GCLOUD COMPUTE INSTANCES ATTACH-DISK(1)

NAME

gcloud_compute_instances_attach-disk - attach a disk to an instance

SYNOPSIS

gcloud compute instances attach-disk INSTANCE [--device-name DEVICE_NAME] --disk DISK [--format FORMAT] [--help] [--mode MODE; default="rw"] [--project PROJECT_ID] [--quiet, -q] [--zone ZONE] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

gcloud compute instances attach-disk is used to attach a disk to an instance. For example, $ gcloud compute instances attach-disk example-instance --disk DISK \ --zone us-central1-a attaches the disk named DISK to the instance named example-instance in zone us-central1-a.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

INSTANCE The name of the instance to attach the disk to.

FLAGS

--device-name DEVICE_NAME An optional name that indicates the disk name the guest operating system will see. --disk DISK The name of the disk to attach to the instance. --mode MODE; default="rw" Specifies the mode of the disk. Supported options are ro for read-only and rw for read-write. If omitted, rw is used as a default. It is an error to attach a disk in read-write mode to more than one instance. --zone ZONE The zone of the instance to attach a disk to. If not specified, you will be prompted to select a zone. 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 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. GLOBAL FLAGS --format FORMAT Specify a format for printed output. By default, a command-specific human-friendly output format is used. Setting this flag to one of the available options will serialize the result of the command in the chosen format and print it to stdout. Supported formats are: json, text, yaml. --help Display detailed help. --project PROJECT_ID The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation. If omitted then the current project is assumed. --quiet, -q Disable all interactive prompts when running gcloud commands. If input is required, defaults will be used, or an error will be raised. -h Print a summary help and exit.
