bool
Specifies whether the disk will be
auto-deleted when the instance is deleted (but
not when the disk is detached from the
instance).
This field is a member of oneof_ _auto_delete.
custom_image
str
The custom source image to be used to restore
this disk when instantiating this instance
template.
This field is a member of oneof_ _custom_image.
device_name
str
Specifies the device name of the disk to
which the configurations apply to.
This field is a member of oneof_ _device_name.
instantiate_from
str
Specifies whether to include the disk and
what image to use. Possible values are: -
source-image: to use the same image that was
used to create the source instance's
corresponding disk. Applicable to the boot disk
and additional read-write disks. -
source-image-family: to use the same image
family that was used to create the source
instance's corresponding disk. Applicable to the
boot disk and additional read-write disks. -
custom-image: to use a user-provided image url
for disk creation. Applicable to the boot disk
and additional read-write disks. -
attach-read-only: to attach a read-only disk.
Applicable to read-only disks. - do-not-include:
to exclude a disk from the template. Applicable
to additional read-write disks, local SSDs, and
read-only disks. Check the InstantiateFrom enum
for the list of possible values.
This field is a member of oneof_ _instantiate_from.
