos Go desta página em um ambiente de desenvolvimento local, instale e inicialize o gcloud CLI e e configure o Application Default Credentials com suas credenciais de usuário.

      1. Install the Google Cloud CLI.
      2. To initialize the gcloud CLI, run the following command:

        gcloud init
      3. If you're using a local shell, then create local authentication credentials for your user account:

        gcloud auth application-default login

        You don't need to do this if you're using Cloud Shell.

      Confira mais informações em Set up authentication for a local development environment.

      Java

      REST

      Para usar as amostras da API REST nesta página em um ambiente de desenvolvimento local, use as credenciais fornecidas para gcloud CLI.

        Install the Google Cloud CLI, then initialize it by running the following command:

Crie uma instância de VM a partir de um modelo de instância.

Você pode usar um modelo de instância regional ou global para criar uma instância de VM. Para criar uma instância exatamente como descrito no modelo de instância, siga as instruções abaixo.

Console

  1. No console do Google Cloud, acesse a página Criar uma instância.

    Acesse "Criar uma instância"

  2. Clique em Nova instância de VM com base em modelo.

  3. Selecione o modelo e clique em Continuar.

  4. Especifique um nome para a VM e faça outras personalizações conforme necessário.

  5. Clique em Criar.

    Para mais detalhes sobre configuração, consulte Criar uma instância de VM a partir de uma imagem.

gcloud

Para criar uma VM com base em um modelo de instância regional ou global, use o mesmo comando gcloud compute instances create que você usaria para criar uma instância normal, mas adicione a --source-instance-template:

gcloud compute instances create VM_NAME \
    --source-instance-template INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME

Substitua:

  • VM_NAME: o nome da instância.
  • INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME: o nome do modelo de instância a ser usado. Para um modelo de instância regional, especifique o URL completo ou parcial do modelo. Um exemplo de URL completo é https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/example-project/regions/us-central1/instanceTemplates/example-regional-instance-template, e um parcial é projects/example-project/regions/us-central1/instanceTemplates/example-regional-instance-template.

Por exemplo:

gcloud compute instances create example-instance \
    --source-instance-template my-instance-template

Go

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"
	"io"

	compute "cloud.google.com/go/compute/apiv1"
	computepb "cloud.google.com/go/compute/apiv1/computepb"

)

	// instanceTemplateUrl := "global/instanceTemplates/your_instance_template"

	ctx := context.Background()
	instancesClient, err := compute.NewInstancesRESTClient(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		return fmt.Errorf("NewInstancesRESTClient: %w", err)
	}
	defer instancesClient.Close()

	req := &computepb.InsertInstanceRequest{
		Project: projectID,
		Zone:    zone,
		InstanceResource: &computepb.Instance{
			Name: proto.String(instanceName),
		},
		SourceInstanceTemplate: &instanceTemplateUrl,
	}

	op, err := instancesClient.Insert(ctx, req)
	if err != nil {
		return fmt.Errorf("unable to create instance: %w", err)
	}

	if err = op.Wait(ctx); err != nil {
		return fmt.Errorf("unable to wait for the operation: %w", err)
	}

	fmt.Fprintf(w, "Instance created\n")

	return nil
}

REST

Para criar uma VM de um modelo de instância regional ou global, faça uma solicitação normal para criar uma instância, mas inclua o sourceInstanceTemplate seguido de um caminho qualificado para um modelo de instância.

POST https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/
PROJECT_ID/zones/ZONE/
instances?sourceInstanceTemplate=INSTANCE_TEMPLATE_NAME

No corpo da solicitação, forneça um name para a instância de VM:

{ "name": "example-instance" }

Por exemplo, no snippet a seguir, é incluído um caminho totalmente qualificado para o modelo: https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/myproject/global/instanceTemplates/example-instance-template.

Como criar uma instância de VM a partir de um modelo de instância com modificações

Por padrão, uma instância de VM iniciada a partir de um modelo de instância será exatamente como descrito no modelo, com exceção do nome e da zona.

Se você quiser criar uma instância baseada em um modelo, mas com algumas alterações, use o comportamento de modificação. Para tanto, informe os atributos para modificar o modelo de instância existente durante a criação da instância.

gcloud

Usando a CLI gcloud, faça uma solicitação para criar uma instância com a sinalização --source-instance-template e substituir qualquer propriedade que você queira com a sinalização gcloud adequada. Para uma lista de sinalizações aplicáveis, consulte a referência gcloud.

Por exemplo, forneça as sinalizações a seguir para modificar o tipo de máquina, os metadados, o sistema operacional, o disco de inicialização do Persistent Disk e um disco secundário de um modelo de instância:

gcloud compute instances create example-instance \

REST

Na API, use o parâmetro de consulta sourceInstanceTemplate e forneça os campos que você quer substituir no corpo da solicitação ao construir uma solicitação normal para criar uma instância.

O comportamento de modificação na API segue as regras de patch de mesclagem JSON descritas em RFC 7396 (em inglês).

Especificamente:

  • Se você modificar um campo básico, o campo básico correspondente no modelo de instância será substituído pelo valor de campo básico na solicitação. Os campos básicos incluem machineType, sourceImage, name e assim por diante.
  • Se você modificar um campo repetido, todos os valores repetidos dessa propriedade serão substituídos pelos valores correspondentes fornecidos na solicitação. Geralmente, campos repetidos são propriedades do tipo list. Por exemplo, disks e networkInterfaces são campos repetidos.
  • Se você modificar um nested object, o objeto no modelo de instância será mesclado com a especificação de objeto correspondente na solicitação. Observe que, se um objeto aninhado residir dentro de um campo repetido, esse campo será tratado segundo as regras para campos repetidos. Os rótulos são uma exceção a essa regra e são tratados como um campo repetido, mesmo sendo do tipo object.

Por exemplo, imagine que você tem um modelo de instância com dois discos que não sejam de inicialização, mas quer substituir um deles. Você precisa informar toda a especificação disks na sua solicitação, incluindo os discos que quer manter.

O URL dessa solicitação:

POST https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/myproject/zones/us-central1-a/instances?
sourceInstanceTemplate=https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/myproject/global/instanceTemplates/example-instance-template

O corpo da solicitação:

    {
      "disks": [
        {
          # Since you are overriding the repeated disk property, you must
          # specify a boot disk in the request, even if it is already
