Associate a GCE disk with a system, or remove an association
This command connects an existing GCE disk with a running instance. The disk must be specified by using the --name
flag, and the system by the --add-host
flag followed by a hostname. You must also provide the --project
flag, followed by GCE project ID.
Breaking the association between a system and disk can be done with the --remove-host
flag, followed by the system's hostname. This will not harm any data on the volume, but may not take effect until it is un-mounted.
Example usage
cloudmin associate-gce-disk --name test4 --add-host 1.2.3.4 Associating 1.2.3.4 with disk test4 .. .. done cloudmin associate-gce-disk --name test4 --remove-host 1.2.3.4 Disassociating 1.2.3.4 with disk test4 .. .. done
