NAME

gcloud memcache instances create - create a Memorystore Memcached instance

SYNOPSIS

gcloud memcache instances create (INSTANCE : --region=REGION) --node-count=NODE_COUNT --node-cpu=NODE_CPU --node-memory=NODE_MEMORY [--async] [--authorized-network=AUTHORIZED_NETWORK] [--display-name=DISPLAY_NAME] [--labels=KEY=VALUE] [--maintenance-window-day=MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_DAY] [--maintenance-window-duration=MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_DURATION] [--maintenance-window-start-time=MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_START_TIME] [--memcached-version=MEMCACHED_VERSION] [--parameters=KEY=VALUE] [--zones=[ZONES,...]] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

Create a new Memorystore Memcached instance.

This command can fail for the following reasons:

EXAMPLES

To create a Memcached instance named 'my-memcache-instance' in region 'us-central1' with 3 nodes, each with 2 CPUs and 2GB of memory, run:

$ gcloud memcache instances create my-memcache-instance \ --region=us-central1 --node-count=3 --node-cpu=2 \ --node-memory=2GB

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

Instance resource - Arguments and flags that specify the Memcached 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.

--region=REGION

The name of the Memcached region of the instance. Overrides the default memcache/region property value for this command invocation.

To set the region attribute:

  • provide the argument instance on the command line with a fully specified name;

  • provide the argument --region on the command line;

  • set the property memcache/region.

REQUIRED FLAGS

--node-count=NODE_COUNT

Number of memcache nodes in this instance. Valid values range from 1 to 20.

--node-cpu=NODE_CPU

Number of cpus per node in this instance. Valid values are 1 or even number between 2-32. Value of 1 is not supported in all regions.

--node-memory=NODE_MEMORY

Amount of memory allocated per node in this instance. The value must be a whole number followed by a size unit of 'MB' for megabyte, or 'GB' for gigabyte, ie '3072MB' or '9GB'. The value must be between 1024MB and 307200MB.

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--async

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

--authorized-network=AUTHORIZED_NETWORK

Full name of the Google Compute Engine network to which the instance is connected. If unspecified, the default network will be used.

--display-name=DISPLAY_NAME

An arbitrary and optional user provided name for the instance.

--labels=KEY=VALUE

List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to add.

--maintenance-window-day=MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_DAY

The day of week when the window starts, e.g. sunday. MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_DAY must be one of: friday, monday, saturday, sunday, thursday, tuesday, wednesday.

--maintenance-window-duration=MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_DURATION

Duration in integer hours (3 to 8) of the maintenance window.

--maintenance-window-start-time=MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_START_TIME

Hour of day (0 to 23) for the start of maintenance window, in UTC time zone.

--memcached-version=MEMCACHED_VERSION

Optional major version of Memcached software to use with the instance. If not provided, default of "1.5" will be used. MEMCACHED_VERSION must be (currently only one value is supported):

1.5

Memcached major version 1.5

--parameters=KEY=VALUE

User defined parameters to apply to the memcached process on each node. Possible attributes include:

listen-backlog

The backlog queue limit for the instance.

disable-flush-all

If enabled, flush_all command will be disabled. Applicable to 1.4.24 and higher.

max-item-size

Max bytes of the instnace. Must at least be equal to slab_chunk_max (which defaults to 524288 bytes) and less than 134217728 bytes. Additionally it must be a multiple of slab_chunk_max.

slab-min-size

This is an integer in the range [1, 1024].

slab-growth-factor

This is a float in the range [1.01, 100].

protocol

This is an enum with acceptable values of ["ascii", "auto"].

disable-cas

This is a boolean value.

disable-evictions

This is a boolean value.

max-reqs-per-event

This is an integer in the range [1, 1000].

track-sizes

This is a boolean value.

worker-logbuf-size

This is an integer in the range [48, 524288].

watcher-logbuf-size

This is an integer in the range [0, 2097151].

lru-crawler

This is a boolean value.

idle-timeout

lru-maintainer

This is a boolean value.

maxconns-fast

This is a boolean value.

hash-algorithm

This is an enum with accepted values of ["jenkins", "murmur3"].

--zones=[ZONES,...]

List of zones for the memcache nodes. The nodes will be divided equally across the given zones up to --node-count value. If not provided, the service will by default create nodes in all zones in the region specified by --region flag.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
