NAME
gcloud beta compute resource-policies create group-placement - create a Compute Engine group placement resource policy
SYNOPSIS
gcloud beta compute resource-policies create group-placementNAME[--availability-domain-count=AVAILABILITY_DOMAIN_COUNT][--collocation=COLLOCATION][--description=DESCRIPTION][--gpu-topology=GPU_TOPOLOGY][--max-distance=MAX_DISTANCE][--region=REGION][--vm-count=VM_COUNT][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
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.COLLOCATION must 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 thecompute/region property:

gcloudconfigsetcompute/regionREGION

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

gcloudcomputeregionslist

To unset the property, run:

gcloudconfigunsetcompute/region

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variableCLOUDSDK_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.
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.
