SYNOPSIS
gcloud compute instances remove-metadata INSTANCE_NAME [--zone=ZONE] [--all     | --keys=KEY,[KEY,…]] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute instances remove-metadata can be used to remove instance metadata entries.
EXAMPLES
To remove metadata keys important-data and useless-data along with their data from an instance named test-instance, run: 
gcloud compute instances remove-metadata test-instance --keys=important-data,useless-data
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
INSTANCE_NAME
Name of the instance to set metadata on. For details on valid instance names, refer to the criteria documented under the field 'name' at: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/rest/v1/instances
FLAGS
--zone=ZONE
Zone of the instance to set metadata on. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only). gcloud attempts to identify the appropriate zone by searching for resources in your currently active project. If the zone cannot be determined, gcloud prompts you for a selection with all available Google Cloud Platform zones.

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, the user 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.

At most one of these can be specified:
--all
If provided, all metadata entries are removed.
--keys=KEY,[KEY,…]
The keys of the entries to remove.
