- DESCRIPTION
-
(ALPHA)Create a Google Compute Engine accelerator pod controller. - EXAMPLES
-
To create an accelerator pod controller named
my-apcin zoneus-east5-stagingawith target reservation sub-block:gcloud alpha compute accelerator-pod-controllers create my-apc --zone=us-east5-staginga --target=projects/my-project/zones/us-east5-staginga/reservations/my-res/reservationBlocks/my-block/reservationSubBlocks/my-subblockTo create an accelerator pod controller with a switch monitoring management interface:
gcloud alpha compute accelerator-pod-controllers create my-apc --zone=us-east5-staginga --target=projects/my-project/zones/us-east5-staginga/reservations/my-res/reservationBlocks/my-block/reservationSubBlocks/my-subblock --management-interface=key=gnmi-nvswitch-0,type=TYPE_NVLINK_SWITCH_MONITORING,network=projects/my-project/global/networks/my-net,subnetwork=projects/my-project/regions/us-east5/subnetworks/my-sub,ipv4-address=10.0.0.1 - POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
-
Accelerator pod controller resource - The name of the accelerator pod controller
to create. 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
projectattribute:-
provide the argument
accelerator_pod_controlleron the command line with a fully specified name; -
provide the argument
--projecton the command line; -
set the property
core/project.
This must be specified.
ACCELERATOR_POD_CONTROLLER-
ID of the accelerator pod controller or fully qualified identifier for the
accelerator pod controller.
To set the
accelerator_pod_controllerattribute:-
provide the argument
accelerator_pod_controlleron the command line.
This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.
-
provide the argument
--zone=ZONE-
The name of the Google Compute Engine zone.
To set the
zoneattribute:-
provide the argument
accelerator_pod_controlleron the command line with a fully specified name; -
provide the argument
--zoneon the command line; -
set the property
compute/zone.
-
provide the argument
-
provide the argument
-
Accelerator pod controller resource - The name of the accelerator pod controller
to create. 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.
- REQUIRED FLAGS
-
--target=TARGET- The target accelerator domain this controller manages (e.g. a Reservation Sub-block URI).
- OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
--async- Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
--description=DESCRIPTION- An optional description of this resource.
--endpoint-mode=ENDPOINT_MODE-
Specifies endpoint mode for a given command. Regional endpoints provide enhanced
data residency and reliability by ensuring your request is handled entirely
within the specified Google Cloud region. This differs from global endpoints,
which may process parts of the request outside the target region. Overrides the
default
regional/endpoint_modeproperty value for this command invocation.ENDPOINT_MODEmust be one of:global- (Default) Use global rather than regional endpoints.
regional- Only use regional endpoints. An error will be raised if a regional endpoint is not available for a given command.
regional-preferred- Use regional endpoints when available, otherwise use global endpoints. Recommended for most users.
--management-interface=[KEY=VALUE,…]-
Management interface configuration for the accelerator pod controller. Can be
specified multiple times. Keys include
key,type,network,subnetwork,ipv4-address,ipv6-address, andtrust-config. --management-interfaces-file=MANAGEMENT_INTERFACES_FILE- Path to a YAML or JSON file containing management interface configurations.
- 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 helpfor details. - API REFERENCE
-
This command uses the
compute/alphaAPI. The full documentation for this API can be found at: https://cloud.google.com/compute/ - REGIONAL ENDPOINTS
-
This command supports regional endpoints. To use regional endpoints for this
command, use the
--endpoint-mode=regional-preferredflag. To use regional endpoints by default, run$ gcloud config set regional/endpoint_mode regional-preferred. - NOTES
- This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist.
