.SH "SYNOPSIS"

\f5gcloud beta filestore instances promote\-replica\fR (\fIINSTANCE\fR\ :\ \fB\-\-zone\fR=\fIZONE\fR) [\fB\-\-async\fR] [\fB\-\-location\fR=\fILOCATION\fR] [\fB\-\-peer\-instance\fR=\fIPEER_INSTANCE\fR] [\fIGCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG\ ...\fR]



.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(BETA)\fR Promote a Filestore standby replication instance to a regular
instance. This command can be called directly on the standby instance or on the
active instance with the standby peer instance parameter. When used on the
standby instance promotes the standby instance to a regular instance even if the
active instance is unavailable. When used on the active instance detaches the
standby instance from the active instance even if the standby instance is
unavailable.

This command can fail for the following reasons:
.RS 2m
.IP "\(bu" 2m
The target instance does not exist.
.IP "\(bu" 2m
The instance is not a standby replication member.
.IP "\(bu" 2m
The instance is an active instance and the peer instance parameter is missing or
invalid.

.SH "EXAMPLES"

To promote a standby instance with the name \f5\fImy\-replica\-instance\fR\fR
located in \f5\fIus\-central1\fR\fR, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud beta filestore instances promote\-replica \e
