.SH "NAME"
.HP
gcloud alpha compute disks move \- move a disk between zones



.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP
\f5gcloud alpha compute disks move\fR \fIDISK_NAME\fR \fB\-\-destination\-zone\fR=\fIDESTINATION_ZONE\fR [\fB\-\-async\fR] [\fB\-\-zone\fR=\fIZONE\fR] [\fIGCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG\ ...\fR]



.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(ALPHA)\fR \fBgcloud alpha compute disks move\fR facilitates moving a Compute
Engine disk volume from one zone to another. You cannot move a disk if it is
attached to a running or stopped instance; use the gcloud compute instances move
command instead.

The \f5gcloud compute disks move\fR command does not support regional persistent
disks. See
https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/regional\-persistent\-disk for more
details.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To move the disk called example\-disk\-1 from us\-central1\-b to
us\-central1\-f, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute disks move example\-disk\-1 \e
    \-\-zone=us\-central1\-b \-\-destination\-zone=us\-central1\-f
.RE



.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fIDISK_NAME\fR

Name of the disk to operate on.


.RE
.sp

.SH "REQUIRED FLAGS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fB\-\-destination\-zone\fR=\fIDESTINATION_ZONE\fR

The zone to move the disk to.

.SH "OPTIONAL FLAGS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fB\-\-async\fR

Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-zone\fR=\fIZONE\fR

Zone of the disk to operate on. If not specified and the
\f5\fIcompute/zone\fR\fR property isn't set, you might be prompted to select a
zone (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the
\f5\fIcompute/zone\fR\fR property:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud config set compute/zone ZONE
.RE

A list of zones can be fetched by running:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud compute zones list
.RE

To unset the property, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud config unset compute/zone
.RE

Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable
\f5\fICLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE\fR\fR.
