POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

NAME

Name of the HTTP2 health check to create.

FLAGS

--check-interval=CHECK_INTERVAL; default="5s"

How often to perform a health check for an instance. For example, specifying 10s will run the check every 10 seconds. The default value is 5s. See $ gcloud topic datetimes for information on duration formats.

--description=DESCRIPTION

An optional string description for the HTTP2 health check.

--healthy-threshold=HEALTHY_THRESHOLD; default=2

The number of consecutive successful health checks before an unhealthy instance is marked as healthy. The default is 2.

--host=HOST

The value of the host header used in this HTTP health check request. By default, this is empty and Google Compute Engine automatically sets the host header in health requests to the same external IP address as the forwarding rule associated with the target pool.

--proxy-header=PROXY_HEADER; default="NONE"

The type of proxy protocol header to be sent to the backend. PROXY_HEADER must be one of:

NONE

No proxy header is added.

PROXY_V1

Adds the header "PROXY UNKNOWN\r\n".

--request-path=REQUEST_PATH; default="/"

The request path that this health check monitors. For example, /healthcheck. The default value is ``/''.

--response=RESPONSE

When empty, status code of the response determines health. When not empty, presence of specified string in first 1024 characters of response body determines health. Only ASCII characters allowed.

--timeout=TIMEOUT; default="5s"

If Google Compute Engine doesn't receive a healthy response from the instance by the time specified by the value of this flag, the health check request is considered a failure. For example, specifying 10s will cause the check to wait for 10 seconds before considering the request a failure. The default value is 5s. See $ gcloud topic datetimes for information on duration formats.

--unhealthy-threshold=UNHEALTHY_THRESHOLD; default=2

The number of consecutive health check failures before a healthy instance is marked as unhealthy. The default is 2.

At most one of these may be specified:

--global

If set, the HTTP2 health check is global.

--region=REGION

Region of the HTTP2 health check to create. If not specified, you may be prompted to select a region.
To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/region property:

$ gcloud config set compute/region REGION

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

$ gcloud compute regions list

To unset the property, run:

$ gcloud config unset compute/region

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION.

These flags configure the port that the health check monitors. If none is specified, the default port of 80 is used; if both --port and --port-name are specified, --port takes precedence.

--port=PORT; default=80

The TCP port number that this health check monitors.

--port-name=PORT_NAME

The port name that this health check monitors. By default, this is empty.

--use-serving-port

If given, use the "serving port" for health checks:

*

When health checking network endpoints in a Network Endpoint Group, use the port specified with each endpoint.

*

When health checking other backends, use the port or named port of the backend service.
