OCI Start Compute Instance

with Oracle · IT Infrastructure Management

Start a stopped compute instance and confirm it reaches RUNNING.

  1. Read the instance to confirm it exists and capture its current ETag for optimistic concurrency control on the start action.
  2. Perform the START action on the instance to power it on, guarded by the ETag captured when reading the instance.
  3. Read the instance and check its lifecycle state. Repeat this step until the instance reports RUNNING.
What you'll need to have ready
  • instanceId: The OCID of the instance to start.
  • authToken: OCI request-signing bearer credential for the Authorization header.
