GCLOUD COMPUTE INSTANCES ATTACH-DISK(1)GCLOUD COMPUTE INSTANCES ATTACH-DISK(1)

NAME
       gcloud_compute_instances_attach-disk - attach a disk to an instance

SYNOPSIS
       gcloud compute instances attach-disk INSTANCE
	      [--device-name DEVICE_NAME] --disk DISK [--format FORMAT]
	      [--help] [--mode MODE; default="rw"] [--project PROJECT_ID]
	      [--quiet, -q] [--zone ZONE] [-h]

DESCRIPTION
       gcloud compute instances attach-disk is used to attach a disk to an
       instance. For example,

	   $ gcloud compute instances attach-disk example-instance --disk DISK \
	       --zone us-central1-a

       attaches the disk named DISK to the instance named example-instance in
       zone us-central1-a.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
       INSTANCE
	   The name of the instance to attach the disk to.

FLAGS
       --device-name DEVICE_NAME
	   An optional name that indicates the disk name the guest operating
	   system will see.

       --disk DISK
	   The name of the disk to attach to the instance.

       --mode MODE; default="rw"
	   Specifies the mode of the disk. Supported options are ro for
	   read-only and rw for read-write. If omitted, rw is used as a
	   default. It is an error to attach a disk in read-write mode to more
	   than one instance.

       --zone ZONE
	   The zone of the instance to attach a disk to. If not specified, you
	   will be prompted to select a zone.

	   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 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.

   GLOBAL FLAGS
       --format FORMAT
	   Specify a format for printed output. By default, a command-specific
	   human-friendly output format is used. Setting this flag to one of
	   the available options will serialize the result of the command in
	   the chosen format and print it to stdout. Supported formats are:
	   json, text, yaml.

       --help
	   Display detailed help.

       --project PROJECT_ID
	   The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation.
	   If omitted then the current project is assumed.

       --quiet, -q
	   Disable all interactive prompts when running gcloud commands. If
	   input is required, defaults will be used, or an error will be
	   raised.

       -h
	   Print a summary help and exit.

NOTES
       This command is in the Google Cloud SDK compute component. See
       installing components if it is not installed.
