public sealed class VirtualClusterConfig : IMessage<VirtualClusterConfig>, IEquatable<VirtualClusterConfig>, IDeepCloneable<VirtualClusterConfig>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Cloud Dataproc v1 API class VirtualClusterConfig.
The Dataproc cluster config for a cluster that does not directly control the
underlying compute resources, such as a Dataproc-on-GKE
cluster.
Optional. A Cloud Storage bucket used to stage job
dependencies, config files, and job driver console output.
If you do not specify a staging bucket, Cloud
Dataproc will determine a Cloud Storage location (US,
ASIA, or EU) for your cluster's staging bucket according to the
Compute Engine zone where your cluster is deployed, and then create
and manage this project-level, per-location bucket (see
Dataproc staging and temp
buckets).
This field requires a Cloud Storage bucket name, not a gs://... URI to
a Cloud Storage bucket.
