- DESCRIPTION
-
(BETA)gcloud beta compute instance-groups managed abandon-instancesabandons one or more instances from a managed instance group, thereby reducing the targetSize of the group. Once instances have been abandoned, the currentSize of the group is automatically reduced as well to reflect the change.Abandoning an instance does not reboot or delete the underlying virtual machine instances, but just removes the instances from the instance group. If you would like to delete the underlying instances, use the
delete-instancescommand instead.The command returns the operation status per instance, which might be
FAILSUCCESSMEMBER_NOT_FOUNDMEMBER_NOT_FOUNDFor a more detailed overview of how abandoning instances from a managed instance group works, see Abandoning instances from a MIG.
