NAME
    gcloud alpha compute disks start-async-replication - start asynchronous
        replication on a Compute Engine persistent disk

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud alpha compute disks start-async-replication DISK_NAME
        --secondary-disk=SECONDARY_DISK (--region=REGION | --zone=ZONE)
        (--secondary-disk-region=SECONDARY_DISK_REGION
          | --secondary-disk-zone=SECONDARY_DISK_ZONE)
        [--secondary-disk-project=SECONDARY_DISK_PROJECT]
        [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) gcloud alpha compute disks start-async-replication starts async
    replication on a Compute Engine persistent disk. This command must be
    invoked on the primary disk and --secondary-disk must be provided.

EXAMPLES
    Start replication from the primary disk 'my-disk-1' in zone us-east1-a to
    the secondary disk 'my-disk-2' in zone us-west1-a:

        $ gcloud alpha compute disks start-async-replication my-disk-1 \
            --zone=us-east1-a --secondary-disk=my-disk-2 \
            --secondary-disk-zone=us-west1-a

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     DISK_NAME
        Name of the disk to operate on.

REQUIRED FLAGS
     --secondary-disk=SECONDARY_DISK
        Secondary disk for asynchronous replication. This flag is required when
        starting replication.

     Exactly one of these must be specified:

       --region=REGION
          Region of the disk to operate on. If not specified, you might be
          prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

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

              $ gcloud config set compute/region REGION

          A list of regions can be fetched by running:

              $ gcloud compute regions list

          To unset the property, run:

              $ gcloud config unset compute/region

          Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable
          CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION.

       --zone=ZONE
          Zone of the disk to operate on. If not specified and the compute/zone
          property isn't set, you might be prompted to select a zone
          (interactive mode only).

          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.

     Exactly one of these must be specified:

       --secondary-disk-region=SECONDARY_DISK_REGION
          Region of the secondary disk for asynchronous replication. Overrides
          the default compute/region property value for this command
          invocation.

       --secondary-disk-zone=SECONDARY_DISK_ZONE
          Zone of the secondary disk for asynchronous replication. Overrides
          the default compute/zone property value for this command invocation.

SECONDARY DISK FLAGS
     --secondary-disk-project=SECONDARY_DISK_PROJECT
        Project of the secondary disk for asynchronous replication.

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. These variants are also available:

        $ gcloud compute disks start-async-replication

        $ gcloud beta compute disks start-async-replication
