NAME
gcloud compute instances tail-serial-port-output - periodically fetch new
output from a virtual machine instance's serial port and display it as
it becomes available
SYNOPSIS
gcloud compute instances tail-serial-port-output INSTANCE_NAME
[--port=PORT] [--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute instances tail-serial-port-output is used to tail the output
from a Compute Engine virtual machine instance's serial port. The serial
port output from the instance will be printed to standard output. This
information can be useful for diagnostic purposes.
EXAMPLES
To fetch new output from instance's serial port and display it, run:
$ gcloud compute instances tail-serial-port-output \
example-instance --zone=us-central1-b
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
FLAGS
--port=PORT
Instances can support up to four serial port outputs, numbered 1
through 4. By default, this command will return the output of the first
serial port. Setting this flag will return the output of the requested
serial port.
--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.
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
