NAME

gcloud beta compute health-checks create grpc - create a gRPC health check to monitor load balanced instances

SYNOPSIS

gcloud beta compute health-checks create grpc NAME [--check-interval=CHECK_INTERVAL; default="5s"] [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--enable-logging] [--grpc-service-name=GRPC_SERVICE_NAME] [--healthy-threshold=HEALTHY_THRESHOLD; default=2] [--timeout=TIMEOUT; default="5s"] [--unhealthy-threshold=UNHEALTHY_THRESHOLD; default=2] [--global | --region=REGION] [--port=PORT --use-serving-port] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

(BETA) gcloud beta compute health-checks create grpc is used to create a non-legacy health check using the gRPC protocol. You can use this health check for Google Cloud load balancers or for managed instance group autohealing. For more information, see the health checks overview at: https://cloud.google.com/load-balancing/docs/health-check-concepts

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

NAME

Name of the gRPC 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 gRPC health check.

--enable-logging

Enable logging of health check probe results to Stackdriver. Logging is disabled by default.

Use --no-enable-logging to disable logging.

--grpc-service-name=GRPC_SERVICE_NAME

An optional gRPC service name string of up to 1024 characters to include in the gRPC health check request. Only ASCII characters are allowed.

--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.

--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 can be specified:
--global

If set, the gRPC health check is global.

--region=REGION

Region of the gRPC health check to create. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

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.
--port=PORT

The TCP port number that this health check monitors.

--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. --use-serving-port must be used when using a Network Endpoint Group as a backend as this flag specifies the portSpecification option for a Health Check object.

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

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 help for details.
