[GCP] Create disk from snapshot of another project

Posted by clsung on Thursday, October 26, 2017

Step 0: create snapshot from desired disk, example name: disk-snapshot-20171026

Step 1: copy the selfLink from snapshot’s equivalent REST response: projects/another-project/global/snapshots/disk-snapshot-20171026

Note: One can get the link via the following command:

gcloud compute snapshots list --project=another-project --uri

Step 2: execute the following command (replace current-project and asia-east1-a with your own project and zone, respectively)

gcloud compute disks create disk1 --project=current-project \
  --source-snapshot=projects/another-project/global/snapshots/disk-snapshot-20171026 \
  --zone=asia-east1-a
