The cluster is bootstrapping with data from some other source.
Direct mutations to the cluster (e.g. adding read pool) are not allowed.
Creating
The cluster is being created.
Deleting
The cluster is being deleted.
Empty
The cluster is empty and has no associated resources.
All instances, associated storage and backups have been deleted.
Failed
The creation of the cluster failed.
Maintenance
The cluster is under maintenance. AlloyDB regularly performs maintenance
and upgrades on customer clusters. Updates on the cluster are
not allowed while the cluster is in this state.
Promoting
The cluster is being promoted.
Ready
The cluster is active and running.
Stopped
The cluster is stopped. All instances in the cluster are stopped.
Customers can start a stopped cluster at any point and all their
instances will come back to life with same names and IP resources. In
this state, customer pays for storage.
Associated backups could also be present in a stopped cluster.
