Hello, Currently, it is not possible to attach GPU to an existing instance using "gcloud" command. You can attach GPU using cloud console, "EDIT" option of the instance when it is in the stop state. Another way to attach GPU to an existing instance (stopped) is through API <https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#search/compute%20engine/compute/v1/compute.instances.setMachineResources> [1][2].
Following is the URL which needs to be defined for property guestAccelerators[].acceleratorType: https://www.googleapis.com/compute/beta/projects/<project-id>/zones/<zone-where-instance-is-deployed>/acceleratorTypes/nvidia-tesla-k80 Example: https://www.googleapis.com/compute/beta/projects/test-project/zones/us-west1-b/acceleratorTypes/nvidia-tesla-k80 You can submit a feature request at public issue tracker <https://issuetracker.google.com> [3] to add a parameter for "gcloud" to attach GPU to an existing instance.
