- DESCRIPTION
(BETA)Create a Compute Engine Group Placement Resource Policy.- EXAMPLES
- To create a Compute Engine group placement policy with two availability domains,run:
gcloudbetacomputeresource-policiescreategroup-placementmy-resource-policy--region=REGION--availability-domain-count=2 - POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
NAME- Name of the resource policy to operate on.
- FLAGS
--availability-domain-count=AVAILABILITY_DOMAIN_COUNT- Number of availability domain in the group placement policy.
--collocation=COLLOCATION- Collocation specifies whether to place VMs inside the sameavailability domain onthe same low-latency network.
COLLOCATIONmust be oneof:collocated- Low network latency between more VMs placed on the same availability domain.
unspecified-collocation- Unspecified network latency between VMs placed on the same availability domain.This is the default behavior.
--description=DESCRIPTION- An optional, textual description for the backend.
--gpu-topology=GPU_TOPOLOGY- Specifies the shape of the GPU slice, in slice based GPU families eg. A4X.
--max-distance=MAX_DISTANCE- Specifies the number of max logical switches between VMs.
--region=REGION- Region of the resource policy to operate on. If not specified, you might beprompted to select a region (interactive mode only).
To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the
property:compute/regiongcloudconfigsetcompute/regionREGIONA list of regions can be fetched by running:
gcloudcomputeregionslistTo unset the property, run:
gcloudconfigunsetcompute/regionAlternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable
.CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION --vm-count=VM_COUNT- Number of instances targeted by the group placement policy. Google does notrecommend that you use this flag unless you use a compact policy and you wantyour policy to work only if it contains this exact number of VMs.
