GCLOUD COMPUTE TARGET-INSTANCES CREATE(1)

NAME
       gcloud_compute_target-instances_create - create a target instance for
              handling traffic from a forwarding rule

SYNOPSIS
       gcloud compute target-instances create NAME [--description DESCRIPTION]
              [--format FORMAT] [--help] --instance INSTANCE
              [--project PROJECT_ID] [--quiet, -q] [--zone ZONE] [-h]

DESCRIPTION
       gcloud compute target-instances create is used to create a target
       instance for handling traffic from one or more forwarding rules. Target
       instances are ideal for traffic that should be managed by a single
       source. For more information on target instances, see
       https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/protocol-forwarding/#targetinstances.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
       NAME
           The name of the target instance.

FLAGS
       --description DESCRIPTION
           An optional, textual description of the target instance.

       --instance INSTANCE
           The name of the virtual machine instance that will handle the
           traffic.

       --zone ZONE
           The zone of the instance to to create the target instance in. If
           not specified, you will 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 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.

   GLOBAL FLAGS
       --format FORMAT
           Specify a format for printed output. By default, a command-specific
           human-friendly output format is used. Setting this flag to one of
           the available options will serialize the result of the command in
           the chosen format and print it to stdout. Supported formats are:
           json, text, yaml.

       --help
           Display detailed help.

       --project PROJECT_ID
           The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation.
           If omitted then the current project is assumed.

       --quiet, -q
           Disable all interactive prompts when running gcloud commands. If
           input is required, defaults will be used, or an error will be
           raised.

       -h
           Print a summary help and exit.
