Creates a new DatacenterConnector in a given Source.

Scopes

You will need authorization for the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform scope to make a valid call.

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: vmmigration1 --scope <scope> projects locations-sources-datacenter-connectors-create ...

Required Scalar Argument

• <parent> (string)
  • Required. The DatacenterConnector's parent. Required. The Source in where the new DatacenterConnector will be created. For example: projects/my-project/locations/us-central1/sources/my-source

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

DatacenterConnector:
  appliance-infrastructure-version: string
  appliance-software-version: string
  available-versions:
    in-place-update:
      critical: boolean
      release-notes-uri: string
      uri: string
      version: string
    new-deployable-appliance:
      critical: boolean
      release-notes-uri: string
      uri: string
      version: string
  bucket: string
  create-time: string
  error:
    code: integer
    message: string
  name: string
  registration-id: string
  service-account: string
  state: string
  state-time: string
  update-time: string
  upgrade-status:
    error:
      code: integer
      message: string
    previous-version: string
    start-time: string
    state: string
    version: string
  version: string

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

• -r . appliance-infrastructure-version=dolor
  • Output only. Appliance OVA version. This is the OVA which is manually installed by the user and contains the infrastructure for the automatically updatable components on the appliance.
• appliance-software-version=duo
  • Output only. Appliance last installed update bundle version. This is the version of the automatically updatable components on the appliance.
• available-versions.in-place-update critical=false
  • Determine whether it's critical to upgrade the appliance to this version.
• release-notes-uri=vero
  • Link to a page that contains the version release notes.
• uri=invidunt
  • A link for downloading the version.

• version=stet

  • The appliance version.

• ..new-deployable-appliance critical=false

  • Determine whether it's critical to upgrade the appliance to this version.
• release-notes-uri=elitr
  • Link to a page that contains the version release notes.
• uri=lorem
  • A link for downloading the version.

• version=diam

  • The appliance version.

• ... bucket=no

  • Output only. The communication channel between the datacenter connector and Google Cloud.
• create-time=ipsum
  • Output only. The time the connector was created (as an API call, not when it was actually installed).
• error code=78
  • The status code, which should be an enum value of google.rpc.Code.

• message=takimata

  • A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in the google.rpc.Status.details field, or localized by the client.

• .. name=consetetur

  • Output only. The connector's name.
• registration-id=voluptua.
  • Immutable. A unique key for this connector. This key is internal to the OVA connector and is supplied with its creation during the registration process and can not be modified.
• service-account=et
  • The service account to use in the connector when communicating with the cloud.
• state=erat
  • Output only. State of the DatacenterConnector, as determined by the health checks.
• state-time=consetetur
  • Output only. The time the state was last set.
• update-time=amet.
  • Output only. The last time the connector was updated with an API call.
• upgrade-status.error code=71
  • The status code, which should be an enum value of google.rpc.Code.

• message=takimata

  • A developer-facing error message, which should be in English. Any user-facing error message should be localized and sent in the google.rpc.Status.details field, or localized by the client.

• .. previous-version=dolores

  • The version from which we upgraded.
• start-time=gubergren
  • The time the operation was started.
• state=et
  • The state of the upgradeAppliance operation.

• version=accusam

  • The version to upgrade to.

• .. version=voluptua.

  • The version running in the DatacenterConnector. This is supplied by the OVA connector during the registration process and can not be modified.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

• The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
• The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
• You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
• You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

• -o out
  • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional Method Properties

You may set the following properties to further configure the call. Please note that -p is followed by one or more key-value-pairs, and is called like this -p k1=v1 k2=v2 even though the listing below repeats the -p for completeness.

• -p datacenter-connector-id=string

  • Required. The datacenterConnector identifier.

• -p request-id=string

  • A request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed. The server will guarantee that for at least 60 minutes since the first request. For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments. The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000).

Optional General Properties

The following properties can configure any call, and are not specific to this method.

• -p $-xgafv=string

  • V1 error format.

• -p access-token=string

  • OAuth access token.

• -p alt=string

  • Data format for response.

• -p callback=string

  • JSONP

• -p fields=string

  • Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

• -p key=string

  • API key. Your API key identifies your project and provides you with API access, quota, and reports. Required unless you provide an OAuth 2.0 token.

• -p oauth-token=string

  • OAuth 2.0 token for the current user.

• -p pretty-print=boolean

  • Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

• -p quota-user=string

  • Available to use for quota purposes for server-side applications. Can be any arbitrary string assigned to a user, but should not exceed 40 characters.
