- NAME
- gcloud compute instances remove-labels - remove labels from Google Compute Engine virtual machine instances
- SYNOPSIS
gcloud compute instances remove-labelsINSTANCE_NAME(--all|--labels=KEY,[KEY,…])[--zone=ZONE][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
- DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute instances remove-labelsremoves labels from a GoogleCompute Engine virtual machine instance.- EXAMPLES
- To remove existing labels with key
andk0from 'example-instance'k1gcloudcomputeinstancesremove-labelsexample-instance--labels=k0,k1Labels can be used to identify the instance and to filter them. To find ainstance labeled with key-value pair
,k1v2gcloudcomputeinstanceslist--filter='labels.k1:v2'To list only the labels when describing a resource, use --format
gcloudcomputeinstancesdescribeexample-instance--format='default(labels)' - POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
INSTANCE_NAME- Name of the instance to operate on. For details on valid instance names, referto the criteria documented under the field 'name' at:https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/rest/v1/instances
- REQUIRED FLAGS
- Exactly one of these must be specified:
--all- Remove all labels from the resource.
--labels=KEY,[KEY,…]- A comma-separated list of label keys to remove from the resource.
- Exactly one of these must be specified:
- OPTIONAL FLAGS
--zone=ZONE- Zone of the instance to operate on. If not specified, you might be prompted toselect a zone (interactive mode only).
gcloudattempts to identify theappropriate zone by searching for resources in your currently active project. Ifthe zone cannot be determined,gcloudprompts you for a selection withall available Google Cloud Platform zones.To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, the user can set the
property:compute/zonegcloudconfigsetcompute/zoneZONEA list of zones can be fetched by running:
gcloudcomputezoneslistTo unset the property, run:
gcloudconfigunsetcompute/zoneAlternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable
.CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE
