* Global Parameters

* Examples


Description
===========

Terminates 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* for
*PreserveDataVolumesQueryParam*. To delete the data volumes when the
instance itself is deleted, specify *false* or do not specify a value
for *PreserveDataVolumesQueryParam*.

This is an asynchronous operation. The instance’s *lifecycleState*
will change to TERMINATING temporarily until the instance is
completely removed.


Usage
=====

   oci compute instance terminate [OPTIONS]


Required Parameters
===================

--instance-id [text]

The OCID of the instance.


Optional Parameters
===================

--force

Perform deletion without prompting for confirmation.

--from-json [text]

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the
file://path-to/file syntax.

The "--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/Conte
nt/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--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.

--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.

--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*.

--preserve-data-volumes [boolean]

Specifies whether to delete or preserve the data volumes when
terminating an instance. When set to *true*, the boot volume is
preserved. The default value is *false*.

--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:

   CREATING_IMAGE, MOVING, PROVISIONING, RUNNING, STARTING, STOPPED, STOPPING, TERMINATED, TERMINATING

--wait-interval-seconds [integer]

Check every "--wait-interval-seconds" to see whether the resource to
see if it has reached the lifecycle state defined by "--wait-for-
state". Defaults to 30 seconds.

Examples
========

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. 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.
