The managed scaling settings for the Auto Scaling group capacity provider.
When managed scaling is turned on, Amazon ECS manages the scale-in and scale-out actions of
the Auto Scaling group. Amazon ECS manages a target tracking scaling policy using an Amazon ECS
managed CloudWatch metric with the specified targetCapacity value as the target
value for the metric. For more information, see Using managed scaling in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
If managed scaling is off, the user must manage the scaling of the Auto Scaling group.
Contents
- instanceWarmupPeriod
-
The period of time, in seconds, after a newly launched Amazon EC2 instance can contribute to CloudWatch metrics for Auto Scaling group. If this parameter is omitted, the default value of
300seconds is used.Type: Integer
Valid Range: Minimum value of 0. Maximum value of 10000.
Required: No
- maximumScalingStepSize
-
The maximum number of Amazon EC2 instances that Amazon ECS will scale out at one time. If this parameter is omitted, the default value of
10000is used.Type: Integer
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 10000.
Required: No
- minimumScalingStepSize
-
The minimum number of Amazon EC2 instances that Amazon ECS will scale out at one time. The scale in process is not affected by this parameter If this parameter is omitted, the default value of
1is used.When additional capacity is required, Amazon ECS will scale up the minimum scaling step size even if the actual demand is less than the minimum scaling step size.
If you use a capacity provider with an Auto Scaling group configured with more than one Amazon EC2 instance type or Availability Zone, Amazon ECS will scale up by the exact minimum scaling step size value and will ignore both the maximum scaling step size as well as the capacity demand.
Type: Integer
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 10000.
Required: No
- status
-
Determines whether to use managed scaling for the capacity provider.
Type: String
Valid Values:
ENABLED | DISABLEDRequired: No
- targetCapacity
-
The target capacity utilization as a percentage for the capacity provider. The specified value must be greater than
0and less than or equal to100. For example, if you want the capacity provider to maintain 10% spare capacity, then that means the utilization is 90%, so use atargetCapacityof90. The default value of100percent results in the Amazon EC2 instances in your Auto Scaling group being completely used.Type: Integer
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 100.
Required: No
