GCE now provides the function to stop and start the instances. Does ansible gce module provides that function?
I am not sure the meaning of “active, present, absent, delete” in the following document.
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/gce_module.html
I have been trying to determine this myself and I have not successfully started a terminated instance with the Ansible gce module.
The titles of the Ansible module pages do seem to imply that the EC2 has a higher level of functionality than the GCE module:
ec2 - create, terminate, start or stop an instance in ec2
gce - create or terminate GCE instances
