.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(ALPHA)\fR Update a Compute Engine snapshot.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To update labels \f5\fIk0\fR\fR and \f5\fIk1\fR\fR and remove labels with key
\f5\fIk3\fR\fR, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots update example\-snapshot \e
    \-\-update\-labels=k0=value1,k1=value2 \-\-remove\-labels=k3
.RE

.RS 2m
`_k0_` and `_k1_` will be added as new labels if not already present.
.RE

Labels can be used to identify the snapshot and to filter them like:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots list \-\-filter='labels.k1:value2'
.RE

To list only the labels when describing a resource, use \-\-format:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots describe example\-snapshot \e
    \-\-format="default(labels)"
.RE



.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fISNAPSHOT_NAME\fR

Name of the snapshot to update.

.SH "FLAGS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fB\-\-update\-labels\fR=[\fIKEY\fR=\fIVALUE\fR,...]

List of label KEY=VALUE pairs to update. If a label exists, its value is
modified. Otherwise, a new label is created.

Keys must start with a lowercase character and contain only hyphens (\f5\-\fR),
underscores (\f5_\fR), lowercase characters, and numbers. Values must contain
only hyphens (\f5\-\fR), underscores (\f5_\fR), lowercase characters, and
numbers.

.TP 2m

At most one of these can be specified:


.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fB\-\-clear\-labels\fR

Remove all labels. If \f5\-\-update\-labels\fR is also specified then
\f5\-\-clear\-labels\fR is applied first.

For example, to remove all labels:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots update \-\-clear\-labels
.RE

To remove all existing labels and create two new labels, \f5\fIfoo\fR\fR and
\f5\fIbaz\fR\fR:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute snapshots update \-\-clear\-labels \e
  \-\-update\-labels foo=bar,baz=qux
.RE

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-remove\-labels\fR=[\fIKEY\fR,...]

List of label keys to remove. If a label does not exist it is silently ignored.
If \f5\-\-update\-labels\fR is also specified then \f5\-\-update\-labels\fR is
applied first.

.RE
.sp
.TP 2m

At most one of these can be specified:


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

If set, the snapshot is global.

.TP 2m
\fB\-\-region\fR=\fIREGION\fR

Region of the snapshot to update. Overrides the default \fBcompute/region\fR
property value for this command invocation.
