    32  
    33  * `image` - (Optional) The image from which to initialize this disk.  Either the full URL, a
    34    contraction of the form "project/name", or just a name (in which case the current project is
    35  used).
    36  
    37  * `snapshot` - (Optional) Name of snapshot from which to initialize this disk;
    38  
    39  * `size` - (Optional) The size of the image in gigabytes. If not specified,
    40      it will inherit the size of its base image.
    41  
    42  * `type` - (Optional) The GCE disk type.
    43
