- DESCRIPTION
(BETA)gcloud beta compute backend-services get-healthis used to request the current health status of instances in a backend service.Every group in the service is checked and the health status of each configuredinstance is printed.If a group contains names of instances that don't exist or instances thathaven't yet been pushed to the load-balancing system, they will not show up.Those that are listed as
are ableto receive load-balanced traffic. Those that are marked asHEALTHYare either failing the configuredhealth-check or not responding to it.UNHEALTHYSince the health checks are performed continuously and in a distributed manner,the state returned by this command is the most recent result of a vote ofseveral redundant health checks. Backend services that do not have a validglobal forwarding rule referencing it will not be health checked and so willhave no health status.
- POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

--filter=EXPRESSION- Apply a Boolean filter
EXPRESSIONto each resource itemto be listed. If the expression evaluatesTrue, then that item islisted. For more details and examples of filter expressions, run $gcloud topic filters. This flaginteracts with other flags that are applied in this order:--flatten,--sort-by,--filter,--limit. --limit=LIMIT- Maximum number of resources to list. The default is
unlimited. Thisflag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order:--flatten,--sort-by,--filter,--limit. --page-size=PAGE_SIZE- Some services group resource list output into pages. This flag specifies themaximum number of resources per page. The default is determined by the serviceif it supports paging, otherwise it is
unlimited(no paging).Paging may be applied before or after--filterand--limitdepending on the service. --sort-by=[FIELD,…]- Comma-separated list of resource field key names to sort by. The default orderis ascending. Prefix a field with ``~´´ for descending order on thatfield. This flag interacts with other flags that are applied in this order:
--flatten,--sort-by,--filter,--limit. --uri- Print a list of resource URIs instead of the default output, and change thecommand output to a list of URIs. If this flag is used with
--format, the formatting is applied on this URI list. To displayURIs alongside other keys instead, use theuri()transform.
