Method Signature

IMPORTING

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_NEXTTOKEN TYPE /AWS1/EC2STRING /AWS1/EC2STRING

The token returned from a previous paginated request. Pagination continues from the end of the items returned by the previous request.

IV_MAXRESULTS TYPE /AWS1/EC2DSCINSTTOPOLOGYMAXRSS /AWS1/EC2DSCINSTTOPOLOGYMAXRSS

The maximum number of items to return for this request. To get the next page of items, make another request with the token returned in the output. For more information, see Pagination.

You can't specify this parameter and the instance IDs parameter in the same request.

Default: 20

IT_INSTANCEIDS TYPE /AWS1/CL_EC2DSCINSTTOPOLOGYI00=>TT_DESCRINSTTOPOLOGYINSTIDSET TT_DESCRINSTTOPOLOGYINSTIDSET

The instance IDs.

Default: Describes all your instances.

Constraints: Maximum 100 explicitly specified instance IDs.

IT_GROUPNAMES TYPE /AWS1/CL_EC2DSCINSTTOPOLOGYG00=>TT_DESCRINSTTOPOLOGYGRPNAMESET TT_DESCRINSTTOPOLOGYGRPNAMESET

The name of the placement group that each instance is in.

Constraints: Maximum 100 explicitly specified placement group names.

IT_FILTERS TYPE /AWS1/CL_EC2FILTER=>TT_FILTERLIST TT_FILTERLIST

The filters.

  • availability-zone - The name of the Availability Zone (for example, us-west-2a) or Local Zone (for example, us-west-2-lax-1b) that the instance is in.

  • instance-type - The instance type (for example, p4d.24xlarge) or instance family (for example, p4d). You can use the wildcard to match zero or more characters, or the ? wildcard to match zero or one character.

  • zone-id - The ID of the Availability Zone (for example, usw2-az2) or Local Zone (for example, usw2-lax1-az1) that the instance is in.
