SYNOPSIS
gcloud compute backend-services create NAME [--description DESCRIPTION]
[--format FORMAT] [--help]
[--http-health-checks HTTP_HEALTH_CHECK [HTTP_HEALTH_CHECK ...]]
[--port PORT] [--port-name PORT_NAME] [--project PROJECT_ID]
[--protocol PROTOCOL; default="HTTP"] [--quiet, -q]
[--timeout TIMEOUT; default="30s"] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute backend-services create is used to create backend
services. Backend services define groups of backends that can receive
traffic. Each backend group has parameters that define the group’s
capacity (e.g., max CPU utilization, max queries per second, ...). URL
maps define which requests are sent to which backend services.
Backend services created through this command will start out without
any backend groups. To add backend groups, use gcloud compute
backend-services add-backend or gcloud compute backend-services edit.
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
NAME
The name of the backend service.
FLAGS--description DESCRIPTION
An optional, textual description for the backend service.
--http-health-checks HTTP_HEALTH_CHECK [HTTP_HEALTH_CHECK ...]
Specifies a list of HTTP health check objects for checking the
health of the backend service.
--port PORT
The TCP port to use when connecting to the backend. --port is being
deprecated in favor of --port-name.
--port-name PORT_NAME
The name of a service that has been added to an instance group in
this backend. Instance group services map a name to a port number
which is used by the load balancing service. Only one port-name may
be added to a backend service, and that name must exist as a
service on all instance groups that are a part of this backend
service. The port number associated with the name may differ
between instances. If you do not specify this flag, your instance
groups must have a service named http configured. See *gcloud
preview instance-groups add-service(1)* for details.
--protocol PROTOCOL; default="HTTP"
The protocol for incoming requests.
--timeout TIMEOUT; default="30s"
The amount of time to wait for a backend to respond to a request
before considering the request failed. For example, specifying 10s
will give backends 10 seconds to respond to requests. Valid units
for this flag are s for seconds, m for minutes, and h for hours.
GLOBAL FLAGS
--format FORMAT
Specify a format for printed output. By default, a command-specific
human-friendly output format is used. Setting this flag to one of
the available options will serialize the result of the command in
the chosen format and print it to stdout. Supported formats are:
json, text, yaml.
--help
Display detailed help.
--project PROJECT_ID
The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation.
If omitted then the current project is assumed.
--quiet, -q
Disable all interactive prompts when running gcloud commands. If
input is required, defaults will be used, or an error will be
raised.
-h
Print a summary help and exit.
NOTES
This command is in the Google Cloud SDK compute component. See
installing components if it is not installed.
