Getting a list of VM instances in a group
After creating an instance group, you can get a list of instances in the group.
To get a list of VM instances:
- In the management console, open the folder containing the instance group in question.
- Select Compute Cloud.
- In the left-hand panel, select Instance groups.
- Select the group.
- Go to the Virtual machines tab.
If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI installed yet, install and initialize it.
By default, the CLI uses the folder specified when creating the profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also set a different folder for any specific command using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.
