+## cloud-sql-proxy wait
+
+Wait for another Proxy process to start
+
+### Synopsis
+
+
+Waiting for Proxy Startup
+
+  Sometimes it is necessary to wait for the Proxy to start.
+
+  To help ensure the Proxy is up and ready, the Proxy includes a wait
+  subcommand with an optional --max flag to set the maximum time to wait.
+  The wait command uses a separate Proxy's startup endpoint to determine
+  if the other Proxy process is ready.
+
+  Invoke the wait command, like this:
+
+  # waits for another Proxy process' startup endpoint to respond
+  ./cloud-sql-proxy wait
+
+Configuration
+
+  By default, the Proxy will wait up to the maximum time for the startup
+  endpoint to respond. The wait command requires that the Proxy be started in
+  another process with the HTTP health check enabled. If an alternate health
+  check port or address is used, as in:
+
+  ./cloud-sql-proxy <INSTANCE_CONNECTION_NAME> \
+    --http-address 0.0.0.0 \
+    --http-port 9191
+
+  Then the wait command must also be told to use the same custom values:
+
+  ./cloud-sql-proxy wait \
+    --http-address 0.0.0.0 \
+    --http-port 9191
+
+  By default the wait command will wait 30 seconds. To alter this value,
+  use:
+
+  ./cloud-sql-proxy wait --max 10s
+
+
+```
+cloud-sql-proxy wait [flags]
+```
+
+### Options
+
+```
+  -h, --help           help for wait
+  -m, --max duration   maximum amount of time to wait for startup (default 30s)
+```
+
+### Options inherited from parent commands
+
+```
+      --http-address string   Address for Prometheus and health check server (default "localhost")
+      --http-port string      Port for Prometheus and health check server (default "9090")
