gcloud preview compute instant-snapshots delete

NAME
gcloud preview compute instant-snapshots delete - delete a Compute Engine instant snapshot
SYNOPSIS
gcloud preview compute instant-snapshots delete INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME [ INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME …] [ --region = REGION     | --zone = ZONE ] [ GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ]
DESCRIPTION
(PREVIEW) gcloud preview compute instant-snapshots delete deletes a Compute Engine instant snapshot. A disk can be deleted only if it is not attached to any virtual machine instances.
EXAMPLES
To delete Compute Engine instant snapshots with the names 'instant-snapshot-1' and 'instant-snapshot-2', run:
 gcloud  
preview  
compute  
instant-snapshots  
delete  
instant-snapshot-1  
instant-snapshot-2 

To list all instant snapshots that were created before a specific date, use the --filter flag with the gcloud preview compute instant-snapshots list command.

  gcloud  
preview  
compute  
instant-snapshots  
list 
  
 --filter 
 = 
 "creationTimestamp<'2017-01-01'" 
 

For more information on how to use --filter with the list command, run $ gcloud topic filters .

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME [ INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME …]
Names of the instant snapshots to delete.
FLAGS
At most one of these can be specified:
--region = REGION
Region of the instant snapshots to delete. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/region property:

  gcloud  
config  
 set 
 
  
compute/region  
REGION 

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

  gcloud  
compute  
regions  
list 
 

To unset the property, run:

  gcloud  
config  
 unset 
 
  
compute/region 

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION .

--zone = ZONE
Zone of the instant snapshots to delete. If not specified and the compute/zone property isn't set, you might be prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/zone property:

  gcloud  
config  
 set 
 
  
compute/zone  
ZONE 

A list of zones can be fetched by running:

  gcloud  
compute  
zones  
list 
 

To unset the property, run:

  gcloud  
config  
 unset 
 
  
compute/zone 

Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE .

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.
