instanceGroupManagers

POST /projects/{project}/zones/{zone}/instanceGroupManagers/{instanceGroupManager}/stopInstances

Changed on

Flags the specified instances in the managed instance group to be immediately stopped. You can only specify instances that are running in this request. This method reduces thetargetSize and increases the targetStoppedSize of the managed instance group by the number of instances that you stop. The stopInstances operation is marked DONE if the stopInstances request is successful. The underlying actions take additional time. You must separately verify the status of theSTOPPING action with thelistmanagedinstances method.

If the standbyPolicy.initialDelaySec field is set, the group delays stopping the instances until initialDelaySec have passed from instance.creationTimestamp (that is, when the instance was created). This delay gives your application time to set itself up and initialize on the instance. If more thaninitialDelaySec seconds have passed sinceinstance.creationTimestamp when this method is called, there will be zero delay.

If the group is part of a backend service that has enabled connection draining, it can take up to 60 seconds after the connection draining duration has elapsed before the VM instance is stopped.

Stopped instances can be started using the startInstances method.

You can specify a maximum of 1000 instances with this method per request.

Path parameters

projectstring required

Project ID for this request.

zonestring required

The name of thezone where the managed instance group is located.

instanceGroupManagerstring required

The name of the managed instance group.

Query parameters

noGracefulShutdownboolean

When set, graceful shutdown is skipped for instance stopping even if it's configured for the instances.

requestIdstring

An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed.

For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments.

The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000).

Request body

forceStopboolean

If this flag is set to true, the Instance Group Manager will proceed to stop the instances, skipping initialization on them.

instancesstring[]

The URLs of one or more instances to stop. This can be a full URL or a partial URL, such as zones/[ZONE]/instances/[INSTANCE_NAME].

Response

Successful response

clientOperationIdstring

[Output Only] The value of requestId if you provided it in the request. Not present otherwise.

creationTimestampstring

[Deprecated] This field is deprecated.

descriptionstring

[Output Only] A textual description of the operation, which is set when the operation is created.

endTimestring

[Output Only] The time that this operation was completed. This value is inRFC3339 text format.

Output only. [Output Only] An ID that represents a group of operations, such as when a group of operations results from a bulkInsert API request.

operationTypestring

[Output Only] The type of operation, such as insert, update, or delete, and so on.

progressinteger

[Output Only] An optional progress indicator that ranges from 0 to 100. There is no requirement that this be linear or support any granularity of operations. This should not be used to guess when the operation will be complete. This number should monotonically increase as the operation progresses.
