    DESCRIPTION
    Create a new Bigtable instance.
    EXAMPLES
    To create an instance with id my-instance-id with a cluster located in us-east1-c , run: 
     gcloud  
bigtable  
instances  
create  
my-instance-id  
 --display-name 
 = 
 "My Instance" 
  
 --cluster-config 
 = 
 id 
 = 
my-cluster-id,zone =

    POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
    Instance resource - The instance to create. This represents a Cloud 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.
    REQUIRED FLAGS
    --display-name = DISPLAY_NAME
    Friendly name of the instance.
    OPTIONAL FLAGS
    --async
    Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.
    --cluster = CLUSTER
    (DEPRECATED) ID of the cluster

    The --cluster argument is deprecated; use --cluster-config instead.

    --cluster-config =[ id = ID , zone = ZONE ,[ nodes = NODES ],[ node-scaling-factor = NODE_SCALING_FACTOR ],[ kms-key = KMS_KEY ],[ autoscaling-min-nodes = AUTOSCALING_MIN_NODES , autoscaling-max-nodes = AUTOSCALING_MAX_NODES , autoscaling-cpu-target = AUTOSCALING_CPU_TARGET , autoscaling-storage-target = AUTOSCALING_STORAGE_TARGET ],…]
    Repeatable . Specify cluster config as a key-value dictionary.

    This is the recommended argument for specifying cluster configurations.

    Keys can be:

    *id*:  
Required.  
The  
ID  
of  
the  
cluster.
     
    *zone*:  
Required.  
ID

the  
zone  
where  
the  
cluster  
is  
located.  
Supported  
zones  
are  
listed  
at  
 https://cloud.google.com/bigtable/docs/locations 
.
     
    *nodes*:  
The  
number  
of  
nodes  
 in 
  
the  
cluster.  
 Default

 1 
.
     
    *node-scaling-factor*:  
The  
node  
scaling  
factor  
 for 
  
the  
cluster.  
 Default 
 = 
node-scaling-factor-1x.  
NODE_SCALING_FACTOR  
must  
be  
one  
of:  
node-scaling-factor-1x,  
node-scaling-factor-2x.
     
    *kms-key*:  
The  
Cloud  
KMS  
 ( 
Key  
Management  
Service ) 
  
cryptokey  
that  
will  
be  
used  
to  
protect  
the  
cluster.
     
    *autoscaling-min-nodes*:  
The  
minimum  
number  
of  
nodes  
 for 
  
autoscaling.
     
    *autoscaling-max-nodes*:

nodes  
 for 
  
autoscaling.
     
    *autoscaling-cpu-target*:  
The  
target  
CPU  
utilization  
percentage  
 for 
  
autoscaling.

    *autoscaling-storage-target*:  
The  
target  
storage  
utilization  
gibibytes  
per  
node  
 for 
  
autoscaling.  
Accepted  
values  
are  
from  
 2560 
  
to  
 5120 
  
 for 
  
SSD  
clusters  
and  
 8192 
  
to  
 16384 
  
 for 
  
HDD  
clusters.

    If this argument is specified, the deprecated arguments for configuring a single cluster will be ignored, including --cluster , --cluster-zone , --cluster-num-nodes .

    See EXAMPLES section.

    --cluster-num-nodes = CLUSTER_NUM_NODES
    (DEPRECATED) Number of nodes to serve.

    The --cluster-num-nodes argument is deprecated; use --cluster-config instead.

    --cluster-storage-type = CLUSTER_STORAGE_TYPE ; default="ssd"
    Storage class for the cluster. CLUSTER_STORAGE_TYPE must be one of: hdd , ssd .
    --cluster-zone = CLUSTER_ZONE
    (DEPRECATED) ID of the zone where the cluster is located. Supported zones are listed at https://cloud.google.com/bigtable/docs/locations .

    The --cluster-zone argument is deprecated; use --cluster-config instead.

    --edition = EDITION
    The edition of the instance. EDITION must be one of: ENTERPRISE , ENTERPRISE_PLUS .
    --instance-type = INSTANCE_TYPE ; default="PRODUCTION"
    (DEPRECATED) The type of instance to create.

    The --instance-type argument is deprecated. DEVELOPMENT instances are no longer offered. All instances are of type PRODUCTION. INSTANCE_TYPE must be one of:

    DEVELOPMENT
    Development instances are low-cost instances meant for development and testing only. They do not provide high availability and no service level agreement applies.
    PRODUCTION
    Production instances provide high availability and are suitable for applications in production. Production instances created with the --instance-type argument have 3 nodes if a value is not provided for --cluster-num-nodes.
    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.
