NAME

gcloud alpha compute instances perform-maintenance - perform maintenance of Google Compute Engine instance

SYNOPSIS

gcloud alpha compute instances perform-maintenance INSTANCE_NAME [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

(ALPHA) Perform maintenance of Google Compute Engine instance.

EXAMPLES

To perform a customer trigged maintenance on an instance named test-instance located in zone us-east1-d, run:

$ gcloud alpha compute instances perform-maintenance test-instance \ --zone=us-east1-d

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

INSTANCE_NAME

Name of the instance to operate on. For details on valid instance names, refer to the criteria documented under the field 'name' at: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/rest/v1/instances

FLAGS

--zone=ZONE

Zone of the instance to operate on. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only). gcloud attempts to identify the appropriate zone by searching for resources in your currently active project. If the zone cannot be determined, gcloud prompts you for a selection with all available Google Cloud Platform zones.

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, the user can set the compute/zone property:

$ gcloud config set compute/zone ZONE

A list of zones can be fetched by running:

$ gcloud compute zones list

To unset the property, run:

$ gcloud config unset compute/zone

Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS

These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

Run $ gcloud help for details.

NOTES

This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist.
