GCE Virtual Machine Discoveryedit

Google Compute Engine VM discovery allows to use the google APIs to perform automatic discovery (similar to multicast in non hostile multicast environments). Here is a simple sample configuration:

cloud:
  gce:
      project_id: <your-google-project-id>
      zone: <your-zone>
discovery:
      type: gce
Important

It’s important to define network.host as by default it’s bound to localhost.

You can use core network host settings or gce specific host settings:
