- DESCRIPTION
-
gcloud compute instances update
updates labels and requested CPU Platform for a Compute Engine virtual machine. - EXAMPLES
-
To modify the instance 'example-instance' in 'us-central1-a' by adding labels
'k0', with value 'value1' and label 'k1' with value 'value2' and removing labels
with key 'k3', run:
gcloud compute instances update example-instance --zone=us-central1-a --update-labels=k0=value1,k1=value2 --remove-labels=k3
Labels can be used to identify the instance. To list instances with the 'k1:value2' label, run:
gcloud compute instances list --filter='labels.k1:value2'
To list only the labels when describing a resource, use --format to filter the result:
gcloud compute instances describe example-instance --format="default(labels)"
- POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
INSTANCE_NAME
- Name of the instance to update. 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
-
--[no-]deletion-protection
-
Enables deletion protection for the instance. Use
--deletion-protection
to enable and--no-deletion-protection
to disable. --[no-]enable-display-device
-
Enable a display device on VM instances. Use
--enable-display-device
to enable and--no-enable-display-device
to disable. --min-cpu-platform
=PLATFORM
-
When specified, the VM will be scheduled on host with specified CPU architecture
or a newer one. To list available CPU platforms in given zone, run:
gcloud compute zones describe ZONE --format="value(availableCpuPlatforms)"
Default setting is "AUTOMATIC".
CPU platform selection is available only in selected zones.
You can find more information on-line: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/specify-min-cpu-platform
--[no-]shielded-integrity-monitoring
-
Enables monitoring and attestation of the boot integrity of the instance. The
attestation is performed against the integrity policy baseline. This baseline is
initially derived from the implicitly trusted boot image when the instance is
created. This baseline can be updated by using
gcloud compute instances update --shielded-learn-integrity-policy
. On Shielded VM instances, integrity monitoring is enabled by default. For information about how to modify Shielded VM options, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/modifying-shielded-vm. For information about monitoring integrity on Shielded VM instances, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/integrity-monitoring." Changes to this setting with the update command only take effect after stopping and starting the instance. Use--shielded-integrity-monitoring
to enable and--no-shielded-integrity-monitoring
to disable. --shielded-learn-integrity-policy
- Causes the instance to re-learn the integrity policy baseline using the current instance configuration. Use this flag after any planned boot-specific changes in the instance configuration, like kernel updates or kernel driver installation.
--[no-]shielded-secure-boot
-
The instance boots with secure boot enabled. On Shielded VM instances, Secure
Boot is not enabled by default. For information about how to modify Shielded VM
options, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/modifying-shielded-vm.
Changes to this setting with the update command only take effect after stopping
and starting the instance. Use
--shielded-secure-boot
to enable and--no-shielded-secure-boot
to disable. --[no-]shielded-vtpm
-
The instance boots with the TPM (Trusted Platform Module) enabled. A TPM is a
hardware module that can be used for different security operations such as
remote attestation, encryption, and sealing of keys. On Shielded VM instances,
vTPM is enabled by default. For information about how to modify Shielded VM
options, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/modifying-shielded-vm.
Changes to this setting with the update command only take effect after stopping
and starting the instance. Use
--shielded-vtpm
to enable and--no-shielded-vtpm
to disable. --update-labels
=[KEY
=VALUE
,…]-
List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to update. If a label exists, its value is
modified. Otherwise, a new label is created.
Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (
-
), underscores (_
), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain only hyphens (-
), underscores (_
), lowercase characters, and numbers. --zone
=ZONE
-
Zone of the instance to update. 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
property:compute/zone
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
-
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-labels
-
Remove all labels. If
--update-labels
is also specified then--clear-labels
is applied first.For example, to remove all labels:
gcloud compute instances update --clear-labels
To remove all existing labels and create two new labels,
andfoo
:baz
gcloud compute instances update --clear-labels --update-labels foo=bar,baz=qux
--remove-labels
=[KEY
,…]-
List of label keys to remove. If a label does not exist it is silently ignored.
If
--update-labels
is also specified then--update-labels
is applied first.
-
Sole Tenancy.
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-node-affinities
- Removes the node affinities field from the instance. If specified, the instance node settings will be cleared. The instance will not be scheduled onto a sole-tenant node.
--node
=NODE
- The name of the node to schedule this instance on.
--node-affinity-file
=PATH_TO_FILE
-
The JSON/YAML file containing the configuration of desired nodes onto which this
instance could be scheduled. These rules filter the nodes according to their
node affinity labels. A node's affinity labels come from the node template of
the group the node is in.
The file should contain a list of a JSON/YAML objects. For an example, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/nodes/provisioning-sole-tenant-vms#configure_node_affinity_labels. The following list describes the fields:
key
- Corresponds to the node affinity label keys of the Node resource.
operator
-
Specifies the node selection type. Must be one of:
IN
: Requires Compute Engine to seek for matched nodes.NOT_IN
: Requires Compute Engine to avoid certain nodes. values
-
Optional. A list of values which correspond to the node affinity label values of
the Node resource.
Use a full or relative path to a local file containing the value of node_affinity_file.
--node-group
=NODE_GROUP
- The name of the node group to schedule this instance on.
