gcloud vmware private\-clouds clusters create \- create a Google Cloud VMware Engine cluster



.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP
\f5gcloud vmware private\-clouds clusters create\fR (\fICLUSTER\fR\ :\ \fB\-\-location\fR=\fILOCATION\fR\ \fB\-\-private\-cloud\fR=\fIPRIVATE_CLOUD\fR) \fB\-\-node\-type\-config\fR=[\fIcount\fR=\fICOUNT\fR],[\fIcustom\-core\-count\fR=\fICUSTOM\-CORE\-COUNT\fR],[\fItype\fR=\fITYPE\fR] [\fB\-\-async\fR] [\fIGCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG\ ...\fR]



.SH "DESCRIPTION"

Create a cluster in a VMware Engine private cloud. Successful creation of a
cluster results in a cluster in READY state. Check the progress of a cluster
using \f5gcloud vmware private\-clouds clusters list\fR.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To create a cluster called \f5my\-cluster\fR in private cloud
\f5my\-private\-cloud\fR, with 3 initial \f5standard\-72\fR nodes in zone
\f5us\-west2\-a\fR, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud vmware private\-clouds clusters create my\-cluster \e
    \-\-location=us\-west2\-a \-\-project=my\-project \e
    \-\-private\-cloud=my\-private\-cloud \e
    \-\-node\-type\-config=type=standard\-72,count=3
.RE

.RS 2m
Or:
.RE

.RS 2m
$ gcloud vmware private\-clouds clusters create my\-cluster \e
    \-\-private\-cloud=my\-private\-cloud \e
    \-\-node\-type\-config=type=standard\-72,count=3
.RE

.RS 2m
In the second example, the project and location are taken from gcloud properties core/project and compute/zone.

.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m

Cluster resource \- cluster. The arguments in this group can be used to specify
the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some attributes are not given arguments
in this group but can be set in other ways.

To set the \f5project\fR attribute:
.RS 2m
.IP "\(em" 2m
provide the argument \f5cluster\fR on the command line with a fully specified
name;
.IP "\(em" 2m
provide the argument \f5\-\-project\fR on the command line;
.IP "\(em" 2m
set the property \f5core/project\fR.
.RE
.sp

This must be specified.


.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fICLUSTER\fR

ID of the cluster or fully qualified identifier for the cluster.

To set the \f5cluster\fR attribute:
.RS 2m
.IP "\(bu" 2m
provide the argument \f5cluster\fR on the command line.
.RE
.sp

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

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-location\fR=\fILOCATION\fR

Location of the private cloud or cluster.

To set the \f5location\fR attribute:
.RS 2m
.IP "\(bu" 2m
provide the argument \f5cluster\fR on the command line with a fully specified
name;
.IP "\(bu" 2m
provide the argument \f5\-\-location\fR on the command line;
.IP "\(bu" 2m
set the property \f5compute/zone\fR.
.RE
.sp

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-private\-cloud\fR=\fIPRIVATE_CLOUD\fR

VMware Engine private cloud.

To set the \f5private\-cloud\fR attribute:
.RS 2m
.IP "\(bu" 2m
provide the argument \f5cluster\fR on the command line with a fully specified
name;
.IP "\(bu" 2m
provide the argument \f5\-\-private\-cloud\fR on the command line.

\fB\-\-node\-type\-config\fR=[\fIcount\fR=\fICOUNT\fR],[\fIcustom\-core\-count\fR=\fICUSTOM\-CORE\-COUNT\fR],[\fItype\fR=\fITYPE\fR]

Information about the type and number of nodes associated with the cluster.

type (required): canonical identifier of the node type.

count (required): number of nodes of this type in the cluster.

custom\-core\-count (optional): customized number of cores available to each
node of the type. To get a list of valid values for your node type, run the
gcloud vmware node\-types describe command and reference the
availableCustomCoreCounts field in the output.
