DESCRIPTION
(BETA) gcloud beta compute instances os-inventory list-instancesdisplays all Compute Engine instances in a project matching an inventory filter.Run $gcloud topic filters tosee the supported filter syntax.
EXAMPLES
To list all instances with OS inventory data in a project in table form, run:
gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances

To list the URIs of all instances whose OS short name contains rhel, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--inventory-filter="ShortName:rhel"--uri

To list the URIs of all instances whose OS short name is equal to rhel, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--os-shortname="rhel"--uri

To list all instances with package google-cloud-sdk of version 235.0.0-0installed, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--package-name="google-cloud-sdk"--package-version="235.0.0-0"

To list all instances with package name matching a regex ^google-cloudavailable for update through apt, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--inventory-filter="PackageUpdates.apt[].Name~^google-cloud*"

To list all instances with package update google-cloud-sdk of version greaterthan or equal to 235.0.0-0 available through apt, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--inventory-filter="PackageUpdates.apt[].['google-cloud-sdk'].Version>=235.0.0-0"

To list all instances missing the Stackdriver monitoring packagestackdriver-agent, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--inventory-filter="NOT(InstalledPackages:stackdriver-agent)"

To list all Windows instances with an installed qfe hotfix whose ID equalsKB4462930, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--inventory-filter="InstalledPackages.qfe[].HotFixID=KB4462930"

To list all Windows instances with a wua update whose description contains theword Security, run:

gcloudbetacomputeinstancesos-inventorylist-instances--inventory-filter="InstalledPackages.wua[].Description:Security"
FLAGS
--inventory-filter=INVENTORY_FILTER
Filter expression for matching against OS inventory criteria
Exact match values for OS inventory data:
--kernel-version=KERNEL_VERSION
If specified, only instances with this kernel version in their inventory datawill be displayed.
--os-shortname=OS_SHORTNAME
If specified, only instances with this OS shortname in their inventory data willbe displayed.
--os-version=OS_VERSION
If specified, only instances with this OS version in their inventory data willbe displayed.
--package-name=PACKAGE_NAME
If specified, only instances with an installed package of this name in theirinventory data will be displayed.
--package-version=PACKAGE_VERSION
If specified with a package name, only instances with the installed package ofthis version in their inventory data will be displayed.
LIST COMMAND FLAGS
--filter=EXPRESSION
Apply a Boolean filterEXPRESSION to 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 isunlimited. 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 isunlimited (no paging).Paging may be applied before or after--filter and--limit depending 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.
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 help for details.
