    GCP ACE · Question 22 · Domain 3.2: Deploying and implementing GKE resources

    You need to create a new Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster named 'web-cluster' in the us-central1-a zone using the Cloud SDK.

    Which command should you use?

    Answer options:

    A.

    gcloud compute clusters create web-cluster --zone us-central1-a

    B.

    gcloud container clusters create web-cluster --zone us-central1-a

    C.

    kubectl create cluster web-cluster --zone us-central1-a

    D.

    gcloud gke clusters create web-cluster --zone us-central1-a

    How to approach this question

    Remember the gcloud command group for GKE.

    Full Answer

    B.gcloud container clusters create web-cluster --zone us-central1-a✓ Correct
    In the Google Cloud SDK, commands related to Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) are located under the `gcloud container` group. The command to create a cluster is `gcloud container clusters create [CLUSTER_NAME]`.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing `kubectl create cluster`. `kubectl` interacts with the Kubernetes API server *after* the cluster exists. `gcloud` interacts with the GCP API to provision the infrastructure.
