DESCRIPTION

Create a new AlloyDB cluster within a given project.

EXAMPLES

To create a new cluster, run:

$ gcloud alloydb clusters create my-cluster --region=us-central1 \ --password=postgres

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

CLUSTER

AlloyDB cluster ID

REQUIRED FLAGS

--password=PASSWORD

Initial postgres user password to set up during cluster creation.

--region=REGION

Regional location (e.g. asia-east1, us-east1). See the full list of regions at https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/instance-locations.

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--async

Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.

--network=NETWORK

Network in the current project that the instance will be part of. To specify using a network with a shared VPC, use the full URL of the network. For an example host project, 'testproject', and shared network, 'testsharednetwork', this would be of the form:--network=projects/testproject/global/networks/testsharednetwork

Automated backup policy. If unspecified, automated backups are enabled.

At most one of these can be specified:

--disable-automated-backup

Disables automated backups on the cluster.

Enable automated backup policy.
--automated-backup-days-of-week=[DAYS_OF_WEEK,...]

Comma-separated list of days of the week to perform a backup. At least one day of the week must be provided. (e.g., --automated-backup-days-of-week=MONDAY,WEDNESDAY,SUNDAY). DAYS_OF_WEEK must be one of: MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--automated-backup-start-times=[START_TIMES,...]

Comma-separated list of times during the day to start a backup. At least one start time must be provided. The start times are assumed to be in UTC and required to be an exact hour in the format HH:00. (e.g., --automated-backup-start-times=01:00,13:00)

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--automated-backup-window=TIMEOUT_PERIOD

The length of the time window beginning at start time during which a backup can be taken. If a backup does not succeed within this time window, it will be canceled and considered failed. The backup window must be at least 5 minutes long. There is no upper bound on the window. If not set, it will default to 1 hour.

Key resource - The Cloud KMS (Key Management Service) cryptokey that will be

used to protect the automated backups. The 'AlloyDB Service Agent' service account must hold permission 'Cloud KMS CryptoKey Encrypter/Decrypter'. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource.

--automated-backup-encryption-key=AUTOMATED_BACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY

ID of the key or fully qualified identifier for the key. To set the kms-key attribute:

  • provide the argument --automated-backup-encryption-key on the command line.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--automated-backup-encryption-key-keyring=AUTOMATED_BACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY_KEYRING

The KMS keyring of the key. To set the kms-keyring attribute:

  • provide the argument --automated-backup-encryption-key on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --automated-backup-encryption-key-keyring on the command line.

--automated-backup-encryption-key-location=AUTOMATED_BACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY_LOCATION

The Cloud location for the key. To set the kms-location attribute:

  • provide the argument --automated-backup-encryption-key on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --automated-backup-encryption-key-location on the command line.

--automated-backup-encryption-key-project=AUTOMATED_BACKUP_ENCRYPTION_KEY_PROJECT

The Cloud project for the key. To set the kms-project attribute:

  • provide the argument --automated-backup-encryption-key on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --automated-backup-encryption-key-project on the command line;

  • set the property core/project.

Retention policy. If no retention policy is provided, all automated backups will

be retained.

At most one of these can be specified:

--automated-backup-retention-count=RETENTION_COUNT

Number of most recent successful backups retained.

--automated-backup-retention-period=RETENTION_PERIOD

Retention period of the backup relative to creation time. See $ gcloud topic datetimes for information on duration formats.

Key resource - The Cloud KMS (Key Management Service) cryptokey that will be

used to protect the cluster. The 'AlloyDB Service Agent' service account must hold permission 'Cloud KMS CryptoKey Encrypter/Decrypter'. The arguments in this group can be used to specify the attributes of this resource.

--kms-key=KMS_KEY

ID of the key or fully qualified identifier for the key. To set the kms-key attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line.

This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--kms-keyring=KMS_KEYRING

The KMS keyring of the key. To set the kms-keyring attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --kms-keyring on the command line.

--kms-location=KMS_LOCATION

The Cloud location for the key. To set the kms-location attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --kms-location on the command line.

--kms-project=KMS_PROJECT

The Cloud project for the key. To set the kms-project attribute:

  • provide the argument --kms-key on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --kms-project on the command line;

  • set the property core/project.
