NAME
- gcloud compute target-instances create - create a target instance for handling traffic from a forwarding rule
SYNOPSIS

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
- NAME

Name of the target instance to operate on.
REQUIRED FLAGS
-
- --instance=INSTANCE
-
The name of the virtual machine instance that will handle the traffic.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
- --description=DESCRIPTION
-
An optional, textual description of the target instance.
- --instance-zone=INSTANCE_ZONE
-
Zone of the instance to operate on. If not specified, it will be set to the same
as zone. Overrides the default compute/zone property value for this
command invocation.
- --zone=ZONE
-
Zone of the target instance to operate on. If not specified and the
compute/zone property isn't set, you may be prompted to select a
zone.
To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/zone property:
- $ gcloud config set compute/zone ZONE
A list of zones can be fetched by running:
- $ gcloud compute zones list
To unset the property, run:
- $ gcloud config unset compute/zone
Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
These flags are available to all commands: --account, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity. Run $ gcloud help for details.
