.SH "NAME"
.HP
gcloud compute instance\-groups unmanaged delete \- delete Compute Engine unmanaged instance groups



.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP
\f5gcloud compute instance\-groups unmanaged delete\fR \fINAME\fR [\fINAME\fR\ ...] [\fB\-\-zone\fR=\fIZONE\fR] [\fIGCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG\ ...\fR]



.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fBgcloud compute instance\-groups unmanaged delete\fR deletes one or more
Compute Engine unmanaged instance groups. This command just deletes the instance
group and does not delete the individual virtual machine instances in the
instance group. For example:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud compute instance\-groups unmanaged delete \e
    example\-instance\-group\-1 example\-instance\-group\-2 \e
    \-\-zone us\-central1\-a
.RE

The above example deletes two instance groups, example\-instance\-group\-1 and
example\-instance\-group\-2, in the \f5\fIus\-central1\-a\fR\fR zone.



.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fINAME\fR [\fINAME\fR ...]

Names of the instance groups to delete.


.RE
.sp

.SH "FLAGS"

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

Zone of the instance groups to delete. 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.
