Description

Submits an AWS Batch job from a job definition. Parameters specified during SubmitJob override parameters defined in the job definition.

Parameters

-ArrayProperties_Size <Int32>
The size of the array job.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ContainerOverrides_Command <String[]>
The command to send to the container that overrides the default command from the Docker image or the job definition.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ContainerOverrides_Environment <KeyValuePair[]>
The environment variables to send to the container. You can add new environment variables, which are added to the container at launch, or you can override the existing environment variables from the Docker image or the job definition.Environment variables must not start with AWS_BATCH; this naming convention is reserved for variables that are set by the AWS Batch service.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ContainerOverrides_InstanceType <String>
The instance type to use for a multi-node parallel job. This parameter is not valid for single-node container jobs.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ContainerOverrides_Memory <Int32>
The number of MiB of memory reserved for the job. This value overrides the value set in the job definition.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ContainerOverrides_ResourceRequirement <ResourceRequirement[]>
The type and amount of a resource to assign to a container. This value overrides the value set in the job definition. Currently, the only supported resource is GPU.

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-DependsOn <JobDependency[]>
A list of dependencies for the job. A job can depend upon a maximum of 20 jobs. You can specify a SEQUENTIAL type dependency without specifying a job ID for array jobs so that each child array job completes sequentially, starting at index 0. You can also specify an N_TO_N type dependency with a job ID for array jobs. In that case, each index child of this job must wait for the corresponding index child of each dependency to complete before it can begin.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Force <SwitchParameter>
This parameter overrides confirmation prompts to force the cmdlet to continue its operation. This parameter should always be used with caution.
Required?False

-NodeOverrides_NodePropertyOverride <NodePropertyOverride[]>
The node property overrides for the job.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesNodeOverrides_NodePropertyOverrides
-NodeOverrides_NumNode <Int32>
The number of nodes to use with a multi-node parallel job. This value overrides the number of nodes that are specified in the job definition. To use this override:
  • There must be at least one node range in your job definition that has an open upper boundary (such as : or n:).
  • The lower boundary of the node range specified in the job definition must be fewer than the number of nodes specified in the override.
  • The main node index specified in the job definition must be fewer than the number of nodes specified in the override.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesNodeOverrides_NumNodes
-Parameter <Hashtable>
Additional parameters passed to the job that replace parameter substitution placeholders that are set in the job definition. Parameters are specified as a key and value pair mapping. Parameters in a SubmitJob request override any corresponding parameter defaults from the job definition.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesParameters
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the JobName parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^JobName' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-RetryStrategy_Attempt <Int32>
The number of times to move a job to the RUNNABLE status. You may specify between 1 and 10 attempts. If the value of attempts is greater than one, the job is retried on failure the same number of attempts as the value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesRetryStrategy_Attempts
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is '*'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.Batch.Model.SubmitJobResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.Batch.Model.SubmitJobResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Timeout <JobTimeout>
The timeout configuration for this SubmitJob operation. You can specify a timeout duration after which AWS Batch terminates your jobs if they have not finished. If a job is terminated due to a timeout, it is not retried. The minimum value for the timeout is 60 seconds. This configuration overrides any timeout configuration specified in the job definition. For array jobs, child jobs have the same timeout configuration as the parent job. For more information, see Job Timeouts in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>
The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Aliases AK
-Credential <AWSCredentials>
An AWSCredentials object instance containing access and secret key information, and optionally a token for session-based credentials.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
-ProfileLocation <String>

Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)

If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials. Note that the encrypted credential file is not supported on all platforms. It will be skipped when searching for profiles on Windows Nano Server, Mac, and Linux platforms.

If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.

As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.

Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Aliases AWSProfilesLocation, ProfilesLocation
-ProfileName <String>
The user-defined name of an AWS credentials or SAML-based role profile containing credential information. The profile is expected to be found in the secure credential file shared with the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio. You can also specify the name of a profile stored in the .ini-format credential file used with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Aliases AWSProfileName, StoredCredentials
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
-SecretKey <String>
The AWS secret key for the user account. This can be a temporary secret key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Aliases SecretAccessKey, SK
-SessionToken <String>
The session token if the access and secret keys are temporary session-based credentials.
Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)

Aliases RegionToCall
-EndpointUrl <String>

The endpoint to make the call against.

Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.

Required? False
Position? Named
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
