gcloud beta compute target-instances create

NAME
gcloud beta compute target-instances create - create a target instance for handling traffic from a forwarding rule
SYNOPSIS
gcloud beta compute target-instances create NAME --instance=INSTANCE [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--instance-zone=INSTANCE_ZONE] [--network=NETWORK] [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
(BETA) gcloud beta compute target-instances create is used to create a target instance for handling traffic from one or more forwarding rules. Target instances are ideal for traffic that should be managed by a single source. For more information on target instances, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/protocol-forwarding/#targetinstances
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
NAME
Name of the target instance to operate on.
REQUIRED FLAGS
--instance=INSTANCE
The name of the virtual machine instance that will handle the traffic.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
--description=DESCRIPTION
An optional, textual description of the target instance.
--instance-zone=INSTANCE_ZONE
Zone of the instance to operate on. If not specified, it will be set to the same as zone. Overrides the default compute/zone property value for this command invocation.
--network=NETWORK
Network that this target instance applies to. This is only necessary if the corresponding instance has multiple network interfaces. If not specified, the default network interface will be used.
--zone=ZONE
Zone of the target instance to operate on. 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.

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.
