Auto Scaling 2011-01-01
- Client: Aws\AutoScaling\AutoScalingClient
- Service ID: autoscaling
- Version: 2011-01-01
This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the Auto Scaling (2011-01-01), and shows how to use the Aws\AutoScaling\AutoScalingClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2011-01-01 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 */)

Paginators
Paginators handle automatically iterating over paginated API results. Paginators are associated with specific API operations, and they accept the parameters that the corresponding API operation accepts. You can get a paginator from a client class using getPaginator($paginatorName, $operationParameters). This client supports the following paginators:
- DescribeAutoScalingGroups
- DescribeAutoScalingInstances
- DescribeInstanceRefreshes
- DescribeLaunchConfigurations
- DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups
- DescribeLoadBalancers
- DescribeNotificationConfigurations
- DescribePolicies
- DescribeScalingActivities
- DescribeScheduledActions
- DescribeTags
- DescribeTrafficSources
- DescribeWarmPool
Waiters
Waiters allow you to poll a resource until it enters into a desired state. A waiter has a name used to describe what it does, and is associated with an API operation. When creating a waiter, you can provide the API operation parameters associated with the corresponding operation. Waiters can be accessed using the getWaiter($waiterName, $operationParameters) method of a client object. This client supports the following waiters:
Waiter name | API Operation | Delay | Max Attempts |
---|---|---|---|
GroupExists | DescribeAutoScalingGroups | 5 | 10 |
GroupInService | DescribeAutoScalingGroups | 15 | 40 |
GroupNotExists | DescribeAutoScalingGroups | 15 | 40 |
Operations
AttachInstances
$result = $client->attachInstances
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->attachInstancesAsync
([/* ... */]);
Attaches one or more EC2 instances to the specified Auto Scaling group.
When you attach instances, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling increases the desired capacity of the group by the number of instances being attached. If the number of instances being attached plus the desired capacity of the group exceeds the maximum size of the group, the operation fails.
If there is a Classic Load Balancer attached to your Auto Scaling group, the instances are also registered with the load balancer. If there are target groups attached to your Auto Scaling group, the instances are also registered with the target groups.
For more information, see Detach or attach instances in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

AttachLoadBalancerTargetGroups
$result = $client->attachLoadBalancerTargetGroups
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->attachLoadBalancerTargetGroupsAsync
([/* ... */]);
This API operation is superseded by AttachTrafficSources, which can attach multiple traffic sources types. We recommend using AttachTrafficSources
to simplify how you manage traffic sources. However, we continue to support AttachLoadBalancerTargetGroups
. You can use both the original AttachLoadBalancerTargetGroups
API operation and AttachTrafficSources
on the same Auto Scaling group.
Attaches one or more target groups to the specified Auto Scaling group.
This operation is used with the following load balancer types:
-
Application Load Balancer - Operates at the application layer (layer 7) and supports HTTP and HTTPS.
-
Network Load Balancer - Operates at the transport layer (layer 4) and supports TCP, TLS, and UDP.
-
Gateway Load Balancer - Operates at the network layer (layer 3).
To describe the target groups for an Auto Scaling group, call the DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups API. To detach the target group from the Auto Scaling group, call the DetachLoadBalancerTargetGroups API.
This operation is additive and does not detach existing target groups or Classic Load Balancers from the Auto Scaling group.

CompleteLifecycleAction
$result = $client->completeLifecycleAction
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->completeLifecycleActionAsync
([/* ... */]);
Completes the lifecycle action for the specified token or instance with the specified result.
This step is a part of the procedure for adding a lifecycle hook to an Auto Scaling group:
-
(Optional) Create a launch template or launch configuration with a user data script that runs while an instance is in a wait state due to a lifecycle hook.
-
(Optional) Create a Lambda function and a rule that allows Amazon EventBridge to invoke your Lambda function when an instance is put into a wait state due to a lifecycle hook.
-
(Optional) Create a notification target and an IAM role. The target can be either an Amazon SQS queue or an Amazon SNS topic. The role allows Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to publish lifecycle notifications to the target.
-
Create the lifecycle hook. Specify whether the hook is used when the instances launch or terminate.
-
If you need more time, record the lifecycle action heartbeat to keep the instance in a wait state.
-
If you finish before the timeout period ends, send a callback by using the CompleteLifecycleAction API call.
For more information, see Complete a lifecycle action in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
Parameter Syntax
$result = $client->completeLifecycleAction([ 'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED 'InstanceId' => '<string>', 'LifecycleActionResult' => '<string>', // REQUIRED 'LifecycleActionToken' => '<string>', 'LifecycleHookName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED ]);

([/* ... */]);
We strongly recommend using a launch template when calling this operation to ensure full functionality for Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling and Amazon EC2.
Creates an Auto Scaling group with the specified name and attributes.
If you exceed your maximum limit of Auto Scaling groups, the call fails. To query this limit, call the DescribeAccountLimits API. For information about updating this limit, see Quotas for Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
If you're new to Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling, see the introductory tutorials in Get started with Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
Every Auto Scaling group has three size properties (DesiredCapacity
, MaxSize
, and MinSize
). Usually, you set these sizes based on a specific number of instances. However, if you configure a mixed instances policy that defines weights for the instance types, you must specify these sizes with the same units that you use for weighting instances.

DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups

This API operation is superseded by DescribeTrafficSources, which can describe multiple traffic sources types. We recommend using DetachTrafficSources
to simplify how you manage traffic sources. However, we continue to support DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups
. You can use both the original DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups
API operation and DescribeTrafficSources
on the same Auto Scaling group.
Gets information about the Elastic Load Balancing target groups for the specified Auto Scaling group.
To determine the attachment status of the target group, use the State
element in the response. When you attach a target group to an Auto Scaling group, the initial State
value is Adding
. The state transitions to Added
after all Auto Scaling instances are registered with the target group. If Elastic Load Balancing health checks are enabled for the Auto Scaling group, the state transitions to InService
after at least one Auto Scaling instance passes the health check. When the target group is in the InService
state, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling can terminate and replace any instances that are reported as unhealthy. If no registered instances pass the health checks, the target group doesn't enter the InService
state.
Target groups also have an InService
state if you attach them in the CreateAutoScalingGroup API call. If your target group state is InService
, but it is not working properly, check the scaling activities by calling DescribeScalingActivities and take any corrective actions necessary.
For help with failed health checks, see Troubleshooting Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling: Health checks in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide. For more information, see Use Elastic Load Balancing to distribute traffic across the instances in your Auto Scaling group in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
You can use this operation to describe target groups that were attached by using AttachLoadBalancerTargetGroups, but not for target groups that were attached by using AttachTrafficSources.

Gets information about the load balancers for the specified Auto Scaling group.
This operation describes only Classic Load Balancers. If you have Application Load Balancers, Network Load Balancers, or Gateway Load Balancers, use the DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups API instead.
To determine the attachment status of the load balancer, use the State

PutLifecycleHook
$result = $client->putLifecycleHook
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->putLifecycleHookAsync
([/* ... */]);
Creates or updates a lifecycle hook for the specified Auto Scaling group.
Lifecycle hooks let you create solutions that are aware of events in the Auto Scaling instance lifecycle, and then perform a custom action on instances when the corresponding lifecycle event occurs.
This step is a part of the procedure for adding a lifecycle hook to an Auto Scaling group:
-
(Optional) Create a launch template or launch configuration with a user data script that runs while an instance is in a wait state due to a lifecycle hook.
-
(Optional) Create a Lambda function and a rule that allows Amazon EventBridge to invoke your Lambda function when an instance is put into a wait state due to a lifecycle hook.
-
(Optional) Create a notification target and an IAM role. The target can be either an Amazon SQS queue or an Amazon SNS topic. The role allows Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to publish lifecycle notifications to the target.
-
Create the lifecycle hook. Specify whether the hook is used when the instances launch or terminate.
-
If you need more time, record the lifecycle action heartbeat to keep the instance in a wait state using the RecordLifecycleActionHeartbeat API call.
-
If you finish before the timeout period ends, send a callback by using the CompleteLifecycleAction API call.
For more information, see Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling lifecycle hooks in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
If you exceed your maximum limit of lifecycle hooks, which by default is 50 per Auto Scaling group, the call fails.
You can view the lifecycle hooks for an Auto Scaling group using the DescribeLifecycleHooks API call. If you are no longer using a lifecycle hook, you can delete it by calling the DeleteLifecycleHook API.
Parameter Syntax
$result = $client->putLifecycleHook([ 'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED 'DefaultResult' => '<string>', 'HeartbeatTimeout' => <integer>, 'LifecycleHookName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED 'LifecycleTransition' => '<string>', 'NotificationMetadata' => '<string>', 'NotificationTargetARN' => '<string>', 'RoleARN' => '<string>', ]);

- NotificationTargetARN
-
- Type: string
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the notification target that Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses to notify you when an instance is in a wait state for the lifecycle hook. You can specify either an Amazon SNS topic or an Amazon SQS queue.
If you specify an empty string, this overrides the current ARN.
This operation uses the JSON format when sending notifications to an Amazon SQS queue, and an email key-value pair format when sending notifications to an Amazon SNS topic.
When you specify a notification target, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling sends it a test message. Test messages contain the following additional key-value pair:
"Event": "autoscaling:TEST_NOTIFICATION"
. - RoleARN
-
- Type: string
The ARN of the IAM role that allows the Auto Scaling group to publish to the specified notification target.

Examples
Example 1: To add a scheduled action to an Auto Scaling group
This example adds the specified scheduled action to the specified Auto Scaling group.
$result = $client->putScheduledUpdateGroupAction([ 'AutoScalingGroupName' => 'my-auto-scaling-group', 'DesiredCapacity' => 4, 'EndTime' =>, 'MaxSize' => 6, 'MinSize' => 2, 'ScheduledActionName' => 'my-scheduled-action', 'StartTime' => , ]);
PutWarmPool
$result = $client->putWarmPool
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->putWarmPoolAsync
([/* ... */]);
Creates or updates a warm pool for the specified Auto Scaling group. A warm pool is a pool of pre-initialized EC2 instances that sits alongside the Auto Scaling group. Whenever your application needs to scale out, the Auto Scaling group can draw on the warm pool to meet its new desired capacity.
This operation must be called from the Region in which the Auto Scaling group was created.
You can view the instances in the warm pool using the DescribeWarmPool API call. If you are no longer using a warm pool, you can delete it by calling the DeleteWarmPool API.
For more information, see Warm pools for Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
Parameter Syntax
$result = $client->putWarmPool([ 'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED 'InstanceReusePolicy' => [ 'ReuseOnScaleIn' => true || false, ], 'MaxGroupPreparedCapacity' => <integer>, 'MinSize' => <integer>, 'PoolState' => 'Stopped|Running|Hibernated', ]);
Parameter Details
Members
- AutoScalingGroupName
-
- Required: Yes
- Type: string
The name of the Auto Scaling group.
- InstanceReusePolicy
-
- Type: InstanceReusePolicy structure
Indicates whether instances in the Auto Scaling group can be returned to the warm pool on scale in. The default is to terminate instances in the Auto Scaling group when the group scales in.
- MaxGroupPreparedCapacity
-
- Type: int
Specifies the maximum number of instances that are allowed to be in the warm pool or in any state except
Terminated
for the Auto Scaling group. This is an optional property. Specify it only if you do not want the warm pool size to be determined by the difference between the group's maximum capacity and its desired capacity.If a value for
MaxGroupPreparedCapacity
is not specified, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches and maintains the difference between the group's maximum capacity and its desired capacity. If you specify a value forMaxGroupPreparedCapacity
, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses the difference between theMaxGroupPreparedCapacity
and the desired capacity instead.The size of the warm pool is dynamic. Only when
MaxGroupPreparedCapacity
andMinSize
are set to the same value does the warm pool have an absolute size.If the desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group is higher than the
MaxGroupPreparedCapacity
, the capacity of the warm pool is 0, unless you specify a value forMinSize
. To remove a value that you previously set, include the property but specify -1 for the value. - MinSize
-
- Type: int
Specifies the minimum number of instances to maintain in the warm pool. This helps you to ensure that there is always a certain number of warmed instances available to handle traffic spikes. Defaults to 0 if not specified.
- PoolState

RecordLifecycleActionHeartbeat
$result = $client->recordLifecycleActionHeartbeat
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->recordLifecycleActionHeartbeatAsync
([/* ... */]);
Records a heartbeat for the lifecycle action associated with the specified token or instance. This extends the timeout by the length of time defined using the PutLifecycleHook API call.
This step is a part of the procedure for adding a lifecycle hook to an Auto Scaling group:
-
(Optional) Create a launch template or launch configuration with a user data script that runs while an instance is in a wait state due to a lifecycle hook.
-
(Optional) Create a Lambda function and a rule that allows Amazon EventBridge to invoke your Lambda function when an instance is put into a wait state due to a lifecycle hook.
-
(Optional) Create a notification target and an IAM role. The target can be either an Amazon SQS queue or an Amazon SNS topic. The role allows Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to publish lifecycle notifications to the target.
-
Create the lifecycle hook. Specify whether the hook is used when the instances launch or terminate.
-
If you need more time, record the lifecycle action heartbeat to keep the instance in a wait state.
-
If you finish before the timeout period ends, send a callback by using the CompleteLifecycleAction API call.
For more information, see Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling lifecycle hooks in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

RollbackInstanceRefresh
$result = $client->rollbackInstanceRefresh
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->rollbackInstanceRefreshAsync
([/* ... */]);
Cancels an instance refresh that is in progress and rolls back any changes that it made. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling replaces any instances that were replaced during the instance refresh. This restores your Auto Scaling group to the configuration that it was using before the start of the instance refresh.
This operation is part of the instance refresh feature in Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling, which helps you update instances in your Auto Scaling group after you make configuration changes.
A rollback is not supported in the following situations:
-
There is no desired configuration specified for the instance refresh.
-
The Auto Scaling group has a launch template that uses an Amazon Web Services Systems Manager parameter instead of an AMI ID for the
ImageId
property. -
The Auto Scaling group uses the launch template's
$Latest
or$Default
version.
When you receive a successful response from this operation, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling immediately begins replacing instances. You can check the status of this operation through the DescribeInstanceRefreshes API operation.

StartInstanceRefresh
$result = $client->startInstanceRefresh
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->startInstanceRefreshAsync
([/* ... */]);
Starts an instance refresh.
This operation is part of the instance refresh feature in Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling, which helps you update instances in your Auto Scaling group. This feature is helpful, for example, when you have a new AMI or a new user data script. You just need to create a new launch template that specifies the new AMI or user data script. Then start an instance refresh to immediately begin the process of updating instances in the group.
If successful, the request's response contains a unique ID that you can use to track the progress of the instance refresh. To query its status, call the DescribeInstanceRefreshes API. To describe the instance refreshes that have already run, call the DescribeInstanceRefreshes API. To cancel an instance refresh that is in progress, use the CancelInstanceRefresh API.
An instance refresh might fail for several reasons, such as EC2 launch failures, misconfigured health checks, or not ignoring or allowing the termination of instances that are in Standby
state or protected from scale in. You can monitor for failed EC2 launches using the scaling activities. To find the scaling activities, call the DescribeScalingActivities API.
If you enable auto rollback, your Auto Scaling group will be rolled back automatically when the instance refresh fails. You can enable this feature before starting an instance refresh by specifying the AutoRollback
property in the instance refresh preferences. Otherwise, to roll back an instance refresh before it finishes, use the RollbackInstanceRefresh API.

Terminates the specified instance and optionally adjusts the desired group size. This operation cannot be called on instances in a warm pool.
This call simply makes a termination request. The instance is not terminated immediately. When an instance is terminated, the instance status changes to terminated
. You can't connect to or start an instance after you've terminated it.
If you do not specify the option to decrement the desired capacity, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches instances to replace the ones that are terminated.
By default, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling balances instances across all Availability Zones. If you decrement the desired capacity, your Auto Scaling group can become unbalanced between Availability Zones. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling tries to rebalance the group, and rebalancing might terminate instances in other zones. For more information, see Manual scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

Examples
Example 1: To terminate an instance in an Auto Scaling group
This example terminates the specified instance from the specified Auto Scaling group without updating the size of the group. Auto Scaling launches a replacement instance after the specified instance terminates.
$result = $client->terminateInstanceInAutoScalingGroup([ 'InstanceId' => 'i-93633f9b', 'ShouldDecrementDesiredCapacity' => , ]);
UpdateAutoScalingGroup
$result = $client->updateAutoScalingGroup
([/* ... */]); $promise = $client->updateAutoScalingGroupAsync
([/* ... */]);
We strongly recommend that all Auto Scaling groups use launch templates to ensure full functionality for Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling and Amazon EC2.
Updates the configuration for the specified Auto Scaling group.
To update an Auto Scaling group, specify the name of the group and the property that you want to change. Any properties that you don't specify are not changed by this update request. The new settings take effect on any scaling activities after this call returns.
If you associate a new launch configuration or template with an Auto Scaling group, all new instances will get the updated configuration. Existing instances continue to run with the configuration that they were originally launched with. When you update a group to specify a mixed instances policy instead of a launch configuration or template, existing instances may be replaced to match the new purchasing options that you specified in the policy. For example, if the group currently has 100% On-Demand capacity and the policy specifies 50% Spot capacity, this means that half of your instances will be gradually terminated and relaunched as Spot Instances. When replacing instances, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches new instances before terminating the old ones, so that updating your group does not compromise the performance or availability of your application.
Note the following about changing DesiredCapacity
, MaxSize
, or MinSize
:
-
If a scale-in activity occurs as a result of a new
DesiredCapacity
value that is lower than the current size of the group, the Auto Scaling group uses its termination policy to determine which instances to terminate. -
If you specify a new value for
MinSize
without specifying a value forDesiredCapacity
, and the newMinSize
is larger than the current size of the group, this sets the group'sDesiredCapacity
to the newMinSize
value. -
If you specify a new value for
MaxSize
without specifying a value forDesiredCapacity
, and the newMaxSize
is smaller than the current size of the group, this sets the group'sDesiredCapacity
to the newMaxSize
value.

- DefaultInstanceWarmup
-
- Type: int
The amount of time, in seconds, until a new instance is considered to have finished initializing and resource consumption to become stable after it enters the
InService
state.During an instance refresh, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling waits for the warm-up period after it replaces an instance before it moves on to replacing the next instance. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling also waits for the warm-up period before aggregating the metrics for new instances with existing instances in the Amazon CloudWatch metrics that are used for scaling, resulting in more reliable usage data. For more information, see Set the default instance warmup for an Auto Scaling group in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
To manage various warm-up settings at the group level, we recommend that you set the default instance warmup, even if it is set to 0 seconds. To remove a value that you previously set, include the property but specify
-1
for the value. However, we strongly recommend keeping the default instance warmup enabled by specifying a value of0
or other nominal value. - DesiredCapacity

CustomizedMetricSpecification
Description
Represents a CloudWatch metric of your choosing for a target tracking scaling policy to use with Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling.
To create your customized metric specification:
-
Add values for each required property from CloudWatch. You can use an existing metric, or a new metric that you create. To use your own metric, you must first publish the metric to CloudWatch. For more information, see Publish custom metrics in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.
-
Choose a metric that changes proportionally with capacity. The value of the metric should increase or decrease in inverse proportion to the number of capacity units. That is, the value of the metric should decrease when capacity increases.
For more information about the CloudWatch terminology below, see Amazon CloudWatch concepts.
Each individual service provides information about the metrics, namespace, and dimensions they use. For more information, see Amazon Web Services services that publish CloudWatch metrics in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.

This is the default value for Auto Scaling groups that don't specify InstanceRequirements and cannot be used for groups that do.
- OnDemandBaseCapacity
-
- Type: int
The minimum amount of the Auto Scaling group's capacity that must be fulfilled by On-Demand Instances. This base portion is launched first as your group scales.
This number has the same unit of measurement as the group's desired capacity. If you change the default unit of measurement (number of instances) by specifying weighted capacity values in your launch template overrides list, or by changing the default desired capacity type setting of the group, you must specify this number using the same unit of measurement.
Default: 0
- OnDemandPercentageAboveBaseCapacity
-
- Type: int
Controls the percentages of On-Demand Instances and Spot Instances for your additional capacity beyond
OnDemandBaseCapacity
. Expressed as a number (for example, 20 specifies 20% On-Demand Instances, 80% Spot Instances). If set to 100, only On-Demand Instances are used.Default: 100
- SpotAllocationStrategy
-
- Type: string
The allocation strategy to apply to your Spot Instances when they are launched. Possible instance types are determined by the launch template overrides that you specify.
The following lists the valid values:
- capacity-optimized
-
Requests Spot Instances using pools that are optimally chosen based on the available Spot capacity. This strategy has the lowest risk of interruption. To give certain instance types a higher chance of launching first, use
capacity-optimized-prioritized
. - capacity-optimized-prioritized
-
You set the order of instance types for the launch template overrides from highest to lowest priority (from first to last in the list). Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling honors the instance type priorities on a best effort basis but optimizes for capacity first. Note that if the On-Demand allocation strategy is set to
prioritized
, the same priority is applied when fulfilling On-Demand capacity. This is not a valid value for Auto Scaling groups that specify InstanceRequirements. - lowest-price
-
Requests Spot Instances using the lowest priced pools within an Availability Zone, across the number of Spot pools that you specify for the
SpotInstancePools
property. To ensure that your desired capacity is met, you might receive Spot Instances from several pools. This is the default value, but it might lead to high interruption rates because this strategy only considers instance price and not available capacity. - price-capacity-optimized (recommended)
-
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.
- SpotInstancePools
-
- Type: int
The number of Spot Instance pools across which to allocate your Spot Instances. The Spot pools are determined from the different instance types in the overrides. Valid only when the
SpotAllocationStrategy
islowest-price
. Value must be in the range of 1–20.Default: 2
- SpotMaxPrice
-
- Type: string
The maximum price per unit hour that you are willing to pay for a Spot Instance. If your maximum price is lower than the Spot price for the instance types that you selected, your Spot Instances are not launched. We do not recommend specifying a maximum price because it can lead to increased interruptions. When Spot Instances launch, you pay the current Spot price. To remove a maximum price that you previously set, include the property but specify an empty string ("") for the value.
If you specify a maximum price, your instances will be interrupted more frequently than if you do not specify one.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 0.001
InvalidNextToken

- Overrides
-
- Type: Array of LaunchTemplateOverrides structures
Any properties that you specify override the same properties in the launch template.
LaunchTemplateOverrides
Description
Use this structure to let Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling do the following when the Auto Scaling group has a mixed instances policy:
-
Override the instance type that is specified in the launch template.
-
Use multiple instance types.
Specify the instance types that you want, or define your instance requirements instead and let Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling provision the available instance types that meet your requirements. This can provide Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling with a larger selection of instance types to choose from when fulfilling Spot and On-Demand capacities. You can view which instance types are matched before you apply the instance requirements to your Auto Scaling group.
After you define your instance requirements, you don't have to keep updating these settings to get new EC2 instance types automatically. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses the instance requirements of the Auto Scaling group to determine whether a new EC2 instance type can be used.
Members
- InstanceRequirements
-
- Type: InstanceRequirements structure
The instance requirements. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses your specified requirements to identify instance types. Then, it uses your On-Demand and Spot allocation strategies to launch instances from these instance types.
You can specify up to four separate sets of instance requirements per Auto Scaling group. This is useful for provisioning instances from different Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) in the same Auto Scaling group. To do this, create the AMIs and create a new launch template for each AMI. Then, create a compatible set of instance requirements for each launch template.
If you specify
InstanceRequirements
, you can't specifyInstanceType
. - InstanceType
-
- Type: string
The instance type, such as
m3.xlarge
. You must specify an instance type that is supported in your requested Region and Availability Zones. For more information, see Instance types in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.You can specify up to 40 instance types per Auto Scaling group.
- LaunchTemplateSpecification
-
- Type: LaunchTemplateSpecification structure
Provides a launch template for the specified instance type or set of instance requirements. For example, some instance types might require a launch template with a different AMI. If not provided, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses the launch template that's specified in the
LaunchTemplate
definition. For more information, see Specifying a different launch template for an instance type in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.You can specify up to 20 launch templates per Auto Scaling group. The launch templates specified in the overrides and in the
LaunchTemplate
definition count towards this limit. - WeightedCapacity
-
- Type: string
If you provide a list of instance types to use, you can specify the number of capacity units provided by each instance type in terms of virtual CPUs, memory, storage, throughput, or other relative performance characteristic. When a Spot or On-Demand Instance is launched, the capacity units count toward the desired capacity. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches instances until the desired capacity is totally fulfilled, even if this results in an overage. For example, if there are two units remaining to fulfill capacity, and Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling can only launch an instance with a
WeightedCapacity
of five units, the instance is launched, and the desired capacity is exceeded by three units. For more information, see Configure an Auto Scaling group to use instance weights in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide. Value must be in the range of 1–999.If you specify a value for
WeightedCapacity
for one instance type, you must specify a value forWeightedCapacity
for all of them.Every Auto Scaling group has three size parameters (
DesiredCapacity
,MaxSize
, andMinSize
). Usually, you set these sizes based on a specific number of instances. However, if you configure a mixed instances policy that defines weights for the instance types, you must specify these sizes with the same units that you use for weighting instances.

For example, if the buffer is 10, this means a 10 percent buffer, such that if the forecast capacity is 50, and the maximum capacity is 40, then the effective maximum capacity is 55.
If set to 0, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling may scale capacity higher than the maximum capacity to equal but not exceed forecast capacity.
Required if the
MaxCapacityBreachBehavior
property is set toIncreaseMaxCapacity
, and cannot be used otherwise. - MetricSpecifications
-
- Required: Yes
- Type: Array of PredictiveScalingMetricSpecification structures
This structure includes the metrics and target utilization to use for predictive scaling.
This is an array, but we currently only support a single metric specification. That is, you can specify a target value and a single metric pair, or a target value and one scaling metric and one load metric.
- Mode
-
- Type: string
The predictive scaling mode. Defaults to
ForecastOnly
if not specified. - SchedulingBufferTime
-
- Type: int
The amount of time, in seconds, by which the instance launch time can be advanced. For example, the forecast says to add capacity at 10:00 AM, and you choose to pre-launch instances by 5 minutes. In that case, the instances will be launched at 9:55 AM. The intention is to give resources time to be provisioned. It can take a few minutes to launch an EC2 instance. The actual amount of time required depends on several factors, such as the size of the instance and whether there are startup scripts to complete.
The value must be less than the forecast interval duration of 3600 seconds (60 minutes). Defaults to 300 seconds if not specified.

PredictiveScalingMetricSpecification
Description
This structure specifies the metrics and target utilization settings for a predictive scaling policy.
You must specify either a metric pair, or a load metric and a scaling metric individually. Specifying a metric pair instead of individual metrics provides a simpler way to configure metrics for a scaling policy. You choose the metric pair, and the policy automatically knows the correct sum and average statistics to use for the load metric and the scaling metric.
Example
-
You create a predictive scaling policy and specify
ALBRequestCount
as the value for the metric pair and1000.0
as the target value. For this type of metric, you must provide the metric dimension for the corresponding target group, so you also provide a resource label for the Application Load Balancer target group that is attached to your Auto Scaling group. -
The number of requests the target group receives per minute provides the load metric, and the request count averaged between the members of the target group provides the scaling metric. In CloudWatch, this refers to the
RequestCount
andRequestCountPerTarget
metrics, respectively. -
For optimal use of predictive scaling, you adhere to the best practice of using a dynamic scaling policy to automatically scale between the minimum capacity and maximum capacity in response to real-time changes in resource utilization.
-
Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling consumes data points for the load metric over the last 14 days and creates an hourly load forecast for predictive scaling. (A minimum of 24 hours of data is required.)
-
After creating the load forecast, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling determines when to reduce or increase the capacity of your Auto Scaling group in each hour of the forecast period so that the average number of requests received by each instance is as close to 1000 requests per minute as possible at all times.

StepAdjustment
Description
Describes information used to create a step adjustment for a step scaling policy.
For the following examples, suppose that you have an alarm with a breach threshold of 50:
-
To trigger the adjustment when the metric is greater than or equal to 50 and less than 60, specify a lower bound of 0 and an upper bound of 10.
-
To trigger the adjustment when the metric is greater than 40 and less than or equal to 50, specify a lower bound of -10 and an upper bound of 0.
There are a few rules for the step adjustments for your step policy:
-
The ranges of your step adjustments can't overlap or have a gap.
-
At most, one step adjustment can have a null lower bound. If one step adjustment has a negative lower bound, then there must be a step adjustment with a null lower bound.
-
At most, one step adjustment can have a null upper bound. If one step adjustment has a positive upper bound, then there must be a step adjustment with a null upper bound.
-
The upper and lower bound can't be null in the same step adjustment.
For more information, see Step adjustments in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

If the metric value is above the breach threshold, the lower bound is inclusive (the metric must be greater than or equal to the threshold plus the lower bound). Otherwise, it is exclusive (the metric must be greater than the threshold plus the lower bound). A null value indicates negative infinity.
- MetricIntervalUpperBound
-
- Type: double
The upper bound for the difference between the alarm threshold and the CloudWatch metric. If the metric value is above the breach threshold, the upper bound is exclusive (the metric must be less than the threshold plus the upper bound). Otherwise, it is inclusive (the metric must be less than or equal to the threshold plus the upper bound). A null value indicates positive infinity.
The upper bound must be greater than the lower bound.

TrafficSourceIdentifier
Description
Identifying information for a traffic source.
Members
- Identifier
-
- Required: Yes
- Type: string
Identifies the traffic source.
For Application Load Balancers, Gateway Load Balancers, Network Load Balancers, and VPC Lattice, this will be the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for a target group in this account and Region. For Classic Load Balancers, this will be the name of the Classic Load Balancer in this account and Region.
For example:
-
Application Load Balancer ARN:
arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-west-2:123456789012:targetgroup/my-targets/1234567890123456
-
Classic Load Balancer name:
my-classic-load-balancer
-
VPC Lattice ARN:
arn:aws:vpc-lattice:us-west-2:123456789012:targetgroup/tg-1234567890123456
To get the ARN of a target group for a Application Load Balancer, Gateway Load Balancer, or Network Load Balancer, or the name of a Classic Load Balancer, use the Elastic Load Balancing DescribeTargetGroups and DescribeLoadBalancers API operations.
To get the ARN of a target group for VPC Lattice, use the VPC Lattice GetTargetGroup API operation.

The unique identifier of the traffic source.
- State
-
- Type: string
Describes the current state of a traffic source.
The state values are as follows:
-
Adding
- The Auto Scaling instances are being registered with the load balancer or target group. -
Added
- All Auto Scaling instances are registered with the load balancer or target group. -
InService
- For an Elastic Load Balancing load balancer or target group, at least one Auto Scaling instance passed anELB
health check. For VPC Lattice, at least one Auto Scaling instance passed anVPC_LATTICE
health check. -
Removing
- The Auto Scaling instances are being deregistered from the load balancer or target group. If connection draining (deregistration delay) is enabled, Elastic Load Balancing or VPC Lattice waits for in-flight requests to complete before deregistering the instances. -
Removed
- All Auto Scaling instances are deregistered from the load balancer or target group.
