What is the outcome of executing the gsutil command `gsutil mb -c regional -l us-central1 gs://parent-bucket`?

The outcome of executing the gsutil command gsutil mb -c regional -l us-central1 gs://parent-bucket is that it creates a new bucket named "parent-bucket" in the "us-central1" location with the "regional" storage class.

When using gsutil mb, which stands for "make bucket," the command specifically instructs the system to create a new Cloud Storage bucket. The flags -c regional and -l us-central1 clearly indicate the desired storage class and location for the new bucket. Therefore, it's important to note that if "parent-bucket" does not already exist, the command will create it with the specified properties.

There are distinctions regarding the other answers. One indicates modifying properties of an existing bucket, which does not apply here since mb is solely for creating a bucket. Another suggests creating a bucket named "regional" under "parent-bucket," which misinterprets the command structure, as cloud storage buckets do not nest in that way. Lastly, the claim about modifying an existing bucket is misleading; gsutil mb does not alter existing buckets but creates a new one instead.
