15050

Google

Onboarded volumes with autodelete flag are duplicated.
Note: The platform treats autodelete hard disks as volumes for performance reasons. When you undeploy or stop the VM, Google will delete them. Then during the next synchronization, the platform will delete them. If you wish to keep these disks, detach them from the VM before you undeploy



15049

Google

Sync IPs in subnet does not update ephemeral IPs after you change IPs from static to ephemeral directly in the provider
