AWS::EC2::LaunchTemplate InstanceRequirements

The attributes for the instance types. When you specify instance attributes, Amazon EC2 will identify instance types with these attributes.

When you specify multiple parameters, you get instance types that satisfy all of the specified parameters. If you specify multiple values for a parameter, you get instance types that satisfy any of the specified values.

Note

You must specify VCpuCount and MemoryMiB. All other parameters are optional. Any unspecified optional parameter is set to its default.

For more information, see Attribute-based instance type selection for EC2 Fleet, Attribute-based instance type selection for Spot Fleet, and Spot placement score in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Update requires: No interruption

BareMetal

Indicates whether bare metal instance types must be included, excluded, or required.

To include bare metal instance types, specify included.
To require only bare metal instance types, specify required.
To exclude bare metal instance types, specify excluded.

Default: excluded

Required: No

Type: String

Allowed values: excluded | included | required

Update requires: No interruption

BaselineEbsBandwidthMbps

The minimum and maximum baseline bandwidth to Amazon EBS, in Mbps. For more information, see Amazon EBS–optimized instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Default: No minimum or maximum limits

Required: No

Type: BaselineEbsBandwidthMbps

Update requires: No interruption

BurstablePerformance

Indicates whether burstable performance T instance types are included, excluded, or required. For more information, see Burstable performance instances.

To include burstable performance instance types, specify included.
To require only burstable performance instance types, specify required.
To exclude burstable performance instance types, specify excluded.

Default: excluded

Required: No

CpuManufacturers

The CPU manufacturers to include.

For instance types with Intel CPUs, specify intel.
For instance types with AMD CPUs, specify amd.
For instance types with AWS CPUs, specify amazon-web-services.

Note

Don't confuse the CPU manufacturer with the CPU architecture. Instances will be launched with a compatible CPU architecture based on the Amazon Machine Image (AMI) that you specify in your launch template.

Default: Any manufacturer

Required: No

Type: List of String

Update requires: No interruption

ExcludedInstanceTypes

The instance types to exclude. You can use strings with one or more wild cards, represented by an asterisk (*), to exclude an instance type, size, or generation. The following are examples: m5.8xlarge, c5*.*, m5a.*, r*, *3*.

For example, if you specify c5*,Amazon EC2 will exclude the entire C5 instance family, which includes all C5a and C5n instance types. If you specify m5a.*, Amazon EC2 will exclude all the M5a instance types, but not the M5n instance types.

Default: No excluded instance types

OnDemandMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPrice

The price protection threshold for On-Demand Instances. This is the maximum you’ll pay for an On-Demand Instance, expressed as a percentage above the cheapest M, C, or R instance type with your specified attributes. When Amazon EC2 selects instance types with your attributes, it excludes instance types priced above your threshold.

The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 interprets as a percentage.

To turn off price protection, specify a high value, such as 999999.

This parameter is not supported for GetSpotPlacementScores and GetInstanceTypesFromInstanceRequirements.

Note

If you set TargetCapacityUnitType to vcpu or memory-mib, the price protection threshold is applied based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per-instance price.

Default: 20

Required: No

Type: Integer

Update requires: No interruption

RequireHibernateSupport

Indicates whether instance types must support hibernation for On-Demand Instances.

This parameter is not supported for GetSpotPlacementScores.

Default: false

Required: No

Type: Boolean

Update requires: No interruption

SpotMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPrice

The price protection threshold for Spot Instances. This is the maximum you’ll pay for a Spot Instance, expressed as a percentage above the cheapest M, C, or R instance type with your specified attributes. When Amazon EC2 selects instance types with your attributes, it excludes instance types priced above your threshold.

The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 interprets as a percentage.

To turn off price protection, specify a high value, such as 999999.

This parameter is not supported for GetSpotPlacementScores and GetInstanceTypesFromInstanceRequirements.

Note

If you set TargetCapacityUnitType to vcpu or memory-mib, the price protection threshold is applied based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per-instance price.

Default: 100

Required: No

Type: Integer

Update requires: No interruption
