Detects whether a stack's actual configuration differs, or has drifted, from its expected configuration, as defined in the stack template and any values specified as template parameters. For each resource in the stack that supports drift detection, CloudFormation compares the actual configuration of the resource with its expected template configuration. Only resource properties explicitly defined in the stack template are checked for drift. A stack is considered to have drifted if one or more of its resources differ from their expected template configurations. For more information, see Detecting Unregulated Configuration Changes to Stacks and Resources.
Use DetectStackDrift to detect drift on all supported resources for a given
stack, or DetectStackResourceDrift to detect drift on individual resources.
For a list of stack resources that currently support drift detection, see Resources that Support Drift Detection.
DetectStackDrift can take up to several minutes, depending on the number of
resources contained within the stack. Use DescribeStackDriftDetectionStatus
to monitor the progress of a detect stack drift operation. Once the drift detection
operation has completed, use DescribeStackResourceDrifts to return drift information
about the stack and its resources.
When detecting drift on a stack, CloudFormation doesn't detect drift on any nested
stacks belonging to that stack. Perform DetectStackDrift directly on the nested
stack itself.
This is an asynchronous operation using the standard naming convention for .NET 4.5 or higher. For .NET 3.5 the operation is implemented as a pair of methods using the standard naming convention of BeginDetectStackDrift and EndDetectStackDrift.
