Reference documentation and code samples for the Compute Engine v1 API enum UpdateInstanceRequest.Types.MostDisruptiveAllowedAction.
Specifies the most disruptive action that can be taken on the instance as part of the update. Compute Engine returns an error if the instance properties require a more disruptive action as part of the instance update. Valid options from lowest to highest are NO_EFFECT, REFRESH, and RESTART.
Additional supported values which may be not listed in the enum directly due to technical reasons:
