/AWS1/CL_ECS=>UPDATECONTAINERAGENT()¶
About UpdateContainerAgent¶
Updates the Amazon ECS container agent on a specified container instance. Updating the Amazon ECS container agent doesn't interrupt running tasks or services on the container instance. The process for updating the agent differs depending on whether your container instance was launched with the Amazon ECS-optimized AMI or another operating system.
The UpdateContainerAgent API isn't supported for container instances
using the Amazon ECS-optimized Amazon Linux 2 (arm64) AMI. To update the container agent,
you can update the ecs-init package. This updates the agent. For more
information, see Updating the
Amazon ECS container agent in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
Agent updates with the UpdateContainerAgent API operation do not
apply to Windows container instances. We recommend that you launch new container
instances to update the agent version in your Windows clusters.
The UpdateContainerAgent API requires an Amazon ECS-optimized AMI or Amazon
Linux AMI with the ecs-init service installed and running. For help
updating the Amazon ECS container agent on other operating systems, see Manually updating the Amazon ECS container agent in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
