- DESCRIPTION
-
(ALPHA)Update a Compute Engine global VM extension policy. - EXAMPLES
-
To update a global VM extension policy, run:
gcloud alpha compute global-vm-extension-policies update test-policy-name --description="test policy" --extensions=extension1,extension2 --version=extension1=version1,extension2=version2 --config=extension1="config1",extension2="config2" --inclusion-labels=env=prod --inclusion-labels=env=preprod,workload=load-test --priority=1000 - POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
NAME- Name of the global vm extension policy to update.
- REQUIRED FLAGS
-
--extensions=EXTENSION_NAME,[…]- One or more extensions to be added to the policy.
- OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
--config=KEY=VALUE,[KEY=VALUE,…]-
A comma separated key:value list where the key is the extension name and the
value is the desired config for the given extension. The extension name must be
one of the extensions specified in the --extensions flag.
E.g. --config=filestore='filestore config',ops-agent='ops agent config'
Raises: ArgumentTypeError: If the extension name is not specified in the --extensions flag.
--config-from-file=KEY=FILE_PATH,[…]-
Same as --config except that the value for the entry will be read from a local
file. The extension name must be one of the extensions specified in the
--extensions flag.
It is an error to specify the same extension in both --config and --config-from-file.
--description=DESCRIPTION- An optional textual description for the this extension policy.
--inclusion-labels=INCLUSION_LABELS-
A list of inclusion labels to select the target VMs.
The expected format for a single selector is "key1=value1,key2=value2". A VM is selected if it has ALL the inclusion labels.
When the option is specified multiple times, it assumes a logical OR between the selectors.
For example, if the inclusion labels are ["env=prod,workload=frontend", "workload=backend"], the following VMs will be selected:
- VM1: env=prod, workload=frontend, something=else
- VM2: env=prod, workload=backend But not:
- VM3: env=prod
If not specified, ALL VMs in the project/folder will be selected.
--priority=PRIORITY; default=1000-
The priority of the policy. Lower the number, higher the priority. When two
policies tries to apply the same extension, the one with the higher priority
takes precedence. If the priority is the same, the one with the more recent
update timestamp takes precedence. When a policy is deleted, the extension would
remain installed on the VM if a lower priority policy still applies.
Range from 0 to 65535. Default is 1000.
--rollout-conflict-behavior=ROLLOUT_CONFLICT_BEHAVIOR- Specifies the behavior of the Rollout if a conflict is detected in a project during a Rollout. Default behavior is to keep the local value if conflict happens. Specifying 'overwrite' will overwrite the local value if conflict happens.
--rollout-custom-plan=ROLLOUT_CUSTOM_PLAN-
Provide the name of a custom rollout plan to be used for the rollout.
One of either --rollout-predefined-plan or --rollout-custom-plan must be specified, but not both.
--rollout-predefined-plan=ROLLOUT_PREDEFINED_PLAN-
Provide the name of a predefined rollout plan from [fast_rollout, slow_rollout]
to be used for the rollout.
One of either --rollout-predefined-plan or --rollout-custom-plan must be specified, but not both.
ROLLOUT_PREDEFINED_PLANmust be one of:fast_rollout,rollout_plan_unspecified,slow_rollout. --rollout-retry-uuid=ROLLOUT_RETRY_UUID- The UUID of the rollout retry action. Only set it if this is a retry for an existing resource.
--version=KEY=VALUE,[KEY=VALUE,…]-
A comma separated key:value list where the key is the extension name and the
value is the desired version for the given extension. The extension name must be
one of the extensions specified in the --extensions flag. If no version is
specified for an extension, the latest version will be used and will be upgraded
automatically.
E.g. --version=filestore=123ABC,ops-agent=456DEF
Raises: ArgumentTypeError: If the extension name is not specified in the --extensions flag.
- 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.Run
$ gcloud helpfor details. - NOTES
- This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist.
