## Options

`--compute-environment` (string) [required]

> The name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the compute environment to update.

`--state` (string)

> The state of the compute environment. Compute environments in the `ENABLED` state can accept jobs from a queue and scale in or out automatically based on the workload demand of its associated queues.

> If the state is `ENABLED` , then the Batch scheduler can attempt to place jobs from an associated job queue on the compute resources within the environment. If the compute environment is managed, then it can scale its instances out or in automatically, based on the job queue demand.

> If the state is `DISABLED` , then the Batch scheduler doesn’t attempt to place jobs within the environment. Jobs in a `STARTING` or `RUNNING` state continue to progress normally. Managed compute environments in the `DISABLED` state don’t scale out.

> #### NOTE
> Compute environments in a `DISABLED` state may continue to incur billing charges, for example, if they have running instances due to jobs that are still executing or a non-zero `minvCpus` setting. To prevent additional charges, disable and delete the compute environment.

> When an instance is idle, the instance scales down to the `minvCpus` value. However, the instance size doesn’t change. For example, consider a `c5.8xlarge` instance with a `minvCpus` value of `4` and a `desiredvCpus` value of `36` . This instance doesn’t scale down to a `c5.large` instance.

> Possible values:

> * `ENABLED`
> * `DISABLED`

`--unmanagedv-cpus` (integer)

> The maximum number of vCPUs expected to be used for an unmanaged compute environment. Don’t specify this parameter for a managed compute environment. This parameter is only used for fair-share scheduling to reserve vCPU capacity for new share identifiers. If this parameter isn’t provided for a fair-share job queue, no vCPU capacity is reserved.

`--compute-resources` (structure)

> Details of the compute resources managed by the compute environment. Required for a managed compute environment. For more information, see [Compute Environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/compute_environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> minvCpus -> (integer)

> > The minimum number of vCPUs that an environment should maintain (even if the compute environment is `DISABLED` ).

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> maxvCpus -> (integer)

> > The maximum number of Amazon EC2 vCPUs that an environment can reach.

> > #### NOTE
> > With any allocation strategy except `BEST_FIT` using On-Demand (`EC2` ) compute resources, Batch might need to exceed `maxvCpus` to meet your capacity requirements. In this event, Batch never exceeds `maxvCpus` by more than a single instance.

> desiredvCpus -> (integer)

> > The desired number of vCPUS in the compute environment. Batch modifies this value between the minimum and maximum values based on job queue demand.

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> > #### NOTE
> > Batch doesn’t support changing the desired number of vCPUs of an existing compute environment. Don’t specify this parameter for compute environments using Amazon EKS clusters.

> > #### NOTE
> > When you update the `desiredvCpus` setting, the value must be between the `minvCpus` and `maxvCpus` values.

> > Additionally, the updated `desiredvCpus` value must be greater than or equal to the current `desiredvCpus` value. For more information, see [Troubleshooting Batch](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/troubleshooting.html#error-desired-vcpus-update) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> subnets -> (list)

> > The VPC subnets where the compute resources are launched. Fargate compute resources can contain up to 16 subnets. For Fargate compute resources, providing an empty list will be handled as if this parameter wasn’t specified and no change is made. For Amazon EC2 compute resources, providing an empty list removes the VPC subnets from the compute resource. For more information, see [VPCs and subnets](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/VPC_Subnets.html) in the *Amazon VPC User Guide* .

> > When updating a compute environment, changing the VPC subnets requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > #### NOTE
> > Batch on Amazon EC2 and Batch on Amazon EKS support Local Zones. For more information, see [Local Zones](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-regions-availability-zones.html#concepts-local-zones) in the *Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances* , [Amazon EKS and Amazon Web Services Local Zones](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/local-zones.html) in the *Amazon EKS User Guide* and [Amazon ECS clusters in Local Zones, Wavelength Zones, and Amazon Web Services Outposts](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/cluster-regions-zones.html#clusters-local-zones) in the *Amazon ECS Developer Guide* .

> > Batch on Fargate doesn’t currently support Local Zones.

> > (string)

> securityGroupIds -> (list)

> > The Amazon EC2 security groups that are associated with instances launched in the compute environment. This parameter is required for Fargate compute resources, where it can contain up to 5 security groups. For Fargate compute resources, providing an empty list is handled as if this parameter wasn’t specified and no change is made. For Amazon EC2 compute resources, providing an empty list removes the security groups from the compute resource.

> > When updating a compute environment, changing the Amazon EC2 security groups requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > (string)

> allocationStrategy -> (string)

> > The allocation strategy to use for the compute resource if there’s not enough instances of the best fitting instance type that can be allocated. This might be because of availability of the instance type in the Region or [Amazon EC2 service limits](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-resource-limits.html) . For more information, see [Allocation strategies](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/allocation-strategies.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > When updating a compute environment, changing the allocation strategy requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* . `BEST_FIT` isn’t supported when updating a compute environment.

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> > BEST_FIT_PROGRESSIVE

> > Batch selects additional instance types that are large enough to meet the requirements of the jobs in the queue. Its preference is for instance types with lower cost vCPUs. If additional instances of the previously selected instance types aren’t available, Batch selects new instance types.

> > > BEST_FIT_PROGRESSIVE_ORDERED

> > #### WARNING
> > This is an advanced allocation strategy only for customers who want to control which instance types are preferred during scaling.

> > Placing large instance types at the top of the list may result in **over-provisioning** for small jobs. Placing small instance types at the top may cause the compute environment to reach Amazon EC2 instance count limits before reaching `maxvCpus` .

> > Batch selects instance types in the order they appear in the `instanceTypes` list. When an instance family is specified, sizes within that family are expanded using `BEST_FIT_PROGRESSIVE` logic—preferring sizes that best fit the jobs, with larger sizes as fallback. Instance types that cannot meet the resource requirements of the jobs are skipped. This strategy is only available for On-Demand Instance (`EC2` ) compute resources.

> > If an instance family and an explicit instance type from that family both appear in `instanceTypes` , the explicit type takes its listed position and is excluded from the family expansion. For example, in `["m7a.4xlarge", "m7a", "m6a"]` , `m7a.4xlarge` is always placed first and is excluded from the `m7a` family expansion.

> > > SPOT_CAPACITY_OPTIMIZED

> > Batch selects one or more instance types that are large enough to meet the requirements of the jobs in the queue. Its preference is for instance types that are less likely to be interrupted. This allocation strategy is only available for Spot Instance compute resources.

> > > SPOT_PRICE_CAPACITY_OPTIMIZED

> > The price and capacity optimized allocation strategy looks at both price and capacity to select the Spot Instance pools that are the least likely to be interrupted and have the lowest possible price. This allocation strategy is only available for Spot Instance compute resources.

> > > SPOT_CAPACITY_OPTIMIZED_PRIORITIZED

> > #### WARNING
> > This is an advanced allocation strategy for customers who want to influence instance type selection during scaling. This strategy optimizes for **capacity first** , and honors instance type priorities on a best-effort basis (priorities are honored when they do not significantly reduce available Spot capacity).

> > Placing large instance types at the top of the list may result in **over-provisioning** for small jobs. Placing small instance types at the top may cause the compute environment to reach Amazon EC2 instance count limits before reaching `maxvCpus` .

> > Batch selects instance types in the order they appear in the `instanceTypes` list, but **optimizes for capacity first** . The customer-defined priority is honored on a best-effort basis. When Spot Instance capacity pools are similarly available, priority order is respected. When capacity is constrained, Batch selects from the most available pools regardless of priority to minimize the likelihood of Spot Instance interruptions. This strategy is only available for Spot Instance compute resources.

> > With any allocation strategy except `BEST_FIT` using On-Demand (`EC2` ) compute resources, Batch might need to exceed `maxvCpus` to meet your capacity requirements. In this event, Batch never exceeds `maxvCpus` by more than a single instance.

> > Possible values:

> > * `BEST_FIT_PROGRESSIVE`
> > * `BEST_FIT_PROGRESSIVE_ORDERED`
> > * `SPOT_CAPACITY_OPTIMIZED`
> > * `SPOT_PRICE_CAPACITY_OPTIMIZED`
> > * `SPOT_CAPACITY_OPTIMIZED_PRIORITIZED`

> instanceTypes -> (list)

> > The instances types that can be launched. You can specify instance families to launch any instance type within those families (for example, `c5` or `p3` ), or you can specify specific sizes within a family (such as `c5.8xlarge` ).

> > Batch can select the instance type for you if you choose one of the following:

> > * `optimal` to select instance types (from the `c4` , `m4` , `r4` , `c5` , `m5` , and `r5` instance families) that match the demand of your job queues.
> > * `default_x86_64` to choose x86 based instance types (from the `m6i` , `c6i` , `r6i` , and `c7i` instance families) that matches the resource demands of the job queue.
> > * `default_arm64` to choose x86 based instance types (from the `m6g` , `c6g` , `r6g` , and `c7g` instance families) that matches the resource demands of the job queue.

> > #### NOTE
> > Starting on 11/01/2025 the behavior of `optimal` is going to be changed to match `default_x86_64` . During the change your instance families could be updated to a newer generation. You do not need to perform any actions for the upgrade to happen. For more information about change, see [Optimal instance type configuration to receive automatic instance family updates](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/optimal-default-instance-troubleshooting.html) .

> > #### NOTE
> > Instance family availability varies by Amazon Web Services Region. For example, some Amazon Web Services Regions may not have any fourth generation instance families but have fifth and sixth generation instance families.

> > When using `default_x86_64` or `default_arm64` instance bundles, Batch selects instance families based on a balance of cost-effectiveness and performance. While newer generation instances often provide better price-performance, Batch may choose an earlier generation instance family if it provides the optimal combination of availability, cost, and performance for your workload. For example, in an Amazon Web Services Region where both c6i and c7i instances are available, Batch might select c6i instances if they offer better cost-effectiveness for your specific job requirements. For more information on Batch instance types and Amazon Web Services Region availability, see [Instance type compute table](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/instance-type-compute-table.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > Batch periodically updates your instances in default bundles to newer, more cost-effective options. Updates happen automatically without requiring any action from you. Your workloads continue running during updates with no interruption

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> > #### NOTE
> > When you create a compute environment, the instance types that you select for the compute environment must share the same architecture. For example, you can’t mix x86 and ARM instances in the same compute environment.

> > (string)

> ec2KeyPair -> (string)

> > The Amazon EC2 key pair that’s used for instances launched in the compute environment. You can use this key pair to log in to your instances with SSH. To remove the Amazon EC2 key pair, set this value to an empty string.

> > When updating a compute environment, changing the Amazon EC2 key pair requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> instanceRole -> (string)

> > The Amazon ECS instance profile applied to Amazon EC2 instances in a compute environment. Required for Amazon EC2 instances. You can specify the short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an instance profile. For example, \`\` *ecsInstanceRole* \`\` or \`\`arn:aws:iam:: *<aws_account_id>* :instance-profile/*ecsInstanceRole* \`\` . For more information, see [Amazon ECS instance role](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/instance_IAM_role.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > When updating a compute environment, changing this setting requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> tags -> (map)

> > Key-value pair tags to be applied to Amazon EC2 resources that are launched in the compute environment. For Batch, these take the form of `"String1": "String2"` , where `String1` is the tag key and `String2` is the tag value (for example, `{ "Name": "Batch Instance - C4OnDemand" }` ). This is helpful for recognizing your Batch instances in the Amazon EC2 console. These tags aren’t seen when using the Batch `ListTagsForResource` API operation.

> > When updating a compute environment, changing this setting requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> > key -> (string)

> > value -> (string)

> placementGroup -> (string)

> > The Amazon EC2 placement group to associate with your compute resources. If you intend to submit multi-node parallel jobs to your compute environment, you should consider creating a cluster placement group and associate it with your compute resources. This keeps your multi-node parallel job on a logical grouping of instances within a single Availability Zone with high network flow potential. For more information, see [Placement groups](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/placement-groups.html) in the *Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances* .

> > When updating a compute environment, changing the placement group requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment.

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> bidPercentage -> (integer)

> > The maximum percentage that a Spot Instance price can be when compared with the On-Demand price for that instance type before instances are launched. For example, if your maximum percentage is 20%, the Spot price must be less than 20% of the current On-Demand price for that Amazon EC2 instance. You always pay the lowest (market) price and never more than your maximum percentage. For most use cases, we recommend leaving this field empty.

> > When updating a compute environment, changing the bid percentage requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> > #### NOTE
> > This parameter isn’t applicable to jobs that are running on Fargate resources. Don’t specify it.

> launchTemplate -> (structure)

> > The updated launch template to use for your compute resources. You must specify either the launch template ID or launch template name in the request, but not both. For more information, see [Launch template support](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/launch-templates.html) in the *Batch User Guide* . To remove the custom launch template and use the default launch template, set `launchTemplateId` or `launchTemplateName` member of the launch template specification to an empty string. Removing the launch template from a compute environment will not remove the AMI specified in the launch template. In order to update the AMI specified in a launch template, the `updateToLatestImageVersion` parameter must be set to `true` .

> > When updating a compute environment, changing the launch template requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment.

> > > If the value is `$Default` , the default version of the launch template is used. If the value is `$Latest` , the latest version of the launch template is used.

> > > #### WARNING
> > > If the AMI ID that’s used in a compute environment is from the launch template, the AMI isn’t changed when the compute environment is updated. It’s only changed if the `updateToLatestImageVersion` parameter for the compute environment is set to `true` . During an infrastructure update, if either `$Default` or `$Latest` is specified, Batch re-evaluates the launch template version, and it might use a different version of the launch template. This is the case even if the launch template isn’t specified in the update. When updating a compute environment, changing the launch template requires an infrastructure update of the compute environment.

> #### WARNING
> If the compute environment has a service-linked role, it can’t be changed to use a regular IAM role. Likewise, if the compute environment has a regular IAM role, it can’t be changed to use a service-linked role. To update the parameters for the compute environment that require an infrastructure update to change, the **AWSServiceRoleForBatch** service-linked role must be used. For more information, see [Updating compute environments](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/updating-compute-environments.html) in the *Batch User Guide* .

> If your specified role has a path other than `/` , then you must either specify the full role ARN (recommended) or prefix the role name with the path.

> #### NOTE
> Depending on how you created your Batch service role, its ARN might contain the `service-role` path prefix. When you only specify the name of the service role, Batch assumes that your ARN doesn’t use the `service-role` path prefix. Because of this, we recommend that you specify the full ARN of your service role when you create compute environments.

`--cli-input-json` | `--cli-input-yaml` (string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by `--generate-cli-skeleton`. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with `--cli-input-yaml`.

`--generate-cli-skeleton` (string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value `input`, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for `--cli-input-json`. Similarly, if provided `yaml-input` it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with `--cli-input-yaml`. If provided with the value `output`, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

## Global Options

`--debug` (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

`--endpoint-url` (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

`--no-verify-ssl` (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

`--no-paginate` (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

`--output` (string)

The formatting style for command output.

* json
* text
* table
* yaml
* yaml-stream
* off

`--query` (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

`--profile` (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

`--region` (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

`--version` (string)

Display the version of this tool.

`--color` (string)

Turn on/off color output.

* on
* off
* auto

`--no-sign-request` (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

`--ca-bundle` (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

`--cli-read-timeout` (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

`--cli-connect-timeout` (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

`--cli-binary-format` (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob `fileb://` will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the `cli-binary-format` setting. When using `file://` the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured `cli-binary-format`.

* base64
* raw-in-base64-out

`--no-cli-pager` (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

`--cli-auto-prompt` (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

`--no-cli-auto-prompt` (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

`--cli-error-format` (string)

The formatting style for error output. By default, errors are displayed in enhanced format.

* legacy
* json
* yaml
* text
* table
* enhanced

## Examples

#### NOTE
To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the [Getting started guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-getting-started.html) in the *AWS CLI User Guide* for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See [Using quotation marks with strings](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-usage-parameters-quoting-strings.html) in the *AWS CLI User Guide* .

**To update a compute environment**

The following `update-compute-environment` example disables the P2OnDemand compute environment so it can be deleted.

```bash
aws batch update-compute-environment \
    --compute-environment P2OnDemand \
    --state DISABLED
```

Output:

```json
{
    "computeEnvironmentName": "P2OnDemand",
    "computeEnvironmentArn": "arn:aws:batch:us-west-2:123456789012:compute-environment/P2OnDemand"
}
```
