/AWS1/CL_EC2=>CREATELAUNCHTEMPLATEVERSION()

About CreateLaunchTemplateVersion

Creates a new version of a launch template. You must specify an existing launch template, either by name or ID. You can determine whether the new version inherits parameters from a source version, and add or overwrite parameters as needed.

Launch template versions are numbered in the order in which they are created. You can't specify, change, or replace the numbering of launch template versions.

Launch templates are immutable; after you create a launch template, you can't modify it. Instead, you can create a new version of the launch template that includes the changes that you require.

For more information, see Modify a launch template (manage launch template versions) in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Method Signature

IMPORTING

Required arguments:

IO_LAUNCHTEMPLATEDATA TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_EC2REQLAUNCHTMPLDATA /AWS1/CL_EC2REQLAUNCHTMPLDATA

The information for the launch template.

Optional arguments:

IV_DRYRUN TYPE /AWS1/EC2BOOLEAN /AWS1/EC2BOOLEAN

Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation.

IV_CLIENTTOKEN TYPE /AWS1/EC2STRING /AWS1/EC2STRING

Unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. For more information, see Ensuring idempotency.

Constraint: Maximum 128 ASCII characters.

IV_LAUNCHTEMPLATEID TYPE /AWS1/EC2LAUNCHTEMPLATEID /AWS1/EC2LAUNCHTEMPLATEID

The ID of the launch template.

You must specify either the launch template ID or the launch template name, but not both.

IV_LAUNCHTEMPLATENAME TYPE /AWS1/EC2LAUNCHTEMPLATENAME /AWS1/EC2LAUNCHTEMPLATENAME

The name of the launch template.

You must specify either the launch template ID or the launch template name, but not both.

IV_SOURCEVERSION TYPE /AWS1/EC2STRING /AWS1/EC2STRING

The version of the launch template on which to base the new version. Snapshots applied to the block device mapping are ignored when creating a new version unless they are explicitly included.

If you specify this parameter, the new version inherits the launch parameters from the source version. If you specify additional launch parameters for the new version, they overwrite any corresponding launch parameters inherited from the source version.

If you omit this parameter, the new version contains only the launch parameters that you specify for the new version.

IV_VERSIONDESCRIPTION TYPE /AWS1/EC2VERSIONDESCRIPTION /AWS1/EC2VERSIONDESCRIPTION

A description for the version of the launch template.

IV_RESOLVEALIAS TYPE /AWS1/EC2BOOLEAN /AWS1/EC2BOOLEAN
