gcloudcomputedisksresizeexample-disk-1--size=6TBTo resize two disks called example-disk-2 and example-disk-3 to new size 6TB,run:
gcloudcomputedisksresizeexample-disk-2example-disk-3--size=6TBThis assumes that original size of each of these disks is 6TB or less.
- POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
DISK_NAME[DISK_NAME…]- Names of the disks to operate on.
- REQUIRED FLAGS
--size=SIZE- Indicates the new size of the disks. The value must be a whole number followedby a size unit of
for gigabyte, orGBfor terabyte. If no size unit isspecified, GB is assumed. For example,TBwill produce 10 gigabyte disks. Disk size must be a multiple of 1 GB.10GB

gcloudconfigunsetcompute/regionAlternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable
.CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION --zone=ZONE- Zone of the disks to operate on. If not specified and the
property isn't set, you mightbe prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only).compute/zoneTo avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the
