Scheduling a VM instance to start and stop | Compute Engine Documentation

Instance schedules let you start and stop virtual machine (VM) instances automatically. To use instance schedules, create a resource policy detailing the start and stop behavior, and then attach the policy to one or more VM instances.

Using instance schedules to automate deployment of your VM instances can help you optimize costs and manage VM instances more efficiently. You can use instance schedules for both recurring and one-off workloads. For example, use instance schedules to only run VM instances during working hours or to provide capacity for a onetime event.

To learn about other options for automatically scheduling VMs, see the following pages:

• Scale based on schedules: If you run your workload on a managed instance group (MIG), you can use scaling schedules to schedule the required number of virtual machine (VM) instances for recurring or onetime events.

• Limit the run time of a VM: If you don't want to create resource policies, you can directly configure a VM to be automatically stopped or deleted when it reaches a specific time or duration.

• If you haven't already, then set up authentication. Authentication is the process by which your identity is verified for access to Google Cloud services and APIs. To run code or samples from a local development environment, you can authenticate to Compute Engine by selecting one of the following options:

  Select the tab for how you plan to use the samples on this page:

  Console

  When you use the Google Cloud console to access Google Cloud services and APIs, you don't need to set up authentication.

  gcloud

  1. Install the Google Cloud CLI. After installation, initialize the Google Cloud CLI by running the following command:

     gcloud init

     If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

     Note: If you installed the gcloud CLI previously, make sure you have the latest version by running gcloud components update.
  2. Set a default region and zone.
  REST

  To use the REST API samples on this page in a local development environment, you use the credentials you provide to the gcloud CLI.

  Install the Google Cloud CLI. After installation, initialize the Google Cloud CLI by running the following command:

  gcloud init

  If you're using an external identity provider (IdP), you must first sign in to the gcloud CLI with your federated identity.

  For more information, see Authenticate for using REST in the Google Cloud authentication documentation.

To use instance schedules, you need to grant the required Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles to the following principals:

• The Compute Engine Service Agent for your project. This is needed for the instance schedule to run on a VM.

  If you revoke these permissions after creating instance schedules, your instance schedules might stop working without notice. To verify if your instance schedules run successfully, you should regularly check the audit logs.

• The user account or service account that creates, manages, or uses the instance schedule.

To ensure that the Compute Engine Service Agent has the necessary permissions to run instance schedule, ask your administrator to grant the Compute Engine Service Agent the Compute Instance Admin (v1) (roles/compute.instanceAdmin.v1) IAM role on the project.

For more information about granting roles, see

.

This predefined role contains the permissions required to run instance schedule. To see the exact permissions that are required, expand the Required permissions section:

The following permissions are required to run instance schedule:

• compute.instances.start
• compute.instances.stop

Your administrator might also be able to give the Compute Engine Service Agent these permissions with custom roles or other predefined roles.

To ensure that you or your service account has the necessary permissions to create and manage instance schedules, ask your administrator to grant you or your service account the Compute Instance Admin (v1) (roles/compute.instanceAdmin.v1) IAM role on your project or organization.

For more information about granting roles, see

.

This predefined role contains the permissions required to create and manage instance schedules. To see the exact permissions that are required, expand the Required permissions section:

The following permissions are required to create and manage instance schedules:

• Create an instance schedule: compute.resourcePolicies.create
• List an instance schedule: compute.resourcePolicies.list
• Describe an instance schedule: compute.resourcePolicies.get
• Delete an instance schedule: compute.resourcePolicies.delete
• Attach an instance schedule to a new VM:
  • compute.instances.create
  • compute.resourcePolicies.use
  • compute.instances.addResourcePolicies
• Attach an instance schedule to an existing VM:
  • compute.resourcePolicies.use
  • compute.instances.addResourcePolicies
• Remove an instance schedule from a VM:
  • compute.resourcePolicies.use
  • compute.instances.removeResourcePolicies

Your administrator might also be able to give you or your service account these permissions with custom roles or other predefined roles.

• You can only attach an instance schedule to VM instances that are located in the same region as the instance schedule.
• You can't use instance schedules to stop an instance that has Local SSD disks.
• Each VM instance can only follow one instance schedule, but you can attach each instance schedule to up to 1,000 VM instances.
• Instance schedules don't provide capacity guarantees, so if the resources required for a scheduled VM instance are not available at the scheduled time, your VM instance might not start when scheduled. Although you can reserve VM instances before starting them to obtain a high level of assurance that your capacity is available when needed, reservations can't be automatically scheduled.
• Instance schedules only start and stop VM instances at the specified times, but you can manually start and stop VM instances at any time. For example, suppose you have a schedule that starts daily at 8 AM and stops daily at 5 PM. If you attach that schedule to a stopped VM instance at 4 PM, that VM instance does not start until 8 AM the next day unless you manually start the VM instance before then.
• Scheduled VM instances might take up to 15 minutes past the scheduled time to begin a start or stop operation. If you need VM instances to start or stop at a specific time, schedule the operation 15 minutes earlier than needed, and schedule each operation at least 15 minutes apart.
• The scheduler might fail if there is a gap of less than 15 minutes between the start and stop operations. This is because the stop operation might occur before the start operation, preventing the start operation from happening.
• Each instance schedule lets you have up to one start operation and up to one stop operation per hour.
• To modify an instance's schedule, use a patch operation on the Instance Schedule policy.

Create, list, describe, and delete instance schedules using the Google Cloud console, Google Cloud CLI, or Compute Engine API.

Create an instance schedule that describes when your VM instances should automatically start or stop. The instance schedule that you create is a resource policy, which you can use by attaching or removing it from VM instances.

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the VM instances page.

   Go to VM instances

2. Click the Instance schedules tab at the top of the page.

   Note: If you don't see this option, create a VM instance first.

3. Click date_range Create schedule. The Create a schedule pane opens.

4. Enter a Name.

5. In the Region drop-down menu, select the location for this instance schedule.

6. Define when the instance schedule starts and stops any attached VM instances. If you need VM instances to start or stop at a specific time, schedule the operation 15 minutes earlier than needed. Make sure each start and stop operation are at least 15 minutes apart.

   Use either the default Start time, Stop time, and Frequency fields or, if you want to configure a more complex schedule, use cron expressions.

   • Default fields:

     1. Enter a Start time, a Stop time, or both.
        • In the Start time field, type or click access_time to select the time to start VM instances.
        • In the Stop time field, type or click access_time to select the time to stop VM instances.
     2. In the Frequency drop-down menu at the bottom of the pane, select how often the Start time and Stop time repeat.

   • Cron expressions:

     1. To enable cron expressions, click the Use CRON expression toggle at the top of the pane.
     2. Enter a Start CRON expression, Stop CRON expression, or both.
        • In the Start CRON expression field, enter a cron expression that describes when to start VM instances.
        • In the Stop CRON expression field, enter a cron expression that describes when to stop VM instances.

7. In the Time zone drop-down menu, select the time zone for the Start time and Stop time.

8. Optional: In the Initiate date field, type or click date_range to select the date and time when you want this instance schedule to begin. If omitted, the schedule is effective immediately.

9. Optional: In the End date field, type or click date_range to select the date and time when you want this instance schedule to end. If omitted, the schedule is effective indefinitely.

10. Click Submit.

To create an instance schedule using the gcloud CLI, use the gcloud compute resource-policies create instance-schedule command:

gcloud compute resource-policies create instance-schedule SCHEDULE_NAME \
    --region=REGION \
    [--vm-start-schedule='START-OPERATION_SCHEDULE'] \
    [--vm-stop-schedule='STOP-OPERATION_SCHEDULE'] \
    [--timezone=TIME_ZONE] \
    [--initiation-date=INITIATION_DATE] \
    [--end-date=END_DATE]

Replace the following:

• SCHEDULE_NAME: the name of the new instance schedule.
• REGION: the region where the VM instances that you want to attach to this instance schedule are located.
• Specify at least one of the following:
  • START-OPERATION_SCHEDULE: a schedule that describes when the attached VM instances are started, formatted as a cron expression. If you need VM instances to start at a specific time, schedule the operation 15 minutes earlier than needed. For more information, see start-operation schedule.
  • STOP-OPERATION_SCHEDULE: a schedule that describes when the attached VM instances are stopped, formatted as a cron expression. If you need VM instances to stop at a specific time, schedule the operation 15 minutes earlier than needed. For more information, see stop-operation schedule.
• TIME_ZONE: Optional: the location-based IANA time zone for this instance schedule. If omitted, the default value UTC is used. For more information, see time zone.
• INITIATION_DATE: Optional: the first date that instance schedule is effective, formatted as an RFC 3339 timestamp. If omitted, the schedule is effective immediately. For more information, see initiation date.
• END_DATE: Optional: the last date that instance schedule is effective, formatted as an RFC 3339 timestamp. If omitted, the schedule is effective indefinitely. For more information, see end date.

To create an instance schedule using the Compute Engine API, make a request using the resourcePolicies.insert method:

POST https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/PROJECT/regions/REGION/resourcePolicies
{
  "name": "SCHEDULE_NAME",
  "instanceSchedulePolicy": {
    "vmStartSchedule": {
      "schedule": "START-OPERATION_SCHEDULE"
    },
    "vmStopSchedule": {
      "schedule": "STOP-OPERATION_SCHEDULE"
    },
    "timeZone": "TIME_ZONE",
    "startTime":"INITIATION_DATE",
    "expirationTime":"END_DATE"
  }
}

Replace the following:

• PROJECT: your project id.
• REGION: the region where the VM instances that you want to attach to this instance schedule are located.
• SCHEDULE_NAME: the name of the new instance schedule.
• START-OPERATION_SCHEDULE or STOP-OPERATION_SCHEDULE: Specify at least one of the following:
  • START-OPERATION_SCHEDULE: a schedule that describes when the attached VM instances are started, formatted as a cron expression. If you need VM instances to start at a specific time, schedule the operation 15 minutes earlier than needed. For more information, see start-operation schedule.
  • STOP-OPERATION_SCHEDULE: a schedule that describes when the attached VM instances are stopped, formatted as a cron expression. If you need VM instances to stop at a specific time, schedule the operation 15 minutes earlier than needed. For more information, see stop-operation schedule.
• TIME_ZONE: the location-based IANA time zone for this instance schedule. For more information, see time zone.
• INITIATION_DATE: Optional: the first date that instance schedule is effective, formatted as an RFC 3339 timestamp. If omitted, the schedule is effective immediately. For more information, see initiation date.
• END_DATE: Optional: the last date that instance schedule is effective, formatted as an RFC 3339 timestamp. If omitted, the schedule is effective indefinitely. For more information, see end date.

Each instance schedule has the following settings:

start-operation schedule, stop-operation schedule

Schedules that describe when the instance schedule starts and stops any attached VM instances. An instance schedule can have one of these schedules or both.

When creating instance schedules using the Google Cloud console, you can either select a Start time, Stop time, and Frequency or format each schedule as a cron expression. When creating instance schedules using the gcloud CLI or Compute Engine API, you must format each schedule as a cron expression.

The following table defines the fields of a cron expression and the supported values for each field.

Minute Hour Day of the month Month Day of the week 0-59 0-23 1-31

where 29-31 are only effective for relevant months

1-12 0-6 or SUN-SAT (Sunday-Saturday)

where 0=SUN, 1=MON, … 6=SAT

Note: Operation schedules repeat every year unless you specify an initiation date and end date. In addition to these values, every field in a cron expression can also use the following special characters. Special character Meaning Example * any If the day-of-the-month field, month field, and day-of-the-week field are all set to *, the schedule repeats every day. - range If the day-of-the-week field is set to MON-FRI (or 1-5), the schedule repeats every week Monday through Friday. , list If the month field is set to 1-6,8-12, the schedule repeats every month except July.

When you write a cron expression, consider the following:

• Whitespace is used to separate the fields of a cron expression. Remember to not add extra whitespace in a field that is using special characters.
• When you specify both a day of the week and a day of the month (when neither field is set to *), the schedule uses the union of these values, not the intersection. For example, the schedule 0 8 1 * MON starts at 8 AM on every Monday and on the first day of every month. That schedule does not start at 8 AM only on Mondays that are also the first day of the month.

time zone

The location-based IANA time zone for the start-operation schedule and stop-operation schedule. The IANA time zone database defines a list of available values. This time zone is used as reference for only the start-operation and stop-operation schedules—it is not used for the initiation date and end date. The time zone is optional when using the gcloud CLI or Compute Engine API. If omitted, the default value UTC is used.

Some IANA time zones observe daylight saving time (DST), which can impact your instance schedules. The details of DST—such as when DST starts and ends, as well as how much time is skipped and repeated—vary according to each time zone.

Note: When DST begins and ends, instance schedules have the following behavior:

• Operations that are scheduled during the period when DST begins, and time is skipped, are still executed but with an offset. For example, if an operation is scheduled for 2:15 AM but DST skips the 2 AM hour, the operation for that day begins at 3:15 AM instead. This skipped time might cause your VM instances to run for less time than they would have otherwise. If the skipped time causes a start operation and stop operation to be scheduled at the same time, the stop operation is prioritized and the start operation is ignored.
• Operations that are scheduled during the period when DST ends, and time is repeated, are executed at the first occurrence of that time. This repeated time might cause your VM instances to run for more time than they would have otherwise.

initiation date, end date

The timeframe that the instance schedule is effective. Both values are optional. Operations repeat annually unless you specify these values to limit the schedule to a single year.

When creating instance schedules using the Google Cloud console, select a date, time, and time zone using the Initiate date and End date fields.

When creating instance schedules using the gcloud CLI or Compute Engine API, these values are formatted as an RFC 3339 timestamp:

  YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSOFFSET

Replace the following:

• YYYY-MM-DD: a date formatted as a 4-digit year, 2-digit month, and 2-digit day of the month separated by hyphens.
• HH:MM:SS: a time formatted as a 2-digit hour using 24-hour time, 2-digit minute, and 2-digit second separated by colons.
• OFFSET: the time zone formatted as an offset of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). For example, Pacific Standard Time (PST), which is 8 hours earlier than UTC, is written as -08:00. Alternatively, to use no offset (the UTC time zone), write Z.

To use an instance schedule, attach it to one or more VM instances that you want to follow that schedule. You can attach an instance schedule to an existing VM instance or while creating a new VM instance. To stop a VM instance from following an attached instance schedule, remove the schedule from that VM instance.

To attach an instance schedule to a new VM instance, you must create the VM instance in the same region as the instance schedule that you use. Learn more about creating a VM instance.

You cannot attach an instance schedule while creating an instance using the Google Cloud console. To use the Google Cloud console to attach an instance schedule to a new VM instance, create a VM instance, and then attach a schedule to the VM instance.

To attach an instance schedule to a VM instance using the gcloud CLI, use the gcloud compute instances create command with the --resource-policies flag. For example, to create a VM instance from a public image with an attached instance schedule, use the following command:

gcloud compute instances create VM_NAME \
    --resource-policies=SCHEDULE_NAME \
    --zone=ZONE \
    [--image IMAGE | --image-family IMAGE_FAMILY] \
    [--image-project IMAGE_PROJECT]
