(ALPHA) Create a Filestore instance.
The following command creates a Filestore instance named NAME with a single volume.
$ gcloud alpha filestore instances create NAME \ --description=DESCRIPTION --tier=TIER \ --file-share=name=VOLUME_NAME,capacity=CAPACITY \ --network=name=NETWORK_NAME,\ reserved-ip-range=RESERVED_IP_RANGE,connect-mode=CONNECT_MODE \ --zone=ZONE --flags-file=FLAGS_FILE
Example json configuration file: { "--file-share": {"capacity": "61440", "name": "my_vol", "nfs-export-options": [ { "access-mode": "READ_WRITE", "ip-ranges": [ "10.0.0.0/8", ], "squash-mode": "NO_ROOT_SQUASH", }, { "access-mode": "READ_ONLY", "ip-ranges": [ "192.168.0.0/24" ], "squash-mode": "ROOT_SQUASH" "anon_uid": 1003, "anon_gid": 1003 } ], } }
- Instance resource - The instance 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 project attribute:
- —
provide the argument instance on the command line with a fully specified name;
- —
provide the argument --project on the command line;
- —
set the property core/project.
This must be specified.
- INSTANCE
ID of the instance or fully qualified identifier for the instance. To set the instance attribute:
provide the argument instance on the command line.
This positional argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.
- --zone=ZONE
The zone of the instance. To set the zone attribute:
provide the argument instance on the command line with a fully specified name;
provide the argument --zone on the command line;
provide the argument region on the command line;
provide the argument location on the command line;
set the property filestore/zone;
set the property filestore/region;
set the property filestore/location.
- --file-share=[capacity=CAPACITY],[name=NAME],[nfs-export-options=NFS-EXPORT-OPTIONS],[source-backup=SOURCE-BACKUP],[source-backup-region=SOURCE-BACKUP-REGION],[source-snapshot=SOURCE-SNAPSHOT],[source-snapshot-region=SOURCE-SNAPSHOT-REGION]
File share configuration for an instance. Specifying both name and capacity is required.
- capacity
The desired capacity of the volume in GB or TB units. If no capacity unit is specified, GB is assumed. Acceptable instance capacities for each tier are as follows:
BASIC_HDD: 1TB-63.9TB in 1GB increments or its multiples.
BASIC_SSD: 2.5TB-63.9TB in 1GB increments or its multiples.
HIGH_SCALE_SSD: 10TB-100TB in 2.5TB increments or its multiples.
ENTERPRISE: 1TB-10TB in 256GB increments or its multiples.
- name
The desired logical name of the volume.
- nfs-export-options
The NfsExportOptions for the Cloud Filestore instance file share. Configuring NfsExportOptions is optional. Use the --flags-file flag to specify the path to a JSON or YAML configuration file that contains the required NfsExportOptions flags.
- ip-ranges
A list of IPv4 addresses or CIDR ranges that are allowed to mount the file share. IPv4 addresses format: {octet 1}.{octet 2}.{octet 3}.{octet 4}. CIDR range format: {octet 1}.{octet 2}.{octet 3}.{octet 4}/{mask size}. Overlapping IP ranges, even across NfsExportOptions, are not allowed and will return an error. The limit of IP ranges/addresses for each FileShareConfig among all NfsExportOptions is 64 per instance.
- access-mode
The type of access allowed for the specified IP-addresses or CIDR ranges. READ_ONLY: Allows only read requests on the exported file share. READ_WRITE: Allows both read and write requests on the exported file share. The default setting is READ_WRITE.
- squash-mode
Enables or disables root squash for the specified IP addresses or CIDR ranges. NO_ROOT_SQUASH: Disables root squash to allow root access on the exported file share. ROOT_SQUASH. Enables root squash to remove root access on the exported file share. The default setting is NO_ROOT_SQUASH.
- anon_uid
An integer that represents the user ID of anonymous users. Anon_uid may only be set when squash_mode is set to ROOT_SQUASH. If NO_ROOT_SQUASH is specified, an error will be returned. The default value is 65534.
- anon_gid
An integer that represents the group ID of anonymous groups. Anon_gid may only be set when squash_mode is set to ROOT_SQUASH. If NO_ROOT_SQUASH is specified, an error will be returned. The default value is 65534.
- source-snapshot
The name of the snapshot to restore from. Supported for BASIC instances only.
- source-snapshot-region
The region of the source snapshot. If unspecified, it is assumed that the Filestore snapshot is local and instance-zone will be used.
- source-backup
The name of the backup to restore from.
- source-backup-region
The region of the source backup.
- --network=[connect-mode=CONNECT-MODE],[name=NAME],[reserved-ip-range=RESERVED-IP-RANGE]
Network configuration for a Cloud Filestore instance. Specifying reserved-ip-range and connect-mode is optional.
- name
The name of the Google Compute Engine VPC network to which the instance is connected.
- reserved-ip-range
The reserved-ip-range can have one of the following two types of values: a CIDR range value when using DIRECT_PEERING connect mode or an allocated IP address range https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/ip-addresses/reserve-static-internal-ip-address when using PRIVATE_SERVICE_ACCESS connect mode. When the name of an allocated IP address range is specified, it must be one of the ranges associated with the private service access connection. When specified as a direct CIDR value, it must be a /29 CIDR block for Basic tier or a /24 CIDR block for High Scale or Enterprise tier in one of the internal IP address ranges https://www.arin.net/knowledge/address_filters.html that identifies the range of IP addresses reserved for this instance. For example, 10.0.0.0/29 or 192.168.0.0/24. The range you specify can't overlap with either existing subnets or assigned IP address ranges for other Cloud Filestore instances in the selected VPC network.
- connect-mode
Network connection mode used by instances. CONNECT_MODE must be one of: DIRECT_PEERING or PRIVATE_SERVICE_ACCESS.
- --async
Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
- --description=DESCRIPTION
A description of the Cloud Filestore instance.
- --labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]
List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to add.
Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain only hyphens (-), underscores (_), lowercase characters, and numbers.
- --location=LOCATION
Location of the Cloud Filestore instance/operation.
- --region=REGION
Region of the Cloud Filestore instance.
- --tier=TIER; default="BASIC_HDD"
The service tier for the Cloud Filestore instance. For more details, see: https://cloud.google.com/filestore/docs/instance-tiers
TIER must be one of:
- basic-hdd
Performant NFS storage system using HDD.
- basic-ssd
Performant NFS storage system using SSD.
- enterprise
ENTERPRISE instances offer the features and availability needed for mission-critical workloads.
- high-scale-ssd
High Scale instances offer NFS storage system with expanded capacity and performance scaling capabilities.
- premium
Premium Filestore instance, An alias for BASIC_SSD. Use BASIC_SSD instead whenever possible.
- standard
Standard Filestore instance, An alias for BASIC_HDD. Use BASIC_HDD instead whenever possible.
