gcloud compute disks start-async-replication

NAME

gcloud compute disks start-async-replication - start asynchronous replication on a Compute Engine persistent disk

SYNOPSIS

gcloud compute disks start-async-replication DISK_NAME --secondary-disk=SECONDARY_DISK (--region=REGION     | --zone=ZONE) (--secondary-disk-region=SECONDARY_DISK_REGION     | --secondary-disk-zone=SECONDARY_DISK_ZONE) [--secondary-disk-project=SECONDARY_DISK_PROJECT] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]

DESCRIPTION

gcloud compute disks start-async-replication starts async replication on a Compute Engine persistent disk. This command must be invoked on the primary disk and --secondary-disk must be provided.

EXAMPLES

Start replication from the primary disk 'my-disk-1' in zone us-east1-a to the secondary disk 'my-disk-2' in zone us-west1-a:

gcloud compute disks start-async-replication my-disk-1 --zone=us-east1-a --secondary-disk=my-disk-2 --secondary-disk-zone=us-west1-a

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

DISK_NAME

Name of the disk to operate on.

REQUIRED FLAGS

--secondary-disk=SECONDARY_DISK

Secondary disk for asynchronous replication. This flag is required when starting replication.

Exactly one of these must be specified:

--region=REGION

Region of the disk to operate on. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/region property:

gcloud config set compute/region REGION

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

gcloud compute regions list

To unset the property, run:

gcloud config unset compute/region

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION.

--zone=ZONE

Zone of the disk to operate on. 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.

Exactly one of these must be specified:

--secondary-disk-region=SECONDARY_DISK_REGION

Region of the secondary disk for asynchronous replication. Overrides the default compute/region property value for this command invocation.

--secondary-disk-zone=SECONDARY_DISK_ZONE

Zone of the secondary disk for asynchronous replication. Overrides the default compute/zone property value for this command invocation.

SECONDARY DISK FLAGS

--secondary-disk-project=SECONDARY_DISK_PROJECT

Project of the secondary disk for asynchronous replication.

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.
