Spinnaker bakery error: Subnetwork should be specified for custom subnetmode network, invalid

Question

I have installed Spinnaker version: 1.14.11 (local) from scratch on a GCP VM and did hal config. Spinnaker is able to see the compute instances and network in the project. Spinnaker also works fine creating server group / LB and firewall. but once I setup the pipeline to bake and deploy, it fails with the following error.

==> googlecompute: Creating temporary SSH key for instance...

==> Some builds didn't complete successfully and had errors:

==> Builds finished but no artifacts were created.

HAL config:

google:

      accounts:
      - name: my-gce-account
        requiredGroupMembership: []
        providerVersion: V1

        baseImages: []
        zone: us-east1-b
        network: "devops"
        useInternalIp: true

devops is a custom VPC network, where should I provide the Subnetwork? or how to fix this error?

Please advise.

Answer 1

Managed to resolved this issue by passing "gce_subnetwork" as an "Extended Attributes" under "Bake Configuration" in the pipeline.

Hope this might help some.

Answer 2

I had this error when attempting to create a compute instance using the gcloud compute CLI command.

Solution

My solution was to add the --subnet flag and the --zone flag with a zone value corresponding to the zone of the subnetwork:

Example Command

gcloud compute instances import kbull-instance2022 \
  --os=debian-9 \
  --network=bull \
  --subnet=pen \
  --zone=us-east1-a \
  --source-uri=gs://bull-pen-image/bull-image-virtualbox.ova \
  --custom-cpu=2 \
  --custom-memory=2048MB
