AWS::GameLift::Fleet RuntimeConfiguration

A collection of server process configurations that describe the processes to run on each instance in a fleet. All fleets must have a runtime configuration. Each instance in the fleet maintains server processes as specified in the runtime configuration, launching new ones as existing processes end. Each instance regularly checks for an updated runtime configuration makes adjustments as called for.

The runtime configuration enables the instances in a fleet to run multiple processes simultaneously. Potential scenarios are as follows: (1) Run multiple processes of a single game server executable to maximize usage of your hosting resources. (2) Run one or more processes of different executables, such as your game server and a metrics tracking program. (3) Run multiple processes of a single game server but with different launch parameters, for example to run one process on each instance in debug mode.

An Amazon GameLift instance is limited to 50 processes running simultaneously. A runtime configuration must specify fewer than this limit. To calculate the total number of processes specified in a runtime configuration, add the values of the ConcurrentExecutions parameter for each ServerProcess object in the runtime configuration.

Syntax

To declare this entity in your AWS CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

JSON


{
  "GameSessionActivationTimeoutSeconds" : Integer,
  "MaxConcurrentGameSessionActivations" : Integer,
  "ServerProcesses" : [ ServerProcess, ... ]
}

YAML


  GameSessionActivationTimeoutSeconds: Integer
  MaxConcurrentGameSessionActivations: Integer
  ServerProcesses: 
    - ServerProcess

Properties

GameSessionActivationTimeoutSeconds

The maximum amount of time (in seconds) allowed to launch a new game session and have it report ready to host players. During this time, the game session is in status ACTIVATING. If the game session does not become active before the timeout, it is ended and the game session status is changed to TERMINATED.

Required: No

Type: Integer

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 600

Update requires: No interruption

MaxConcurrentGameSessionActivations

The number of game sessions in status ACTIVATING to allow on an instance. This setting limits the instance resources that can be used for new game activations at any one time.

Required: No

Type: Integer

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 2147483647

Update requires: No interruption

ServerProcesses

A collection of server process configurations that identify what server processes to run on each instance in a fleet.

Required: No

Type: List of ServerProcess

Maximum: 50
