google_compute_disk

Creates a new persistent disk within GCE, based on another disk.

~> Note: All arguments including the disk encryption key will be stored in the raw state as plain-text. Read more about sensitive data in state.

Example Usage

resource "google_compute_disk" "default" {
  name  = "test-disk"
  type  = "pd-ssd"
  zone  = "us-central1-a"
  image = "debian-8-jessie-v20170523"
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

• name - (Required) A unique name for the resource, required by GCE. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

• zone - (Required) The zone where this disk will be available.

---

• disk_encryption_key_raw - (Optional) A 256-bit [customer-supplied encryption key] (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/customer-supplied-encryption), encoded in RFC 4648 base64 to encrypt this disk.

• image - (Optional) The image from which to initialize this disk. This can be one of: the image's self_link, of a full name and version, e.g. debian-8-jessie-v20170523

• project - (Optional) The project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used.

• size - (Optional) The size of the image in gigabytes. If not specified, it will inherit the size of its base image.

• snapshot - (Optional) Name of snapshot from which to initialize this disk.

• type - (Optional) The GCE disk type.

Attributes Reference

In addition to the arguments listed above, the following computed attributes are exported:

• disk_encryption_key_sha256 - The [RFC 4648 base64] (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4) encoded SHA-256 hash of the customer-supplied encryption key that protects this resource.

• self_link - The URI of the created resource.

• users - (Computed) The Users of the created resource.

Import

Disks can be imported using the name, e.g.

$ terraform import google_compute_disk.default test-disk
