gcloud_compute_instances_move (1)
NAME
- gcloud compute instances move - move an instance and its attached persistent disks between zones
SYNOPSIS
-
gcloud compute instances move INSTANCE_NAME --destination-zone=DESTINATION_ZONE [--async] [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute instances move facilitates moving a Google Compute Engine
For example, running:
-
$ gcloud compute instances move example-instance-1 \
--zone us-central1-b --destination-zone us-central1-f
will move the instance called example-instance-1 with its all attached persistent disks, currently running in us-central1-b, to us-central1-f.
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
- INSTANCE_NAME
-
Name of the instance to operate on.
REQUIRED FLAGS
-
- --destination-zone=DESTINATION_ZONE
-
The zone to move the instance to.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
- --async
-
Display information about the operation in progress, without waiting for the
operation to complete.
- --zone=ZONE
-
Zone of the instance to operate on. If not specified, you may be prompted to
select a zone. gcloud will attempt to identify the zone by searching for
resources in your project. If the zone cannot be determined, you will then be
prompted with all Google Cloud Platform zones.
To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you 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: --account, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity. Run $ gcloud help for details.
NOTES
These variants are also available:
- $ gcloud alpha compute instances move $ gcloud beta compute instances move
