|
|
|
|
persistent disks between zones

SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|

DESCRIPTION

|
|
|
(BETA) (DEPRECATED) This command is deprecated. Please see
|
|
|
|
|
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/moving-instance-across-zones
|
|
|
|
|
for an alternative method.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gcloud beta compute instances move moves a Compute Engine virtual machine
|
|
|
|
|
from one zone to another. Moving a virtual machine might incur downtime if
|
|
|
|
|
the guest OS must be shut down in order to quiesce disk volumes prior to
|
|
|
|
|
snapshotting.

|
|
|
|
For example, running the following command moves the instance called
|
|
|
|
|
example-instance-1 with its attached persistent disks, currently running in
|
|
|
|
|
us-central1-b, to us-central1-f.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ gcloud compute instances move example-instance-1 \
|
|
|
|
|
--zone=us-central1-b --destination-zone=us-central1-f
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: Moving VMs or disks by using the gcloud beta compute instances move
|
|
|
|
|
command might cause unexpected behavior. For more information, see
|
|
|

https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/troubleshooting/known-issues#moving_vms_or_disks_using_the_moveinstance_api_or_the_causes_unexpected_behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please note that gcloud compute instances move does not yet support
|
|
|
|
|
instances which have regional persistent disks attached. Please see
|
|
|
|
|
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/regional-persistent-disk for
|
|
|
|
|
more details.

EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
|
To move instance-1 from us-central-a to europe-west1-d, run:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ gcloud beta compute instances move instance-1 \
|
|
|
|
|
--zone=us-central1-a --destination-zone=europe-west1-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
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
REQUIRED FLAGS
|
|
|
|
|
--destination-zone=DESTINATION_ZONE
|
|
|
|
|
The zone to move the instance to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONAL FLAGS
|
|
|
|
|
--async
|
|
|
|
|
Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to
|
|
|
|
|
complete.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
--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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
