NAME
gcloud compute instances set-name - set the name of a Compute Engine
virtual machine
SYNOPSIS
gcloud compute instances set-name INSTANCE_NAME --new-name=NEW_NAME
[--zone=ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute instances set-name lets you change the name of a virtual
machine.
EXAMPLES
To change the name of instance-1 to instance-2:
$ gcloud compute instances set-name instance-1 --new-name=instance-2
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
--new-name=NEW_NAME
Specifies the new name of the instance.
OPTIONAL FLAGS
--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,

--help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet,
--trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.
Run $ gcloud help for details.
