``terminate`` ============= .. contents:: :local: :depth: 1 Description ------------ Permanently terminates (deletes) the specified instance. Any attached VNICs and volumes are automatically detached when the instance terminates. To preserve the boot volume associated with the instance, specify `true` for `PreserveBootVolumeQueryParam`. To delete the boot volume when the instance is deleted, specify `false` or do not specify a value for `PreserveBootVolumeQueryParam`. To preserve data volumes created with the instance, specify `true` or do not specify a value for `PreserveDataVolumesQueryParam`. To delete the data volumes when the instance itself is deleted, specify `false` for `PreserveDataVolumesQueryParam`. This is an asynchronous operation. The instance's `lifecycleState` changes to TERMINATING temporarily until the instance is completely deleted. After the instance is deleted, the record remains visible in the list of instances with the state TERMINATED for at least 12 hours, but no further action is needed. Usage ----- .. code-block:: none oci compute instance terminate [OPTIONS] Required Parameters -------------------- .. option:: --instance-id [text] The `OCID `__ of the instance. Optional Parameters -------------------- .. option:: --force Perform deletion without prompting for confirmation. .. option:: --from-json [text] Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax. The :option:`--generate-full-command-json-input` option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id --> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array. Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used. For examples on usage of this option, please see our "using CLI with advanced JSON options" link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions .. option:: --if-match [text] For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the `if-match` parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource's current etag value. .. option:: --max-wait-seconds [integer] The maximum time to wait for the resource to reach the lifecycle state defined by ``--wait-for-state``. Defaults to 1200 seconds. .. option:: --preserve-boot-volume [boolean] Specifies whether to delete or preserve the boot volume when terminating an instance. When set to `true`, the boot volume is preserved. The default value is `false`. .. option:: --preserve-data-volumes-created-at-launch [boolean] Specifies whether to delete or preserve the data volumes created during launch when terminating an instance. When set to `true`, the data volumes are preserved. The default value is `true`. .. option:: --wait-for-state [text] This operation creates, modifies or deletes a resource that has a defined lifecycle state. Specify this option to perform the action and then wait until the resource reaches a given lifecycle state. Multiple states can be specified, returning on the first state. For example, ``--wait-for-state`` SUCCEEDED ``--wait-for-state`` FAILED would return on whichever lifecycle state is reached first. If timeout is reached, a return code of 2 is returned. For any other error, a return code of 1 is returned. Accepted values are: .. code-block:: py CREATING_IMAGE, MOVING, PROVISIONING, RUNNING, STARTING, STOPPED, STOPPING, TERMINATED, TERMINATING .. option:: --wait-interval-seconds [integer] Check every ``--wait-interval-seconds`` to see whether the resource has reached the lifecycle state defined by ``--wait-for-state``. Defaults to 30 seconds.

Run the command by typing "bash example.sh" and replacing the example parameters with your own. Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up `the OCI configuration `__ and `appropriate security policies `__ before trying the examples. .. code-block:: none :class: copy-code-block export cidr_block= # https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/network/vcn/create.html#cmdoption-cidr-block export compartment_id= # https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/network/vcn/create.html#cmdoption-compartment-id export availability_domain= # https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/compute/instance/launch.html#cmdoption-availability-domain export image_id= # https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/latest/oci_cli_docs/cmdref/compute/instance/launch.html#cmdoption-image-id vcn_id=$(oci network vcn create --cidr-block $cidr_block --compartment-id $compartment_id --query data.id --raw-output) subnet_id=$(oci network subnet create --cidr-block $cidr_block --compartment-id $compartment_id --vcn-id $vcn_id --query data.id --raw-output) instance_id=$(oci compute instance launch --availability-domain $availability_domain --compartment-id $compartment_id --image-id $image_id --subnet-id $subnet_id --query data.id --raw-output) oci compute instance terminate --instance-id $instance_id
