NAME
gcloud compute instances delete - delete Compute Engine virtual machine
instances
SYNOPSIS
gcloud compute instances delete INSTANCE_NAMES [INSTANCE_NAMES ...]
[--zone=ZONE] [--delete-disks=DISK_TYPE | --keep-disks=DISK_TYPE]
[GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]
DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute instances delete deletes one or more Compute Engine virtual
machine instances.
EXAMPLES
To delete an instance called 'instance-1' in the zone 'us-central-2-a',
run:
$ gcloud compute instances delete instance-1 --zone=us-central2-a
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
INSTANCE_NAMES [INSTANCE_NAMES ...]
Names of the instances to delete. 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
--zone=ZONE
Zone of the instances to delete. 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.
At most one of these can be specified:
--delete-disks=DISK_TYPE
The types of disks to delete with instance deletion regardless of the
disks' auto-delete configuration. When this flag is provided, the
auto-delete bits on the attached disks are modified accordingly
before the instance deletion requests are issued. For more
information on disk auto-deletion, see
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks#updateautodelete.
DISK_TYPE must be one of:
all
All disk types.
boot
The first partition is reserved for the root filesystem.
data
A non-boot disk.
--keep-disks=DISK_TYPE
The types of disks to not delete with instance deletion regardless of
the disks' auto-delete configuration. When this flag is provided, the
auto-delete bits on the attached disks are modified accordingly
before the instance deletion requests are issued. For more
information on disk auto-deletion, see
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks#updateautodelete.
DISK_TYPE must be one of:
all
All disk types.
boot
The first partition is reserved for the root filesystem.
data
A non-boot disk.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
