.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(ALPHA)\fR Cancel a running operation.

Cancel is a best\-effort method for aborting a running operation. Operations
that have already completed can not be cancelled. If the operation has passed
the "point of no\-return", cancel will have no effect.

An example of "point of no\-return" in the context of Upgrade operations would
be if all the nodes have been upgraded but the operation hasn't been marked as
complete.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To cancel an operation, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha container operations cancel sample\-operation\-id

.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.SH "FLAGS"

.RS 2m

At most one of these can be specified:


.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fB\-\-location\fR=\fILOCATION\fR

Compute zone or region (e.g. us\-central1\-a or us\-central1) for the cluster.
Overrides the default compute/region or compute/zone value for this command
invocation. Prefer using this flag over the \-\-region or \-\-zone flags.

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

Compute region (e.g. us\-central1) for a regional cluster. Overrides the default
compute/region property value for this command invocation.

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

Compute zone (e.g. us\-central1\-a) for a zonal cluster. Overrides the default
compute/zone property value for this command invocation.
