NAME

gcloud compute instance-groups managed instance-configs delete - delete per-instance configs from a managed instance group

SYNOPSIS

gcloud compute instance-groups managed instance-configs delete NAME --instances=INSTANCE,[INSTANCE,...] [--instance-update-minimal-action=INSTANCE_UPDATE_MINIMAL_ACTION; default="none"] [--no-update-instance] [--region=REGION | --zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

gcloud compute instance-groups managed instance-configs delete deletes one or more per-instance configs from a Google Compute Engine managed instance group.

Changes are applied immediately to the corresponding instances, by performing the necessary action (for example, REFRESH), unless overridden by providing the --no-update-instance flag.

EXAMPLES

To delete the per-instance config from my-instance, run:

$ gcloud compute instance-groups managed instance-configs delete \ my-group --region=europe-west4 --instances=my-instance

This removes all metadata and detaches all disks that were defined in the per-instance config (except for disks that are also defined in the instance template, which remain attached).

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

NAME

Name of the managed instance group to delete.

REQUIRED FLAGS

--instances=INSTANCE,[INSTANCE,...]

Names of instances to delete instance-configs from.

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--instance-update-minimal-action=INSTANCE_UPDATE_MINIMAL_ACTION; default="none"

Perform at least this action on the instance while updating, if --update-instance is set to true. INSTANCE_UPDATE_MINIMAL_ACTION must be one of:

none

No action

refresh

Apply the new configuration without stopping VMs, if possible. For example, use ``refresh`` to apply changes that only affect metadata or additional disks.

restart

Apply the new configuration without replacing VMs, if possible. For example, stopping VMs and starting them again is sufficient to apply changes to machine type.

replace

Replace old VMs according to the --replacement-method flag.

--update-instance

Apply the configuration changes immediately to the instance. If you disable this flag, the managed instance group will apply the configuration update when you next recreate or update the instance.

Example: say you have an instance with a disk attached to it and you created a stateful configuration for the disk. If you decide to delete the stateful configuration for the disk and you provide this flag, the group immediately refreshes the instance and removes the stateful configuration for the disk. Similarly if you have attached a new disk or changed its definition, with this flag the group immediately refreshes the instance with the new configuration.

Enabled by default, use --no-update-instance to disable.

At most one of these can be specified:
--region=REGION

Region of the managed instance group to delete. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

$ gcloud compute regions list

Overrides the default compute/region property value for this command invocation.

--zone=ZONE

Zone of the managed instance group to delete. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only).

A list of zones can be fetched by running:

$ gcloud compute zones list

Overrides the default compute/zone property value for this command invocation.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
