NAME gcloud compute target-instances update - update a Compute Engine target instance SYNOPSIS gcloud compute target-instances update NAME [--security-policy=SECURITY_POLICY] [--security-policy-region=SECURITY_POLICY_REGION] [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...] DESCRIPTION gcloud compute target-instances update updates a Compute Engine target instance. EXAMPLES To update the security policy run this: $ gcloud compute target-instances update TARGET_INSTANCE \ --security-policy='my-policy' POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS NAME Name of the target instance to update. FLAGS --security-policy=SECURITY_POLICY The security policy that will be set for this target instance. To remove the policy from this target instance set the policy to an empty string. --security-policy-region=SECURITY_POLICY_REGION Region of the security policy to operate on. Overrides the default compute/region property value for this command invocation. --zone=ZONE Zone of the target instance to update. 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. 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 These variants are also available: $ gcloud alpha compute target-instances update $ gcloud beta compute target-instances update
