API Reference

AWS services or capabilities described in AWS Documentation may vary by region/location. Click Getting Started with Amazon AWS to see specific differences applicable to the China (Beijing) Region.

Container for the parameters to the UpdateTaskProtection operation. Updates the protection status of a task. You can set protectionEnabled to true to protect your task from termination during scale-in events from Service Autoscaling or deployments.

Task-protection, by default, expires after 2 hours at which point Amazon ECS clears the protectionEnabled property making the task eligible for termination by a subsequent scale-in event.

You can specify a custom expiration period for task protection from 1 minute to up to 2,880 minutes (48 hours). To specify the custom expiration period, set the expiresInMinutes property. The expiresInMinutes property is always reset when you invoke this operation for a task that already has protectionEnabled set to true. You can keep extending the protection expiration period of a task by invoking this operation repeatedly.

To learn more about Amazon ECS task protection, see Task scale-in protection in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

This operation is only supported for tasks belonging to an Amazon ECS service. Invoking this operation for a standalone task will result in an TASK_NOT_VALID failure. For more information, see API failure reasons.

If you prefer to set task protection from within the container, we recommend using the Task scale-in protection endpoint.

The UpdateTaskProtectionRequest type exposes the following members

Constructors

Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property Cluster System.String

Gets and sets the property Cluster.

The short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the cluster that hosts the service that the task sets exist in.

Public Property ExpiresInMinutes System.Int32

Gets and sets the property ExpiresInMinutes.

If you set protectionEnabled to true, you can specify the duration for task protection in minutes. You can specify a value from 1 minute to up to 2,880 minutes (48 hours). During this time, your task will not be terminated by scale-in events from Service Auto Scaling or deployments. After this time period lapses, protectionEnabled will be reset to false.

If you don’t specify the time, then the task is automatically protected for 120 minutes (2 hours).

Public Property ProtectionEnabled System.Boolean

Gets and sets the property ProtectionEnabled.

Specify true to mark a task for protection and false to unset protection, making it eligible for termination.

Public Property Tasks System.Collections.Generic.List<System.String>

Gets and sets the property Tasks.

A list of up to 10 task IDs or full ARN entries.

Examples

This example enables scale-in protection for a task for 60 minutes.

To set task scale-in protection for a task for 60 minutes


var client = new AmazonECSClient();
var response = client.UpdateTaskProtection(new UpdateTaskProtectionRequest 
{
    Cluster = "test-task-protection",
    ExpiresInMinutes = 60,
    ProtectionEnabled = true,
    Tasks = new List<string> {
        "b8b1cf532d0e46ba8d44a40d1de16772"
    }
});

List<Failure> failures = response.Failures;
List<ProtectedTask> protectedTasks = response.ProtectedTasks;

            

This example enables task scale-in protection for a task, without specifying the expiresInMinutes parameter, for the default protection period of 120 minutes.

To set task scale-in protection for the default time period in minutes


var client = new AmazonECSClient();
var response = client.UpdateTaskProtection(new UpdateTaskProtectionRequest 
{
    Cluster = "test-task-protection",
    ProtectionEnabled = true,
    Tasks = new List<string> {
        "b8b1cf532d0e46ba8d44a40d1de16772"
    }
});

List<Failure> failures = response.Failures;
List<ProtectedTask> protectedTasks = response.ProtectedTasks;

            

This example removes scale-in protection for a task.

To remove task scale-in protection


var client = new AmazonECSClient();
var response = client.UpdateTaskProtection(new UpdateTaskProtectionRequest 
{
    Cluster = "test-task-protection",
    ProtectionEnabled = false,
    Tasks = new List<string> {
        "b8b1cf532d0e46ba8d44a40d1de16772"
    }
});

List<Failure> failures = response.Failures;
List<ProtectedTask> protectedTasks = response.ProtectedTasks;
