15.3. Adding Google Compute Engine Details to a Compute Profile

Procedure

1. In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Infrastructure > Compute Profiles.
2. In the Compute Profiles window, click the name of an existing compute profile, or click Create Compute Profile, enter a Name, and click Submit.
3. Click the name of the GCE compute resource.
4. From the Machine Type list, select the machine type to use for provisioning.
5. From the Image list, select the image to use for provisioning.
6. From the Network list, select the GCE network to use for provisioning.
7. Optional: Select the Associate Ephemeral External IP check box to assign a dynamic ephemeral IP address that Satellite uses to communicate with the host. This public IP address changes when you reboot the host. If you need a permanent IP address, reserve a static public IP address on GCE and attach it to the host.
8. In the Size (GB) field, enter the size of the storage to create on the host.
9. Click Submit to save the compute profile.

For CLI Users

1. Create a compute profile to use with the GCE compute resource:

   # hammer compute-profile create --name gce_profile

2. Add GCE details to the compute profile.

   # hammer compute-profile values create --compute-profile gce_profile \
   --compute-resource 'gce_cr' \
   --volume "size_gb=20" \
   --compute-attributes "machine_type=f1-micro,associate_external_ip=true,network=default"
