DESCRIPTION

(BETA) Update a Compute Engine managed instance group.

gcloud beta compute instance-groups managed update allows you to specify or modify the description and group policies for an existing managed instance group, including the group's update policy and optional autohealing and stateful policies

The group's update policy defines how an updated VM configuration is applied to existing VMs in the group. For more information, see [Applying new configurations] (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instance-groups/updating-migs) to VMs in a MIG.

A stateful policy defines which resources should be preserved across the group. When instances in the group are recreated, stateful resources are preserved. This command allows you to update stateful resources, specifically to add or remove stateful disks.

When updating the autohealing policy, you can specify the health check, initial delay, or both. If either field is unspecified, its value won't be modified. If --health-check is specified, the health check monitors the health of your application. Whenever the health check signal for an instance becomes UNHEALTHY, the autohealer recreates the instance.

If no health check exists, instance autohealing is triggered only by instance status: if an instance is not RUNNING, the group recreates it.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

NAME

Name of the managed instance group to update.

FLAGS

--default-action-on-vm-failure=ACTION_ON_VM_FAILURE

Specifies the action that a MIG performs on a failed or an unhealthy VM. A VM is marked as unhealthy when the application running on that VM fails a health check. By default, the value of the flag is set to repair. ACTION_ON_VM_FAILURE must be one of:

do-nothing

MIG does not repair a failed or an unhealthy VM.

repair

MIG automatically repairs a failed or an unhealthy VM.

--description=DESCRIPTION

An optional description for this group. To clear the description, set the value to an empty string.

--[no-]force-update-on-repair

Specifies whether to apply the group's latest configuration when repairing a VM. If you updated the group's instance template or per-instance configurations after the VM was created, then these changes are applied when VM is repaired. If this flag is disabled with -no-force-update-on-repair, then updates are applied in accordance with the group's update policy type. By default, this flag is disabled. Use --force-update-on-repair to enable and --no-force-update-on-repair to disable.

--instance-redistribution-type=TYPE

Specifies the type of the instance redistribution policy. An instance redistribution type lets you enable or disable automatic instance redistribution across zones to meet the group's target distribution shape.

An instance redistribution type can be specified only for a non-autoscaled regional managed instance group. By default it is set to proactive.

TYPE must be one of:

none

The managed instance group does not redistribute instances across zones.

proactive

The managed instance group proactively redistributes instances to meet its target distribution.

--instance-selection=name=NAME,machine-type=MACHINE_TYPE[,machine-type=MACHINE_TYPE…][,rank=RANK]

Named selection of machine types with an optional rank. For example, --instance-selection="name=instance-selection-1,machine-type=e2-standard-8,machine-type=t2d-standard-8,rank=0"

--instance-selection-machine-types=[MACHINE_TYPE,…]

Machine types that are used to create VMs in the managed instance group. If not provided, the machine type specified in the instance template is used.

--list-managed-instances-results=MODE

Pagination behavior for the group's listManagedInstances API method. This flag does not affect the group's gcloud or console list-instances behavior. By default it is set to pageless. MODE must be one of:

pageless

Pagination is disabled for the group's listManagedInstances API method. maxResults and pageToken query parameters are ignored and all instances are returned in a single response.

paginated

Pagination is enabled for the group's listManagedInstances API method. maxResults and pageToken query parameters are respected.

--remove-instance-selections=[INSTANCE_SELECTION_NAME,…]

Remove specific instance selections from the instance flexibility policy.

--remove-instance-selections-all

Remove all instance selections from the instance flexibility policy.

--remove-stateful-disks=DEVICE_NAME,[DEVICE_NAME,…]

Remove stateful configuration for the specified disks.

--remove-stateful-external-ips=INTERFACE_NAME,[…]

Remove stateful configuration for the specified interfaces for external IPs.

--remove-stateful-internal-ips=INTERFACE_NAME,[…]

Remove stateful configuration for the specified interfaces for internal IPs.

--size=SIZE

Target number of running instances in managed instance group.

--standby-policy-initial-delay=STANDBY_POLICY_INITIAL_DELAY

Specifies the number of seconds that the MIG should wait before suspending or stopping a VM. The initial delay gives the initialization script the time to prepare your VM for a quick scale out.

--standby-policy-mode=STANDBY_POLICY_MODE

Defines how a MIG resumes or starts VMs from a standby pool when the group scales out. The default mode is manual. STANDBY_POLICY_MODE must be one of:

manual

MIG does not automatically resume or start VMs in the standby pool when the group scales out.

scale-out-pool

MIG automatically resumes or starts VMs in the standby pool when the group scales out, and replenishes the standby pool afterwards.

--stateful-disk=[auto-delete=AUTO-DELETE],[device-name=DEVICE-NAME]

Disks considered stateful by the instance group. Managed instance groups preserve and reattach stateful disks on VM autohealing, update, and recreate events.

Use this argument multiple times to update more disks.

If a stateful disk with the given device name already exists in the current instance configuration, its properties will be replaced by the newly provided ones. Otherwise, a new stateful disk definition will be added to the instance configuration.

device-name

(Required) Device name of the disk to mark stateful.

auto-delete

(Optional) Specifies the auto deletion policy of the stateful disk. The following options are available:

• never: (Default) Never delete this disk. Instead, detach the disk when its instance is deleted.
• on-permanent-instance-deletion: Delete the stateful disk when the instance that it's attached to is permanently deleted from the group; for example, when the instance is deleted manually or when the group size is decreased.

--stateful-external-ip=[enabled],[auto-delete=AUTO-DELETE],[interface-name=INTERFACE-NAME]

Managed instance groups preserve stateful IPs on VM autohealing, update, and recreate events.

Use this argument multiple times to update more IPs.

If a stateful external IP with the given interface name already exists in the current instance configuration, its properties are replaced by the newly provided ones. Otherwise, a new stateful external IP definition is added to the instance configuration.

At least one of the following is required:

enabled

Marks the IP address as stateful. The network interface named nic0 is assumed by default when interface-name is not specified. This flag can be omitted when interface-name is provided explicitly.

interface-name

Marks the IP address from this network interface as stateful. This flag can be omitted when enabled is provided. Additional arguments:

auto-delete

(Optional) Prescribes what should happen to an associated static Address resource when a VM instance is permanently deleted. Regardless of the value of the delete rule, stateful IP addresses are always preserved on instance autohealing, update, and recreation operations. The following options are available:

• never: (Default) Never delete the static IP address. Instead, unassign the address when its instance is permanently deleted and keep the address reserved.
• on-permanent-instance-deletion: Delete the static IP address reservation when the instance that it's assigned to is permanently deleted from the instance group; for example, when the instance is deleted manually or when the group size is decreased.

--stateful-internal-ip=[enabled],[auto-delete=AUTO-DELETE],[interface-name=INTERFACE-NAME]

Managed instance groups preserve stateful IPs on VM autohealing, update, and recreate events.

Use this argument multiple times to update more IPs.

If a stateful internal IP with the given interface name already exists in the current instance configuration, its properties are replaced by the newly provided ones. Otherwise, a new stateful internal IP definition is added to the instance configuration.

At least one of the following is required:

enabled

Marks the IP address as stateful. The network interface named nic0 is assumed by default when interface-name is not specified. This flag can be omitted when interface-name is provided explicitly.

interface-name

Marks the IP address from this network interface as stateful. This flag can be omitted when enabled is provided. Additional arguments:

auto-delete

(Optional) Prescribes what should happen to an associated static Address resource when a VM instance is permanently deleted. Regardless of the value of the delete rule, stateful IP addresses are always preserved on instance autohealing, update, and recreation operations. The following options are available:

• never: (Default) Never delete the static IP address. Instead, unassign the address when its instance is permanently deleted and keep the address reserved.
• on-permanent-instance-deletion: Delete the static IP address reservation when the instance that it's assigned to is permanently deleted from the instance group; for example, when the instance is deleted manually or when the group size is decreased.

--stopped-size=STOPPED_SIZE

Specifies the target size of stopped VMs in the group.

--suspended-size=SUSPENDED_SIZE

Specifies the target size of suspended VMs in the group.

--target-distribution-shape=SHAPE

Specifies how a regional managed instance group distributes its instances across zones within the region. The default shape is even. SHAPE must be one of:

any

The group picks zones for creating VM instances to fulfill the requested number of VMs within present resource constraints and to maximize utilization of unused zonal reservations. Recommended for batch workloads that do not require high availability.

any-single-zone

The group schedules all instances within a single zone. The zone is chosen based on hardware support, current resources availability, and matching reservations. The group might not be able to create the requested number of VMs in case of zonal resource availability constraints. Recommended for workloads requiring extensive communication between VMs.

balanced

The group prioritizes acquisition of resources, scheduling VMs in zones where resources are available while distributing VMs as evenly as possible across selected zones to minimize the impact of zonal failure. Recommended for highly available serving or batch workloads that do not require autoscaling.

even

The group schedules VM instance creation and deletion to achieve and maintain an even number of managed instances across the selected zones. The distribution is even when the number of managed instances does not differ by more than 1 between any two zones. Recommended for highly available serving workloads.

At most one of these can be specified:

--clear-autohealing

Clears all autohealing policy fields for the managed instance group.

--initial-delay=INITIAL_DELAY

Specifies the number of seconds that a new VM takes to initialize and run its startup script. During a VM's initial delay period, the MIG ignores unsuccessful health checks because the VM might be in the startup process. This prevents the MIG from prematurely recreating a VM. If the health check receives a healthy response during the initial delay, it indicates that the startup process is complete and the VM is ready. The value of initial delay must be between 0 and 3600 seconds. The default value is 0. See $ gcloud topic datetimes for information on duration formats.

At most one of these can be specified:

--health-check=HEALTH_CHECK

Name of the health check to operate on.

--http-health-check=HTTP_HEALTH_CHECK

(DEPRECATED) HTTP health check object used for autohealing instances in this group.

HttpHealthCheck is deprecated. Use --health-check instead.

--https-health-check=HTTPS_HEALTH_CHECK

(DEPRECATED) HTTPS health check object used for autohealing instances in this group.

HttpsHealthCheck is deprecated. Use --health-check instead.

At most one of these can be specified:

--region=REGION

Region of the managed instance group to update. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

gcloud compute regions list

Overrides the default compute/region property value for this command invocation.

--zone=ZONE

Zone of the managed instance group to update. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only).

A list of zones can be fetched by running:

gcloud compute zones list

Overrides the default compute/zone property value for this command invocation.

Parameters for setting update policy for this managed instance group.

--update-policy-max-surge=MAX_SURGE

Maximum additional number of VMs that can be created during the update process. This can be a fixed number (e.g. 5) or a percentage of size to the managed instance group (e.g. 10%).

--update-policy-max-unavailable=MAX_UNAVAILABLE

Maximum number of VMs that can be unavailable during the update process. This can be a fixed number (e.g. 5) or a percentage of size to the managed instance group (e.g. 10%). Defaults to the number of zones in which the managed instance group operates.

--update-policy-min-ready=MIN_READY

Minimum time for which a newly created VM should be ready to be considered available. For example 10s for 10 seconds. See $ gcloud topic datetimes for information on duration formats.

--update-policy-minimal-action=UPDATE_POLICY_MINIMAL_ACTION

Use this flag to minimize disruption as much as possible or to apply a more disruptive action than is strictly necessary. The MIG performs at least this action on each VM while updating. If the update requires a more disruptive action than the one specified here, then the more disruptive action is performed. UPDATE_POLICY_MINIMAL_ACTION must be one of:

none

No action

refresh

Apply the new configuration without stopping VMs, if possible. For example, use ``refresh`` to apply changes that only affect metadata or additional disks.

restart

Apply the new configuration without replacing VMs, if possible. For example, stopping VMs and starting them again is sufficient to apply changes to machine type.

replace

Replace old VMs according to the --update-policy-replacement-method flag.

--update-policy-most-disruptive-action=UPDATE_POLICY_MOST_DISRUPTIVE_ACTION

Use this flag to prevent an update if it requires more disruption than you can afford. At most, the MIG performs the specified action on each VM while updating. If the update requires a more disruptive action than the one specified here, then the update fails and no changes are made. UPDATE_POLICY_MOST_DISRUPTIVE_ACTION must be one of:

none

No action

refresh

Apply the new configuration without stopping VMs, if possible. For example, use ``refresh`` to apply changes that only affect metadata or additional disks.

restart

Apply the new configuration without replacing VMs, if possible. For example, stopping VMs and starting them again is sufficient to apply changes to machine type.

replace

Replace old VMs according to the --update-policy-replacement-method flag.

--update-policy-replacement-method=UPDATE_POLICY_REPLACEMENT_METHOD

Type of replacement method. Specifies what action will be taken to update VMs. UPDATE_POLICY_REPLACEMENT_METHOD must be one of:

recreate

Recreate VMs and preserve the VM names. The VM IDs and creation timestamps might change.

substitute

Delete old VMs and create VMs with new names.

--update-policy-type=UPDATE_TYPE

Specifies the type of update process. You can specify either ``proactive`` so that the managed instance group proactively executes actions in order to bring VMs to their target versions or ``opportunistic`` so that no action is proactively executed but the update will be performed as part of other actions. UPDATE_TYPE must be one of:

opportunistic

Do not proactively replace VMs. Create new VMs and delete old ones on resizes of the group and when you target specific VMs to be updated or recreated.

proactive

Replace VMs proactively.
