Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-PreferredResource <PreferredResource[]>
The preference to control which resource type values are considered when generating rightsizing recommendations. You can specify this preference as a combination of include and exclude lists. You must specify either an includeList or excludeList. If the preference is an empty set of resource type values, an error occurs. You can only set this preference for the Amazon EC2 instance and Auto Scaling group resource types.

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesPreferredResources
-ResourceType <ResourceType>
The target resource type of the recommendation preference to create.The Ec2Instance option encompasses standalone instances and instances that are part of Auto Scaling groups. The AutoScalingGroup option encompasses only instances that are part of an Auto Scaling group.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)

The name of the scope.The following scopes are possible:
  • Organization - Specifies that the recommendation preference applies at the organization level, for all member accounts of an organization.
  • AccountId - Specifies that the recommendation preference applies at the account level, for all resources of a given resource type in an account.
  • ResourceArn - Specifies that the recommendation preference applies at the individual resource level.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Scope_Value <String>
The value of the scope.If you specified the name of the scope as:
  • Organization - The value must be ALL_ACCOUNTS.
  • AccountId - The value must be a 12-digit Amazon Web Services account ID.
  • ResourceArn - The value must be the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an EC2 instance or an Auto Scaling group.
Only EC2 instance and Auto Scaling group ARNs are currently supported.
Required?False

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The cmdlet doesn't have a return value by default. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.ComputeOptimizer.Model.PutRecommendationPreferencesResponse). Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-UtilizationPreference <UtilizationPreference[]>
The preference to control the resource’s CPU utilization threshold, CPU utilization headroom, and memory utilization headroom. When this preference isn't specified, we use the following default values. CPU utilization:
  • P99_5 for threshold
  • PERCENT_20 for headroom
Memory utilization:
  • PERCENT_20 for headroom
  • You can only set CPU and memory utilization preferences for the Amazon EC2 instance resource type.
