time a local ssd vm should wait while recovery of the local ssd state is attempted its value should be in between 0 and 168 hours with hour granularity and the default value being 1 hour machine type machine_type specifies the machine type used for the instances to get a list of available machine types run gcloud compute machine types list if unspecified the default type is n1 standard 1 maintenance policy maintenance_policy specifies the behavior of the vms when their host machines undergo maintenance the default is migrate for more information see https cloud google com compute docs instances host maintenance options maintenance_policy must be one of migrate the instances should be migrated to a new host this will temporarily impact the performance of instances during a migration event terminate the instances should be terminated max run duration max_run_duration limits how long this vm instance can run specified as a duration relative to the last time when the vm began running format the duration max_run_duration as the number of days hours minutes and seconds followed by d h m and s respectively for example specify 30m for a duration of 30 minutes or specify 1d2h3m4s for a duration of 1 day 2 hours 3 minutes and 4 seconds alternatively to specify a timestamp use termination time instead if neither max run duration nor termination time is specified default the vm instance runs until prompted by a user action or system event if either is specified the vm instance is scheduled to be automatically terminated at the vm s termination timestamp terminationtimestamp using the action specified by instance termination action note the terminationtimestamp is removed whenever the vm is stopped or suspended and redefined whenever the vm is rerun for max run duration specifically the terminationtimestamp is the sum of max_run_duration and the time when the vm last entered the running state which changes whenever the vm is rerun metadata key value key value metadata to be made available to the guest operating system running on the instances each metadata entry is a key value pair separated by an equals sign each metadata key must be unique and have a max of 128 bytes in length each value must have a max of 256 kb in length multiple arguments can be passed to this flag e g metadata key 1 value 1 key 2 value 2 key 3 value 3 the combined total size for all metadata entries is 512 kb in images that have compute engine tools installed on them such as the official images the following metadata keys have special meanings startup script specifies a script that will be executed by the instances once they start running for convenience metadata from file can be used to pull the value from a file startup script url same as startup script except that the script contents are pulled from a publicly accessible location on the web for startup scripts on windows instances the following metadata keys have special meanings windows startup script url windows startup script cmd windows startup script bat windows startup script ps1 sysprep specialize script url sysprep specialize script cmd sysprep specialize script bat and sysprep specialize script ps1 for more information see running startup scripts metadata from file key local_file_path same as metadata except that the value for the entry will be read from a local file this is useful for values that are too large such as startup script contents min cpu platform platform when specified the vm will be scheduled on host with specified cpu architecture or a newer one to list available cpu platforms in given zone run gcloud compute zones describe zone format value availablecpuplatforms default setting is automatic cpu platform selection is available only in

network network tier subnet private network ip stack type ipv6 network tier internal ipv6 address internal ipv6 prefix length ipv6 address ipv6 prefix length external ipv6 address external ipv6 prefix length ipv6 public ptr domain this flag can be repeated to specify multiple network interfaces the following keys are allowed address assigns the given external address to the instance that is created specifying an empty string will assign an ephemeral ip mutually exclusive with no address if neither key is present the instance will get an ephemeral ip network specifies the network that the interface will be part of if subnet is also specified it must be subnetwork of this network if neither is specified this defaults to the default network no address if specified the interface will have no external ip mutually exclusive with address if neither key is present the instance will get an ephemeral ip network tier specifies the network tier of the interface network_tier must be one of premium standard the default value is premium private network ip assigns the given rfc1918 ip address to the interface subnet specifies the subnet that the interface will be part of if network key is also specified this must be a subnetwork of the specified network nic type specifies the network interface controller nic type for the interface nic_type must be one of gvnic virtio_net queue count specifies the networking queue count for this interface both rx and tx queues will be set to this number if it s not specified a default queue count will be assigned see https cloud google com compute docs network bandwidth rx tx for more details stack type specifies whether ipv6 is enabled on the interface stack_type must be one of ipv4_only ipv4_ipv6 ipv6_only the default value is ipv4_only ipv6 network tier specifies the ipv6 network tier that will be used to configure the instance network interface ipv6 access config ipv6_network_tier must be premium currently only one value is supported internal ipv6 address assigns the given internal ipv6 address or range to the instance that is created the address must be the first ip address in the range or from a 96 ip address range this option can be used only when creating a single instance internal ipv6 prefix length optional field that indicates the prefix length of the internal ipv6 address range it should be used together with internal ipv6 address only 96 ip address range is supported and the default value is 96 if not set either the prefix length from internal ipv6 address will be used or the default value of 96 will be assigned external ipv6 address assigns the given external ipv6 address to the instance that is created the address must be the first ip address in the range this option can be used only when creating a single instance external ipv6 prefix length the prefix length of the external ipv6 address range this field should be used together with external ipv6 address only the 96 ip address range is supported and the default value is 96 ipv6 public ptr domain assigns a custom ptr domain for the external ipv6 in the ipv6 access configuration of instance if its value is not specified the default ptr record will be used this option can only be specified for the default network interface nic0 aliases specifies the ip alias ranges to allocate for this interface if there are multiple ip alias ranges they are separated by semicolons for example aliases 10 128 1 0 24 range1 32 each ip alias range consists of a range name and an ip range separated by a colon or just the ip range the range name is the name of the range within the network interface s subnet from which to allocate an ip alias range if unspecified it defaults to the primary ip range of the subnet the ip range can be a cidr range e g 192 168 100 0 24 a single ip address e g 192 168 100 1 or a netmask in cidr format e g 24 if the ip range is specified by cidr range or single ip address it must belong to the cidr range specified by the range name on the subnet if the ip range is specified by netmask the ip allocator will pick an available range with the specified netmask and allocate it to this network interface network attachment specifies the network attachment that this interface should connect to mutually exclusive with network and subnet flags service class id the regional service class id for the producer service associated with this network interface can only be used with network_attachment it is not possible to use on its own however network_attachment can be used without service_class_id vlan vlan id of a dynamic network interface must be an integer in the range from 2 to 255 inclusively igmp query determines if the compute engine instance can receive and respond to igmp query packets on the specified network interface igmp_query must be one of igmp_query_v2 igmp_query_disabled it is disabled by default network performance configs property value configures network performance settings for the

access type for the vm private_ipv6_google_access_type must be one of enable bidirectional access enable outbound vm access inherit subnetwork private network ip private_network_ip specifies the rfc1918 ip to assign to the instance the ip should be in the subnet or legacy network ip range provisioning model provisioning_model specifies the provisioning model for your vm instances this choice affects the price availability and how long your vm instances can run provisioning_model must be one of flex_start the vm instance is provisioned using the flex start provisioning model and has a limited runtime reservation_bound the vm instances run for the entire duration of their associated reservation you can only specify this provisioning model if you want your vm instances to consume a specific reservation with either a calendar reservation mode or a dense deployment type spot compute engine may stop a spot vm instance whenever it needs capacity because spot vm instances don t have a guaranteed runtime they come at a discounted price standard the default option the standard provisioning model gives you full control over your vm instances runtime request valid for duration request_valid_for_duration when you create an instance by using the flex_start provisioning model you can specify the duration to wait for available resources if the instance creation request is still pending after this duration then the request fails you specify a duration by using numbers followed by h m and s for hours minutes and seconds respectively for example specify 30m for a duration of 30 minutes or 1h2m3s for 1 hour 2 minutes and 3 seconds longer durations give you higher chances that your instance creation request succeeds when resources are in high demand require csek key create deprecated refuse to create resources not protected by a user managed key in the key file when csek key file is given this behavior is enabled by default to prevent incorrect gcloud invocations from accidentally creating resources with no user managed key disabling the check allows creation of some resources without a matching customer supplied encryption key in the supplied csek key file see https cloud google com compute docs disks customer supplied encryption for more details the require csek key create flag is deprecated enabled by default use no require csek key create to disable resource manager tags key value specifies a list of resource manager tags to apply to the instance resource policies resource_policy a list of resource policy names to be added to the instance the policies must exist in the same region as the instance restart on failure the instances will be restarted if they are terminated by compute engine this does not affect terminations performed by the user enabled by default use no restart on failure to disable shielded integrity monitoring enables monitoring and attestation of the boot integrity of the instance the attestation is performed against the integrity policy baseline this baseline is initially derived from the implicitly trusted boot image when the instance is created this baseline can be updated by using gcloud compute instances
