You frequently create Compute Engine instances in the 'europe-west1-b' zone. You are tired of typing the '--zone=europe-west1-b' flag every time you run the 'gcloud compute instances create' command.

Which command will set this zone as your default so you no longer have to specify it?

Answer options:

gcloud compute set zone europe-west1-b

gcloud config set compute/zone europe-west1-b

gcloud config set zone europe-west1-b

gcloud compute zones set default europe-west1-b

How to approach this question

Remember the structure of gcloud config properties: section/property.

Full Answer

B.gcloud config set compute/zone europe-west1-b✓ Correct

gcloud config set compute/zone europe-west1-b

To set default properties in the Cloud SDK, you use `gcloud config set [SECTION]/[PROPERTY] [VALUE]`. For the default compute zone, the section is 'compute' and the property is 'zone'.

Common mistakes

Forgetting the 'compute/' prefix in the property name.
