# gcloud commands hang

Dated: 11th March, 2021

Context: <https://cloud.google.com/anthos/multicluster-management/connect/registering-a-cluster>

```bash
gcloud container hub memberships register $REMOTE_CLUSTER_NAME \
>  --context=$REMOTE_CLUSTER_NAME \
>  --service-account-key-file=$GKE_SA_CREDS \
>  --project=$PROJECT
```

This command did hang. I tried to `REGISTER` via UI.
