LocalNvmeSsdBlockConfig contains configuration for using
raw-block local NVMe SSDs
Attribute
Name
Description
local_ssd_count
int
Number of local NVMe SSDs to use. The limit for this value
is dependent upon the maximum number of disk available on a
machine per zone. See:
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd for
more information.
A zero (or unset) value has different meanings depending on
machine type being used:
1. For pre-Gen3 machines, which support flexible numbers of
local ssds, zero (or unset) means to disable using local
SSDs as ephemeral storage.
2. For Gen3 machines which dictate a specific number of
local ssds, zero (or unset) means to use the default
number of local ssds that goes with that machine type.
For example, for a c3-standard-8-lssd machine, 2 local
ssds would be provisioned. For c3-standard-8 (which
doesn't support local ssds), 0 will be provisioned. See
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd#choose_number_local_ssds
for more info.
