NAME
gcloud alpha alloydb backups create - create a new AlloyDB backup within a given project
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha alloydb backups create BACKUP --cluster=CLUSTER --region=REGION [--async] [--tags=[KEY=VALUE,…]] [--kms-key=KMS_KEY : --kms-keyring=KMS_KEYRING --kms-location=KMS_LOCATION --kms-project=KMS_PROJECT] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA) Create a new AlloyDB backup within a given project.
EXAMPLES
To create a new backup, run: 
gcloud alpha alloydb backups create my-backup --cluster=my-cluster --region=us-central1

To create a new cross-region backup, run: 

gcloud alpha alloydb backups create projects/my-project/locations/us-west1/backups/my-backup --cluster=my-cluster --region=us-central1
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
BACKUP
The AlloyDB backup to create. This must either be the backup ID (myBackup) or the full backup path (projects/myProject/locations/us-central1/backups/myBackup). In the first case, the project and location are assumed to be the same as the cluster being backed up. The second form can be used to create cross-region and cross-project backups.
REQUIRED FLAGS
--cluster=CLUSTER
AlloyDB cluster ID
--region=REGION
The region of the cluster to backup.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
--async
Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
--tags=[KEY=VALUE,…]
List of tags KEY=VALUE pairs to bind. Each item must be expressed as <tag-key-namespaced-name>=<tag-value-short-name>.

Example: 123/environment=production,123/costCenter=marketing

Key resource - The Cloud KMS (Key Management Service) cryptokey that will be used to protect the backup. The 'AlloyDB Service Agent' service account must hold permission 'Cloud KMS CryptoKey Encrypter/Decrypter'. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource.
--kms-key=KMS_KEY

To set the kms-key attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--kms-keyring=KMS_KEYRING
The KMS keyring of the key.

To set the kms-keyring attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --kms-keyring on the command line.
--kms-location=KMS_LOCATION
The Google Cloud location for the key.

To set the kms-location attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --kms-location on the command line.
--kms-project=KMS_PROJECT
The Google Cloud project for the key.

To set the kms-project attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line with a fully specified name;
  • provide the argument --kms-project on the command line;
  • set the property core/project.
