NAME
gcloud alpha compute zone-vm-extension-policies create - create a Compute Engine zone VM extension policy
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha compute zone-vm-extension-policies create NAME --extensions=EXTENSIONS [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--filestore-config=FILESTORE_CONFIG] [--filestore-version=FILESTORE_VERSION] [--inclusion-labels=INCLUSION_LABELS] [--priority=PRIORITY; default=1000] [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA) Create a Compute Engine zone VM extension policy.
EXAMPLES
To create a zone VM extension policy, run: 
gcloud alpha compute zone-vm-extension-policies create test-policy-name --description="test policy" --extensions=filestore --filestore-version=20250101RC00 --filestore-config=config1 --inclusion-labels=env=prod --inclusion-labels=env=preprod,workload=load-test --priority=1000
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
NAME
Name of the zone vm extension policy to create.
REQUIRED FLAGS
--extensions=EXTENSIONS
A list of extensions to be added to the policy. EXTENSIONS must be (only one value is supported): filestore.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
--description=DESCRIPTION
An optional textual description for the this extension policy.
--filestore-config=FILESTORE_CONFIG
The config send to the extension when extension starts.
--filestore-version=FILESTORE_VERSION
The pinned version for filestore.

If not specified, the latest version will be used, and will be upgraded automatically.

--inclusion-labels=INCLUSION_LABELS
A list of inclusion labels to select the target VMs.

The expected format for a single selector is "key1=value1,key2=value2". A VM is selected if it has ALL the inclusion labels.

When the option is specified multiple times, it assumes a logical OR between the selectors.

For example, if the inclusion labels are ["env=prod,workload=frontend", "workload=backend"], the following VMs will be selected:

  • VM1: env=prod, workload=frontend, something=else
  • VM2: env=prod, workload=backend But not:
  • VM3: env=prod

If not specified, ALL VMs in the zone will be selected.

--priority=PRIORITY; default=1000
The priority of the policy. Lower the number, higher the priority. When two policies tries to apply the same extension, the one with the higher priority takes precedence. If the priority is the same, the one with the more recent update timestamp takes precedence. When a policy is deleted, the extension would remain installed on the VM if a lower priority policy still applies.

Range from 0 to 65535. Default is 1000.

--zone=ZONE
Zone of the zone vm extension policy to create. If not specified and the compute/zone property isn't set, you might be prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only).

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 be 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.

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.

NOTES
This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist.
