gcloud compute reservations create

NAME: gcloud compute reservations create - create a Compute Engine reservation
SYNOPSIS: gcloud compute reservations create RESERVATION (--vm-count=VM_COUNT (--source-instance-template=SOURCE_INSTANCE_TEMPLATE | [--machine-type=MACHINE_TYPE : --accelerator=[count=COUNT],[type=TYPE] --local-ssd=[interface=INTERFACE],[size=SIZE] --min-cpu-platform=MIN_CPU_PLATFORM]) : --require-specific-reservation --resource-policies=[KEY=VALUE,…]) [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--zone=ZONE] [--share-setting=SHARE_SETTING --share-with=SHARE_WITH,[SHARE_WITH,…]] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION: Create a Compute Engine reservation.
EXAMPLES: To create a Compute Engine reservation by specifying VM properties using an instance template, run:
gcloud compute reservations create my-reservation --vm-count=1 --source-instance-template=example-instance-template --zone=fake-zone

To create a Compute Engine reservation by directly specifying VM properties, run:
gcloud compute reservations create my-reservation --vm-count=1 --machine-type=custom-8-10240 --min-cpu-platform="Intel Haswell" --accelerator=count=2,type=nvidia-tesla-v100 --local-ssd=size=375,interface=scsi --zone=fake-zone
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS: RESERVATION

Name of the reservation to create.
REQUIRED FLAGS: Manage the SpecificSKU reservation properties.
This must be specified.

--vm-count=VM_COUNT

The number of VM instances that are allocated to this reservation. The value of this field must be an int in the range [1, 1000].
This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--require-specific-reservation

Indicates whether the reservation can be consumed by VMs with "any reservation" defined. If enabled, then only VMs that target this reservation by name using --reservation-affinity=specific can consume from this reservation.

--resource-policies=[KEY=VALUE,…]

The resource policies to include in this reservation. If you omit this flag, no resource policies are added. You can specify any string as the key, and specify the name of a resource policy as the value.

Manage the instance properties for the SpecificSKU reservation.
Exactly one of these must be specified:

--source-instance-template=SOURCE_INSTANCE_TEMPLATE

The url of the instance template that will be used to populate the fields of the reservation. Instance properties can not be defined in addition to source instance template.

Define the individual instance properties for the SpecificSKU reservation.

--machine-type=MACHINE_TYPE

The type of machine (name only) that has a fixed number of vCPUs and a fixed amount of memory. You can also specify a custom machine type by using the pattern custom-number_of_CPUs-amount_of_memory-for example, custom-32-29440.
This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--accelerator=[count=COUNT],[type=TYPE]

Manage the configuration of the type and number of accelerator cards attached.

count

The number of accelerators to attach to each instance in the reservation.

type

The specific type (e.g. nvidia-tesla-k80 for nVidia Tesla K80) of accelerator to attach to instances in the reservation. Use gcloud compute accelerator-types list to learn about all available accelerator types.

--local-ssd=[interface=INTERFACE],[size=SIZE]

Manage the size and the interface of local SSD to use. See https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd for more information.

interface

The kind of disk interface exposed to the VM for this SSD. Valid values are scsi and nvme. SCSI is the default and is supported by more guest operating systems. NVME may provide higher performance.

size

The size of the local SSD in base-2 GB.

--min-cpu-platform=MIN_CPU_PLATFORM

Optional minimum CPU platform of the reservation to create.
OPTIONAL FLAGS: --description=DESCRIPTION

An optional description of the reservation to create.

--zone=ZONE

Zone of the reservation to create. 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.

Manage the properties of a shared reservation.

--share-setting=SHARE_SETTING

Specify if this reservation is shared, and if so, the type of sharing. If you omit this flag, this value is local (not shared) by default. SHARE_SETTING must be one of: local, projects.

--share-with=SHARE_WITH,[SHARE_WITH,…]

If this reservation is shared (--share-setting is not local), provide a list of all of the specific projects that this reservation is shared with. List must contain project IDs or project 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.
