Reference documentation and code samples for the Batch v1 API class AllocationPolicy.Types.PlacementPolicy.
PlacementPolicy describes a group placement policy for the VMs controlled
by this AllocationPolicy.
UNSPECIFIED vs. COLLOCATED (default UNSPECIFIED). Use COLLOCATED when you
want VMs to be located close to each other for low network latency
between the VMs. No placement policy will be generated when collocation
is UNSPECIFIED.
When specified, causes the job to fail if more than max_distance logical
switches are required between VMs. Batch uses the most compact possible
placement of VMs even when max_distance is not specified. An explicit
max_distance makes that level of compactness a strict requirement.
