This module allows creating a managed instance group supporting one or more application versions via instance templates. Optionally, a health check and an autoscaler can be created, and the managed instance group can be configured to be stateful.
This module can be coupled with the compute-vm
module which can manage instance templates, and the net-ilb
module to assign the MIG to a backend wired to an Internal Load Balancer. The first use case is shown in the examples below.
Stateful disks can be created directly, as shown in the last example below.
This example shows how to manage a simple MIG that leverages the compute-vm
module to manage the underlying instance template. The following sub-examples will only show how to enable specific features of this module, and won't replicate the combined setup.
module "cos-nginx" {
source = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/nginx"
}
module "nginx-template" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-vm"
project_id = var.project_id
name = "nginx-template"
zone = "europe-west1-b"
tags = ["http-server", "ssh"]
network_interfaces = [{
network = var.vpc.self_link
subnetwork = var.subnet.self_link
nat = false
addresses = null
}]
boot_disk = {
initialize_params = {
image = "projects/cos-cloud/global/images/family/cos-stable"
}
}
create_template = true
metadata = {
user-data = module.cos-nginx.cloud_config
}
}
module "nginx-mig" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-mig"
project_id = "my-project"
location = "europe-west1-b"
name = "mig-test"
target_size = 2
instance_template = module.nginx-template.template.self_link
}
# tftest modules=2 resources=2
If multiple versions are desired, use more compute-vm
instances for the additional templates used in each version (not shown here), and reference them like this:
module "cos-nginx" {
source = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/nginx"
}
module "nginx-template" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-vm"
project_id = var.project_id
name = "nginx-template"
zone = "europe-west1-b"
tags = ["http-server", "ssh"]
network_interfaces = [{
network = var.vpc.self_link
subnetwork = var.subnet.self_link
nat = false
addresses = null
}]
boot_disk = {
initialize_params = {
image = "projects/cos-cloud/global/images/family/cos-stable"
}
}
create_template = true
metadata = {
user-data = module.cos-nginx.cloud_config
}
}
module "nginx-mig" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-mig"
project_id = "my-project"
location = "europe-west1-b"
name = "mig-test"
target_size = 3
instance_template = module.nginx-template.template.self_link
versions = {
canary = {
instance_template = module.nginx-template.template.self_link
target_size = {
fixed = 1
}
}
}
}
# tftest modules=2 resources=2
Autohealing policies can use an externally defined health check, or have this module auto-create one:
module "cos-nginx" {
source = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/nginx"
}
module "nginx-template" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-vm"
project_id = var.project_id
name = "nginx-template"
zone = "europe-west1-b"
tags = ["http-server", "ssh"]
network_interfaces = [{
network = var.vpc.self_link,
subnetwork = var.subnet.self_link,
nat = false,
addresses = null
}]
boot_disk = {
initialize_params = {
image = "projects/cos-cloud/global/images/family/cos-stable"
}
}
create_template = true
metadata = {
user-data = module.cos-nginx.cloud_config
}
}
module "nginx-mig" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-mig"
project_id = "my-project"
location = "europe-west1-b"
name = "mig-test"
target_size = 3
instance_template = module.nginx-template.template.self_link
auto_healing_policies = {
initial_delay_sec = 30
}
health_check_config = {
enable_logging = true
http = {
port = 80
}
}
}
# tftest modules=2 resources=3
The module can create and manage an autoscaler associated with the MIG. When using autoscaling do not set the target_size
variable or set it to null
. Here we show a CPU utilization autoscaler, the other available modes are load balancing utilization and custom metric, like the underlying autoscaler resource.
module "cos-nginx" {
source = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/nginx"
}
module "nginx-template" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-vm"
project_id = var.project_id
name = "nginx-template"
zone = "europe-west1-b"
tags = ["http-server", "ssh"]
network_interfaces = [{
network = var.vpc.self_link
subnetwork = var.subnet.self_link
nat = false
addresses = null
}]
boot_disk = {
initialize_params = {
image = "projects/cos-cloud/global/images/family/cos-stable"
}
}
create_template = true
metadata = {
user-data = module.cos-nginx.cloud_config
}
}
module "nginx-mig" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-mig"
project_id = "my-project"

cooldown_period = 30
scaling_signals = {
cpu_utilization = {
target = 0.65
}
}
}
}

Stateful MIGs have some limitations documented here. Enforcement of these requirements is the responsibility of users of this module.
You can configure a disk defined in the instance template to be stateful for all instances in the MIG by configuring in the MIG's stateful policy, using the stateful_disk_mig
variable. Alternatively, you can also configure stateful persistent disks individually per instance of the MIG by setting the stateful_disk_instance
variable. A discussion on these scenarios can be found in the docs.
An example using only the configuration at the MIG level can be seen below.
Note that when referencing the stateful disk, you use device_name
and not disk_name
.
module "cos-nginx" {
source = "./fabric/modules/cloud-config-container/nginx"
}
module "nginx-template" {
source = "./fabric/modules/compute-vm"
project_id = var.project_id
name = "nginx-template"
zone = "europe-west1-b"
tags = ["http-server", "ssh"]
network_interfaces = [{
network = var.vpc.self_link
subnetwork = var.subnet.self_link
nat = false
addresses = null
}]
boot_disk = {
initialize_params = {
image = "projects/cos-cloud/global/images/family/cos-stable"
}
}
attached_disks = [{
name = "repd-1"
size = null
source_type = "attach"
source = "regions/${var.region}/disks/repd-test-1"
options = {
mode = "READ_ONLY"
replica_zone = "${var.region}-c"
type = "PERSISTENT"
}
}]
create_template = true
metadata = {
user-data = module.cos-nginx.cloud_config
}
}
module "nginx-mig" {

project_id = "my-project"
location = "europe-west1-b"
name = "mig-test"
target_size = 3
instance_template = module.nginx-template.template.self_link
autoscaler_config = {
max_replicas = 3
min_replicas = 1
cooldown_period = 30
scaling_signals = {
cpu_utilization = {
target = 0.65
}
}
}
stateful_disks = {
repd-1 = false
}
}

Here is an example defining the stateful config at the instance level.
Note that you will need to know the instance name in order to use this configuration.
