    Resource: MachineType

    Represents a Machine Type resource.

    You can use specific machine types for your VM instances based on performance and pricing requirements. For more information, read Machine Types .

    Fields
    kind

    string

    [Output Only] The type of the resource. Always compute#machineType for machine types.
    id

    string ( uint64 format)

    [Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
    creationTimestamp

    string

    [Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
    name

    string

    [Output Only] Name of the resource.
    description

    string

    [Output Only] An optional textual description of the resource.
    guestCpus

    integer

    [Output Only] The number of virtual CPUs that are available to the instance.
    memoryMb

    integer

    [Output Only] The amount of physical memory available to the instance, defined in MB.
    maximumPersistentDisks

    integer

    [Output Only] Maximum persistent disks allowed.
    maximumPersistentDisksSizeGb

    string ( int64 format)

    [Output Only] Maximum total persistent disks size (GB) allowed.
    deprecated

    object

    [Output Only] The deprecation status associated with this machine type. Only applicable if the machine type is unavailable.
    deprecated.state

    enum

    The deprecation state of this resource. This can be ACTIVE , DEPRECATED , OBSOLETE , or DELETED . Operations which communicate the end of life date for an image, can use ACTIVE . Operations which create a new resource using a DEPRECATED resource will return successfully, but with a warning indicating the deprecated resource and recommending its replacement. Operations which use OBSOLETE or DELETED resources will be rejected and result in an error.
    deprecated.replacement

    string

    The URL of the suggested replacement for a deprecated resource. The suggested replacement resource must be the same kind of resource as the deprecated resource.
    deprecated.deprecated

    string

    An optional RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the state of this resource is intended to change to DEPRECATED . This is only informational and the status will not change unless the client explicitly changes it.
    deprecated.obsolete

    string

    An optional RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the state of this resource is intended to change to OBSOLETE . This is only informational and the status will not change unless the client explicitly changes it.
    deprecated.deleted

    string

    An optional RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the state of this resource is intended to change to DELETED . This is only informational and the status will not change unless the client explicitly changes it.
    deprecated.stateOverride

    object

    The rollout policy for this deprecation. This policy is only enforced by image family views. The rollout policy restricts the zones where the associated resource is considered in a deprecated state. When the rollout policy does not include the user specified zone, or if the zone is rolled out, the associated resource is considered in a deprecated state.

    The rollout policy for this deprecation is read-only, except for allowlisted users. This field might not be configured. To view the latest non-deprecated image in a specific zone, use the imageFamilyViews.get method.
    deprecated.stateOverride.locationRolloutPolicies

    map (key: string, value: string)

    Location based rollout policies to apply to the resource.

    Currently only zone names are supported and must be represented as valid URLs, like: zones/us-central1-a.

    The value expects an RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the update is considered rolled out to the specified location.
    deprecated.stateOverride.defaultRolloutTime

    string

    An optional RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the update is considered rolled out to any zone that is not explicitly stated.
    zone

    string

    [Output Only] The name of the zone where the machine type resides, such as us-central1-a.
    isSharedCpu

    boolean

    [Output Only] Whether this machine type has a shared CPU. See Shared-core machine types for more information.
    accelerators[]

    object

    [Output Only] A list of accelerator configurations assigned to this machine type.
    accelerators[].guestAcceleratorType

    string

    The accelerator type resource name, not a full URL, e.g. nvidia-tesla-t4 .
    accelerators[].guestAcceleratorCount

    integer

    Number of accelerator cards exposed to the guest.
    architecture

    enum

    [Output Only] The architecture of the machine type.
    bundledLocalSsds

    object

    [Output Only] The configuration of bundled local SSD for the machine type.
    bundledLocalSsds.partitionCount

    integer

    The number of partitions.
    bundledLocalSsds.defaultInterface

    string

    The default disk interface if the interface is not specified.

    Methods
