InstanceFromTemplate class

Manages a VM instance resource within GCE. For more information see the official documentation and API.

This resource is specifically to create a compute instance from a given sourceInstanceTemplate. To create an instance without a template, use the gcp.compute.Instance resource.

Constructors

InstanceFromTemplate(String name, {InstanceFromTemplateArgs? args, CustomResourceOptions? options})
Creates a new InstanceFromTemplate. name The Pulumi resource name. args Arguments used to configure this InstanceFromTemplate. The set of arguments for InstanceFromTemplate. options Resource options controlling this resource's behavior.
InstanceFromTemplate.reference(String urn)
Creates a typed reference to an existing InstanceFromTemplate resource.

Properties

advancedMachineFeatures ↔ Output<InstanceFromTemplateAdvancedMachineFeatures>
Controls for advanced machine-related behavior features.
latefinal
allowStoppingForUpdate ↔ Output<bool>
If true, allows Terraform to stop the instance to update its properties. If you try to update a property that requires stopping the instance without setting this field, the update will fail.
latefinal

List of disks attached to the instance
latefinal
bootDisk ↔ Output<InstanceFromTemplateBootDisk>
The boot disk for the instance.
latefinal
canIpForward ↔ Output<bool>

Whether Terraform will be prevented from destroying the instance. Defaults to "DELETE". When a 'terraform destroy' or 'terraform apply' would delete the instance, the command will fail if this field is set to "PREVENT" in Terraform state. When set to "ABANDON", the command will remove the resource from Terraform management without updating or deleting the resource in the API. When set to "DELETE", deleting the resource is allowed.
