NAME

gcloud compute migration machine-image-imports - imports machine images to Google Compute Engine from Google Cloud Storage

SYNOPSIS

gcloud compute migration machine-image-imports COMMAND [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]

DESCRIPTION

gcloud migration vms machine-image-imports provides a more robust and better supported method for importing machine images to Google Compute Engine. Other image-related operations (for example, list) can be done using gcloud compute images, as usual.

The commands use VM Migration API which supports importing of a machine image from a Google Cloud Storage file (gs://…) to a target project. VM Migration API must be enabled in your project.

gcloud migration vms machine-image-imports create creates a machine Image Import resource with a nested Image Import Job resource. The Image Import Job resource tracks the machine image import progress. After the Image Import Job completes, successfully or otherwise, there's no further use for the Image Import resource.

The machine image is imported to a Google Cloud Project, desginated by the Target Project resource. To get a list of Target Projects, run the gcloud alpha migration vms target-projects list command. Use the Google Cloud console to add target project resources. For information on adding target projects, see https://cloud.google.com/migrate/virtual-machines/docs/5.0/how-to/target-project.

A project can support up to a certain number of Image Import resources per project. Hence it's recommended to delete an Image Import resource after the Image Import Job is complete to avoid reaching the Image Import resources limit. Deletion of Image Import resource does not affect the imported machine image. For more information about the image import resource, see https://cloud.google.com/migrate/virtual-machines/docs/5.0/migrate/image_import.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS

These flags are available to all commands: --help.

Run $ gcloud help for details.
