Flags the specified instances in the managed instance group to be started. This method increases thetargetSize and decreases the targetStoppedSize of the managed instance group by the number of instances that you start. The startInstances operation is marked DONE if the startInstances request is successful. The underlying actions take additional time. You must separately verify the status of theSTARTING action with thelistmanagedinstances method.
In this request, you can only specify instances that are stopped. For example, if an instance was previously stopped using the stopInstances method, it can be started using the startInstances method.
If a health check is attached to the managed instance group, the specified instances will be verified as healthy after they are started.
You can specify a maximum of 1000 instances with this method per request.
Path parameters
Project ID for this request.
Name of the region scoping this request.
Name of the managed instance group.
Query parameters
An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed.
For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments.
The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000).
