Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager 2018-01-12
- Client: Aws\DLM\DLMClient
- Service ID: dlm
- Version: 2018-01-12
This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager (2018-01-12), and shows how to use the Aws\DLM\DLMClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2018-01-12 API version of the service.
Operation Summary
Each of the following operations can be created from a client using
$client->getCommand('CommandName')
, where "CommandName" is the
name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that
encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.
You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods
available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */)
.
You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the
word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */)
.

Parameters
Description
[Snapshot and AMI policies only] Specifies optional parameters for snapshot and AMI policies. The set of valid parameters depends on the combination of policy type and target resource type.
If you choose to exclude boot volumes and you specify tags that consequently exclude all of the additional data volumes attached to an instance, then Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager will not create any snapshots for the affected instance, and it will emit a SnapshotsCreateFailed
Amazon CloudWatch metric. For more information, see Monitor your policies using Amazon CloudWatch.
Members
- ExcludeBootVolume
-
- Type: boolean
[Snapshot policies that target instances only] Indicates whether to exclude the root volume from multi-volume snapshot sets. The default is
false
. If you specifytrue
, then the root volumes attached to targeted instances will be excluded from the multi-volume snapshot sets created by the policy. - ExcludeDataVolumeTags
-
- Type: Array of Tag structures
[Snapshot policies that target instances only] The tags used to identify data (non-root) volumes to exclude from multi-volume snapshot sets.
If you create a snapshot lifecycle policy that targets instances and you specify tags for this parameter, then data volumes with the specified tags that are attached to targeted instances will be excluded from the multi-volume snapshot sets created by the policy.
- NoReboot
-
- Type: boolean
[AMI policies only] Indicates whether targeted instances are rebooted when the lifecycle policy runs.
true
indicates that targeted instances are not rebooted when the policy runs.false
indicates that target instances are rebooted when the policy runs. The default istrue
(instances are not rebooted).

EBS_SNAPSHOT_MANAGEMENT
. - ResourceLocations

CLOUD
. If the source resources are located on an Outpost in your account, specifyOUTPOST

RetainRule
Description
[Snapshot and AMI policies only] Specifies a retention rule for snapshots created by snapshot policies, or for AMIs created by AMI policies.
For snapshot policies that have an ArchiveRule, this retention rule applies to standard tier retention. When the retention threshold is met, snapshots are moved from the standard to the archive tier.
For snapshot policies that do not have an ArchiveRule, snapshots are permanently deleted when this retention threshold is met.
You can retain snapshots based on either a count or a time interval.
-
Count-based retention
You must specify Count. If you specify an ArchiveRule for the schedule, then you can specify a retention count of
0
to archive snapshots immediately after creation. If you specify a FastRestoreRule, ShareRule, or a CrossRegionCopyRule, then you must specify a retention count of1
or more. -
Age-based retention
You must specify Interval and IntervalUnit. If you specify an ArchiveRule for the schedule, then you can specify a retention interval of
0
days to archive snapshots immediately after creation. If you specify a FastRestoreRule, ShareRule, or a CrossRegionCopyRule, then you must specify a retention interval of1
day or more.
Members
- Count
-
- Type: int
The number of snapshots to retain for each volume, up to a maximum of 1000. For example if you want to retain a maximum of three snapshots, specify
3
. When the fourth snapshot is created, the oldest retained snapshot is deleted, or it is moved to the archive tier if you have specified an ArchiveRule. - Interval
-
- Type: int
The amount of time to retain each snapshot. The maximum is 100 years. This is equivalent to 1200 months, 5200 weeks, or 36500 days.
- IntervalUnit
-
- Type: string
The unit of time for time-based retention. For example, to retain snapshots for 3 months, specify
Interval=3
andIntervalUnit=MONTHS
. Once the snapshot has been retained for 3 months, it is deleted, or it is moved to the archive tier if you have specified an ArchiveRule.
RetentionArchiveTier
Description
[Snapshot policies only] Describes the retention rule for archived snapshots. Once the archive retention threshold is met, the snapshots are permanently deleted from the archive tier.
The archive retention rule must retain snapshots in the archive tier for a minimum of 90 days.
For count-based schedules, you must specify Count. For age-based schedules, you must specify Interval and IntervalUnit.
For more information about using snapshot archiving, see Considerations for snapshot lifecycle policies.
Members
- Count
-
- Type: int
The maximum number of snapshots to retain in the archive storage tier for each volume. The count must ensure that each snapshot remains in the archive tier for at least 90 days. For example, if the schedule creates snapshots every 30 days, you must specify a count of 3 or more to ensure that each snapshot is archived for at least 90 days.
- Interval
-
- Type: int
Specifies the period of time to retain snapshots in the archive tier. After this period expires, the snapshot is permanently deleted.
- IntervalUnit
-
- Type: string
The unit of time in which to measure the Interval. For example, to retain a snapshots in the archive tier for 6 months, specify
Interval=6
andIntervalUnit=MONTHS
.
Schedule
Description
[Snapshot and AMI policies only] Specifies a schedule for a snapshot or AMI lifecycle policy.
Members
- ArchiveRule
-
- Type: ArchiveRule structure
[Snapshot policies that target volumes only] The snapshot archiving rule for the schedule. When you specify an archiving rule, snapshots are automatically moved from the standard tier to the archive tier once the schedule's retention threshold is met. Snapshots are then retained in the archive tier for the archive retention period that you specify.
For more information about using snapshot archiving, see Considerations for snapshot lifecycle policies.
