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.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->attachInstances([
    'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'InstanceIds' => ['<string>', ...],
]);

Errors

ResourceContentionFault:

You already have a pending update to an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling resource (for example, an Auto Scaling group, instance, or load balancer).

ServiceLinkedRoleFailure:

The service-linked role is not yet ready for use.

Examples

Example 1: To attach an instance to an Auto Scaling group

This example attaches the specified instance to the specified Auto Scaling group.

$result = $client->attachInstances([
    'AutoScalingGroupName' => 'my-auto-scaling-group',
    'InstanceIds' => [
        'i-93633f9b',
    ],

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This API operation is superseded by AttachTrafficSources, which can attach multiple traffic sources types.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.

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.

AttachLoadBalancers

$result = $client->attachLoadBalancers([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->attachLoadBalancersAsync([/* ... */]);

This API operation is superseded by https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/ec2/APIReference/API_AttachTrafficSources.html, which can attach multiple traffic sources types. We recommend using AttachTrafficSources to simplify how you manage traffic sources. However, we continue to support AttachLoadBalancers. You can use both the original AttachLoadBalancers API operation and AttachTrafficSources on the same Auto Scaling group.

Attaches one or more Classic Load Balancers to the specified Auto Scaling group. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling registers the running instances with these Classic Load Balancers.

To describe the load balancers for an Auto Scaling group, call the DescribeLoadBalancers API. To detach a load balancer from the Auto Scaling group, call the DetachLoadBalancers API.

This operation is additive and does not detach existing Classic Load Balancers or target groups from the Auto Scaling group.

You can use any of the following as traffic sources for an Auto Scaling group:

• Application Load Balancer

• Classic Load Balancer

• Gateway Load Balancer

• Network Load Balancer

• VPC Lattice

This operation is additive and does not detach existing traffic sources from the Auto Scaling group.

After the operation completes, use the DescribeTrafficSources API to return details about the state of the attachments between traffic sources and your Auto Scaling group. To detach a traffic source from the Auto Scaling group, call the DetachTrafficSources API.

CancelInstanceRefresh

$result = $client->cancelInstanceRefresh([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->cancelInstanceRefreshAsync([/* ... */]);

Cancels an instance refresh or rollback that is in progress. If an instance refresh or rollback is not in progress, an ActiveInstanceRefreshNotFound error occurs.

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.

When you cancel an instance refresh, this does not roll back any changes that it made. Use the RollbackInstanceRefresh API to roll back instead.

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:

1. (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.

2. (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.

3. (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.

4. Create the lifecycle hook. Specify whether the hook is used when the instances launch or terminate.

5. If you need more time, record the lifecycle action heartbeat to keep the instance in a wait state.

6. 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>',

CreateAutoScalingGroup

$result = $client->createAutoScalingGroup([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createAutoScalingGroupAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

]);

DeleteAutoScalingGroup

$result = $client->deleteAutoScalingGroup([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteAutoScalingGroupAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes the specified Auto Scaling group.

If the group has instances or scaling activities in progress, you must specify the option to force the deletion in order for it to succeed. The force delete operation will also terminate the EC2 instances. If the group has a warm pool, the force delete option also deletes the warm pool.

To remove instances from the Auto Scaling group before deleting it, call the DetachInstances API with the list of instances and the option to decrement the desired capacity. This ensures that Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling does not launch replacement instances.

To terminate all instances before deleting the Auto Scaling group, call the UpdateAutoScalingGroup API and set the minimum size and desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group to zero.

If the group has scaling policies, deleting the group deletes the policies, the underlying alarm actions, and any alarm that no longer has an associated action.

For more information, see Delete your Auto Scaling infrastructure in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

DescribeInstanceRefreshes

$result = $client->describeInstanceRefreshes([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->describeInstanceRefreshesAsync([/* ... */]);

Gets information about the instance refreshes for the specified Auto Scaling group from the previous six weeks.

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.

To help you determine the status of an instance refresh, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling returns information about the instance refreshes you previously initiated, including their status, start time, end time, the percentage of the instance refresh that is complete, and the number of instances remaining to update before the instance refresh is complete. If a rollback is initiated while an instance refresh is in progress, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling also returns information about the rollback of the instance refresh.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->describeInstanceRefreshes([
    'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups

$result = $client->describeLoadBalancerTargetGroups([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->describeLoadBalancerTargetGroupsAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

DescribeLoadBalancers

$result = $client->describeLoadBalancers([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->describeLoadBalancersAsync([/* ... */]);

This API operation is superseded by DescribeTrafficSources, which can describe multiple traffic sources types. We recommend using DescribeTrafficSources to simplify how you manage traffic sources. However, we continue to support DescribeLoadBalancers. You can use both the original DescribeLoadBalancers API operation and DescribeTrafficSources on the same Auto Scaling group.

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 element in the response. When you attach a load balancer 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 load balancer. 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 load balancer 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 load balancer doesn't enter the InService state.

Load balancers also have an InService state if you attach them in the CreateAutoScalingGroup API call. If your load balancer state is InService, but it is not working properly, check the scaling activities by calling DescribeScalingActivities and take any corrective actions necessary.

DescribeScalingActivities

$result = $client->describeScalingActivities([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->describeScalingActivitiesAsync([/* ... */]);

Gets information about the scaling activities in the account and Region.

When scaling events occur, you see a record of the scaling activity in the scaling activities. For more information, see Verify a scaling activity for an Auto Scaling group in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

If the scaling event succeeds, the value of the StatusCode element in the response is Successful. If an attempt to launch instances failed, the StatusCode value is Failed or Cancelled and the StatusMessage element in the response indicates the cause of the failure. For help interpreting the StatusMessage, see Troubleshooting Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

DetachInstances

$result = $client->detachInstances([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->detachInstancesAsync([/* ... */]);

Removes one or more instances from the specified Auto Scaling group.

After the instances are detached, you can manage them independent of the Auto Scaling group.

If you do not specify the option to decrement the desired capacity, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches instances to replace the ones that are detached.

DetachLoadBalancerTargetGroups

$result = $client->detachLoadBalancerTargetGroups([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->detachLoadBalancerTargetGroupsAsync([/* ... */]);

This API operation is superseded by DetachTrafficSources, which can detach multiple traffic sources types. We recommend using DetachTrafficSources to simplify how you manage traffic sources. However, we continue to support DetachLoadBalancerTargetGroups. You can use both the original DetachLoadBalancerTargetGroups API operation and DetachTrafficSources on the same Auto Scaling group.

Detaches one or more target groups from the specified Auto Scaling group.

When you detach a target group, it enters the Removing state while deregistering the instances in the group. When all instances are deregistered, then you can no longer describe the target group using the DescribeLoadBalancerTargetGroups API call. The instances remain running.

GetPredictiveScalingForecast

$result = $client->getPredictiveScalingForecast([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getPredictiveScalingForecastAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves the forecast data for a predictive scaling policy.

Load forecasts are predictions of the hourly load values using historical load data from CloudWatch and an analysis of historical trends. Capacity forecasts are represented as predicted values for the minimum capacity that is needed on an hourly basis, based on the hourly load forecast.

A minimum of 24 hours of data is required to create the initial forecasts. However, having a full 14 days of historical data results in more accurate forecasts.

ResourceContentionFault:

You already have a pending update to an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling resource (for example, an Auto Scaling group, instance, or load balancer).

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:

1. (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.

2. (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.

3. (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.

4. Create the lifecycle hook. Specify whether the hook is used when the instances launch or terminate.

5. If you need more time, record the lifecycle action heartbeat to keep the instance in a wait state using the RecordLifecycleActionHeartbeat API call.

6. 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.

]);

PutNotificationConfiguration

$result = $client->putNotificationConfiguration([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putNotificationConfigurationAsync([/* ... */]);

Configures an Auto Scaling group to send notifications when specified events take place. Subscribers to the specified topic can have messages delivered to an endpoint such as a web server or an email address.

This configuration overwrites any existing configuration.

For more information, see Amazon SNS notification options for Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

If you exceed your maximum limit of SNS topics, which is 10 per Auto Scaling group, the call fails.

PutScalingPolicy

$result = $client->putScalingPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putScalingPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates or updates a scaling policy for an Auto Scaling group. Scaling policies are used to scale an Auto Scaling group based on configurable metrics. If no policies are defined, the dynamic scaling and predictive scaling features are not used.

For more information about using dynamic scaling, see Target tracking scaling policies and Step and simple scaling policies in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

For more information about using predictive scaling, see Predictive scaling for Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

You can view the scaling policies for an Auto Scaling group using the DescribePolicies API call. If you are no longer using a scaling policy, you can delete it by calling the DeletePolicy API.

PutScheduledUpdateGroupAction

$result = $client->putScheduledUpdateGroupAction([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putScheduledUpdateGroupActionAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates or updates a scheduled scaling action for an Auto Scaling group.

For more information, see Scheduled scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

You can view the scheduled actions for an Auto Scaling group using the DescribeScheduledActions API call. If you are no longer using a scheduled action, you can delete it by calling the DeleteScheduledAction API.

If you try to schedule your action in the past, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling returns an error message.

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

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:

1. (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.

2. (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.

3. (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.

4. Create the lifecycle hook. Specify whether the hook is used when the instances launch or terminate.

5. If you need more time, record the lifecycle action heartbeat to keep the instance in a wait state.

6. 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.

$result = $client->recordLifecycleActionHeartbeat([
    'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

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.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->rollbackInstanceRefresh([
    'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

ActiveInstanceRefreshNotFoundFault:

The request failed because an active instance refresh or rollback for the specified Auto Scaling group was not found.

IrreversibleInstanceRefreshFault:

The request failed because a desired configuration was not found or an incompatible launch template (uses a Systems Manager parameter instead of an AMI ID) or launch template version ($Latest or $Default) is present on the Auto Scaling group.

SetDesiredCapacity

$result = $client->setDesiredCapacity([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->setDesiredCapacityAsync([/* ... */]);

Sets the size of the specified Auto Scaling group.

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.

For more information, see Manual scaling in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->setDesiredCapacity([
    'AutoScalingGroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

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.

$result = $client->terminateInstanceInAutoScalingGroup([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->terminateInstanceInAutoScalingGroupAsync([/* ... */]);

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.

Errors

ScalingActivityInProgressFault:

The operation can't be performed because there are scaling activities in progress.

ResourceContentionFault:

You already have a pending update to an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling resource (for example, an Auto Scaling group, instance, or load balancer).

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 for DesiredCapacity, and the new MinSize is larger than the current size of the group, this sets the group's DesiredCapacity to the new MinSize value.

• If you specify a new value for MaxSize without specifying a value for DesiredCapacity, and the new MaxSize is smaller than the current size of the group, this sets the group's DesiredCapacity to the new MaxSize value.

To see which properties have been set, call the DescribeAutoScalingGroups API. To view the scaling policies for an Auto Scaling group, call the DescribePolicies API. If the group has scaling policies, you can update them by calling the PutScalingPolicy API.
