- DESCRIPTION
-
$gcloud compute instances set-scheduling
is used to update scheduling options for VM instances. You can only call this method on a VM instance that is stopped (a VM instance in aTERMINATED
state). - EXAMPLES
-
To set instance to be terminated during maintenance, run:
gcloud compute instances set-scheduling example-instance --maintenance-policy=TERMINATE --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
-
--clear-min-node-cpu
- Removes the min-node-cpu field from the instance. If specified, the instance min-node-cpu will be cleared. The instance will not be overcommitted and utilize the full CPU count assigned.
--local-ssd-recovery-timeout
=LOCAL_SSD_RECOVERY_TIMEOUT
- Specifies the maximum amount of time a Local Ssd Vm should wait while recovery of the Local Ssd state is attempted. Its value should be in between 0 and 168 hours with hour granularity and the default value being 1 hour.
--maintenance-policy
=MAINTENANCE_POLICY
-
Specifies the behavior of the VMs when their host machines undergo maintenance.
The default is MIGRATE. For more information, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/host-maintenance-options.
MAINTENANCE_POLICY
must be one of:MIGRATE
- The instances should be migrated to a new host. This will temporarily impact the performance of instances during a migration event.
TERMINATE
- The instances should be terminated.
--min-node-cpu
=MIN_NODE_CPU
- Minimum number of virtual CPUs this instance will consume when running on a sole-tenant node.
--[no-]preemptible
-
If provided, instances will be preemptible and time-limited. Instances might be
preempted to free up resources for standard VM instances, and will only be able
to run for a limited amount of time. Preemptible instances can not be restarted
and will not migrate. Use
--preemptible
to enable and--no-preemptible
to disable. --provisioning-model
=PROVISIONING_MODEL
-
Specifies provisioning model, which determines price, obtainability, and runtime
for the VM instance.
PROVISIONING_MODEL
must be one of:SPOT
- Spot VMs are spare capacity; Spot VMs are discounted to have much lower prices than standard VMs but have no guaranteed runtime. Spot VMs are the new version of preemptible VM instances, except Spot VMs do not have a 24-hour maximum runtime.
STANDARD
- Default. Standard provisioning model for VM instances, which has user-controlled runtime but no Spot discounts.
--[no-]restart-on-failure
-
The instances will be restarted if they are terminated by Compute Engine. This
does not affect terminations performed by the user. This option is mutually
exclusive with --preemptible. Use
--restart-on-failure
to enable and--no-restart-on-failure
to disable. --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
property:compute/zone
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
-
Discard Local SSDs At Termination Timestamp
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-discard-local-ssds-at-termination-timestamp
- Removes the discard-local-ssds-at-termination-timestamp field from the scheduling options.
--discard-local-ssds-at-termination-timestamp
=DISCARD_LOCAL_SSDS_AT_TERMINATION_TIMESTAMP
-
Required to be set to
true
and only allowed for VMs that have one or more local SSDs, use --instance-termination-action=STOP, and use either --max-run-duration or --termination-time.This flag indicates the value that you want Compute Engine to use for the
--discard-local-ssd
flag in the automaticgcloud compute instances stop
command. This flag only supports thetrue
value, which discards local SSD data when automatically stopping this VM during itsterminationTimestamp
.For more information about the
--discard-local-ssd
flag, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/local-ssd#stop_instance.
-
Instance Termination Action
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-instance-termination-action
- Disables the termination action for this VM if allowed OR sets termination action to the default value. Depending on a VM's availability settings, a termination action is either required or not allowed. This flag is required when you are updating a VM such that it's previously specified termination action is no longer allowed. If you use this flag when a VM requires a termination action, it's termination action is just set to the default value (stop).
--instance-termination-action
=INSTANCE_TERMINATION_ACTION
-
Specifies the termination action that will be taken upon VM preemption
(--provisioning-model=SPOT) or automatic instance termination
(--max-run-duration or --termination-time).
INSTANCE_TERMINATION_ACTION
must be one of:DELETE
- Permanently delete the VM.
STOP
- Default only for Spot VMs. Stop the VM without preserving memory. The VM can be restarted later.
-
Max Run Duration
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-max-run-duration
- Removes the max-run-duration field from the scheduling options.
--max-run-duration
=MAX_RUN_DURATION
-
Limits how long this VM instance can run, specified as a duration relative to
the last time when the VM began running. Format the duration, MAX_RUN_DURATION,
as the number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds followed by d, h, m, and s
respectively. For example, specify
30m
for a duration of 30 minutes or specify1d2h3m4s
for a duration of 1 day, 2 hours, 3 minutes, and 4 seconds. Alternatively, to specify a timestamp, use --termination-time instead.If neither --max-run-duration nor --termination-time is specified (default), the VM instance runs until prompted by a user action or system event. If either is specified, the VM instance is scheduled to be automatically terminated at the VM's termination timestamp (
terminationTimestamp
) using the action specified by --instance-termination-action.Note: The
terminationTimestamp
is removed whenever the VM is stopped or suspended and redefined whenever the VM is rerun. For --max-run-duration specifically, theterminationTimestamp
is the sum of MAX_RUN_DURATION and the time when the VM last entered theRUNNING
state, which changes whenever the VM is rerun.
-
Sole Tenancy.
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-node-affinities
- Removes the node affinities field from the instance. If specified, the instance node settings will be cleared. The instance will not be scheduled onto a sole-tenant node.
--node
=NODE
- The name of the node to schedule this instance on.
--node-affinity-file
=PATH_TO_FILE
-
The JSON/YAML file containing the configuration of desired nodes onto which this
instance could be scheduled. These rules filter the nodes according to their
node affinity labels. A node's affinity labels come from the node template of
the group the node is in.
The file should contain a list of a JSON/YAML objects. For an example, see https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/nodes/provisioning-sole-tenant-vms#configure_node_affinity_labels. The following list describes the fields:
key
- Corresponds to the node affinity label keys of the Node resource.
operator
-
Specifies the node selection type. Must be one of:
IN
: Requires Compute Engine to seek for matched nodes.NOT_IN
: Requires Compute Engine to avoid certain nodes. values
-
Optional. A list of values which correspond to the node affinity label values of
the Node resource.
Use a full or relative path to a local file containing the value of node_affinity_file.
--node-group
=NODE_GROUP
- The name of the node group to schedule this instance on.
-
Termination Time
At most one of these can be specified:
--clear-termination-time
- Removes the termination-time field from the scheduling options.
--termination-time
=TERMINATION_TIME
-
Limits how long this VM instance can run, specified as a time. Format the time,
TERMINATION_TIME, as a RFC 3339 timestamp. For more information, see https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339.
Alternatively, to specify a duration, use --max-run-duration instead.
If neither --termination-time nor --max-run-duration is specified (default), the VM instance runs until prompted by a user action or system event. If either is specified, the VM instance is scheduled to be automatically terminated at the VM's termination timestamp (
terminationTimestamp
) using the action specified by --instance-termination-action.Note: The
terminationTimestamp
is removed whenever the VM is stopped or suspended and redefined whenever the VM is rerun. For --termination-time specifically, theterminationTimestamp
remains the same whenever the VM is rerun, but any requests to rerun the VM fail if the specified timestamp is in the past.
