string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the Auto Scaling group. This name must be unique per Region per account.
string
The name of the launch configuration.
If you do not specify LaunchConfigurationName, you must specify one of the following parameters: InstanceId, LaunchTemplate, or MixedInstancesPolicy.
dict
The launch template to use to launch instances.
For more information, see LaunchTemplateSpecification in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling API Reference.
If you do not specify LaunchTemplate, you must specify one of the following parameters: InstanceId, LaunchConfigurationName, or MixedInstancesPolicy.
LaunchTemplateId (string) --
The ID of the launch template. You must specify either a template ID or a template name.
LaunchTemplateName (string) --
The name of the launch template. You must specify either a template name or a template ID.
Version (string) --
The version number, $Latest, or $Default. If the value is $Latest, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the latest version of the launch template when launching instances. If the value is $Default, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the default version of the launch template when launching instances. The default value is $Default.
dict
An embedded object that specifies a mixed instances policy. The required parameters must be specified. If optional parameters are unspecified, their default values are used.
The policy includes parameters that not only define the distribution of On-Demand Instances and Spot Instances, the maximum price to pay for Spot Instances, and how the Auto Scaling group allocates instance types to fulfill On-Demand and Spot capacity, but also the parameters that specify the instance configuration information—the launch template and instance types.
For more information, see MixedInstancesPolicy in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling API Reference and Auto Scaling Groups with Multiple Instance Types and Purchase Options in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
You must specify one of the following parameters in your request: LaunchConfigurationName, LaunchTemplate, InstanceId, or MixedInstancesPolicy.
LaunchTemplate (dict) --
The launch template and instance types (overrides).
This parameter must be specified when creating a mixed instances policy.
LaunchTemplateSpecification (dict) --
The launch template to use. You must specify either the launch template ID or launch template name in the request.
LaunchTemplateId (string) --
The ID of the launch template. You must specify either a template ID or a template name.
LaunchTemplateName (string) --
The name of the launch template. You must specify either a template name or a template ID.
Version (string) --
The version number, $Latest, or $Default. If the value is $Latest, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the latest version of the launch template when launching instances. If the value is $Default, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the default version of the launch template when launching instances. The default value is $Default.
Overrides (list) --
An optional setting. Any parameters that you specify override the same parameters in the launch template. Currently, the only supported override is instance type. You can specify between 1 and 20 instance types.
(dict) --
Describes an override for a launch template.
InstanceType (string) --
The instance type.
For information about available instance types, see Available Instance Types in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.
WeightedCapacity (string) --
The number of capacity units, which gives the instance type a proportional weight to other instance types. For example, larger instance types are generally weighted more than smaller instance types. These are the same units that you chose to set the desired capacity in terms of instances, or a performance attribute such as vCPUs, memory, or I/O.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 999.
InstancesDistribution (dict) --
The instances distribution to use.
If you leave this parameter unspecified, the value for each parameter in InstancesDistribution uses a default value.
OnDemandAllocationStrategy (string) --
Indicates how to allocate instance types to fulfill On-Demand capacity.
The only valid value is prioritized, which is also the default value. This strategy uses the order of instance type overrides for the LaunchTemplate to define the launch priority of each instance type. The first instance type in the array is prioritized higher than the last. If all your On-Demand capacity cannot be fulfilled using your highest priority instance, then the Auto Scaling groups launches the remaining capacity using the second priority instance type, and so on.
OnDemandBaseCapacity (integer) --
The minimum amount of the Auto Scaling group's capacity that must be fulfilled by On-Demand Instances. This base portion is provisioned first as your group scales.
Default if not set is 0. If you leave it set to 0, On-Demand Instances are launched as a percentage of the Auto Scaling group's desired capacity, per the OnDemandPercentageAboveBaseCapacity setting.
OnDemandPercentageAboveBaseCapacity (integer) --
Controls the percentages of On-Demand Instances and Spot Instances for your additional capacity beyond OnDemandBaseCapacity.
Default if not set is 100. If you leave it set to 100, the percentages are 100% for On-Demand Instances and 0% for Spot Instances.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 0. Maximum value of 100.
SpotAllocationStrategy (string) --
Indicates how to allocate instances across Spot Instance pools.
If the allocation strategy is lowest-price, the Auto Scaling group launches instances using the Spot pools with the lowest price, and evenly allocates your instances across the number of Spot pools that you specify. If the allocation strategy is capacity-optimized, the Auto Scaling group launches instances using Spot pools that are optimally chosen based on the available Spot capacity.
The default Spot allocation strategy for calls that you make through the API, the AWS CLI, or the AWS SDKs is lowest-price. The default Spot allocation strategy for the AWS Management Console is capacity-optimized.
Valid values: lowest-price | capacity-optimized
SpotInstancePools (integer) --
The number of Spot Instance pools across which to allocate your Spot Instances. The Spot pools are determined from the different instance types in the Overrides array of LaunchTemplate. Default if not set is 2.
Used only when the Spot allocation strategy is lowest-price.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 20.
SpotMaxPrice (string) --
The maximum price per unit hour that you are willing to pay for a Spot Instance. If you leave the value of this parameter blank (which is the default), the maximum Spot price is set at the On-Demand price.
To remove a value that you previously set, include the parameter but leave the value blank.
string
The ID of the instance used to create a launch configuration for the group.
When you specify an ID of an instance, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling creates a new launch configuration and associates it with the group. This launch configuration derives its attributes from the specified instance, except for the block device mapping.
For more information, see Create an Auto Scaling Group Using an EC2 Instance in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
You must specify one of the following parameters in your request: LaunchConfigurationName, LaunchTemplate, InstanceId, or MixedInstancesPolicy.
integer
[REQUIRED]
The minimum size of the group.
integer
[REQUIRED]
The maximum size of the group.
integer
The number of Amazon EC2 instances that the Auto Scaling group attempts to maintain. This number must be greater than or equal to the minimum size of the group and less than or equal to the maximum size of the group. If you do not specify a desired capacity, the default is the minimum size of the group.
integer
The amount of time, in seconds, after a scaling activity completes before another scaling activity can start. The default value is 300.
For more information, see Scaling Cooldowns in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
list
One or more Availability Zones for the group. This parameter is optional if you specify one or more subnets for VPCZoneIdentifier.
Conditional: If your account supports EC2-Classic and VPC, this parameter is required to launch instances into EC2-Classic.
(string) --
list
A list of Classic Load Balancers associated with this Auto Scaling group. For Application Load Balancers and Network Load Balancers, specify a list of target groups using the TargetGroupARNs property instead.
For more information, see Using a Load Balancer with an Auto Scaling Group in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
(string) --
list
The Amazon Resource Names (ARN) of the target groups to associate with the Auto Scaling group. Instances are registered as targets in a target group, and traffic is routed to the target group.
For more information, see Using a Load Balancer with an Auto Scaling Group in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
(string) --
string
The service to use for the health checks. The valid values are EC2 and ELB. The default value is EC2. If you configure an Auto Scaling group to use ELB health checks, it considers the instance unhealthy if it fails either the EC2 status checks or the load balancer health checks.
For more information, see Health Checks for Auto Scaling Instances in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
integer
The amount of time, in seconds, that Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling waits before checking the health status of an EC2 instance that has come into service. During this time, any health check failures for the instance are ignored. The default value is 0.
For more information, see Health Check Grace Period in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
Conditional: This parameter is required if you are adding an ELB health check.
string
The name of the placement group into which to launch your instances, if any. A placement group is a logical grouping of instances within a single Availability Zone. You cannot specify multiple Availability Zones and a placement group. For more information, see Placement Groups in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.
string
A comma-separated list of subnet IDs for your virtual private cloud (VPC).
If you specify VPCZoneIdentifier with AvailabilityZones, the subnets that you specify for this parameter must reside in those Availability Zones.
Conditional: If your account supports EC2-Classic and VPC, this parameter is required to launch instances into a VPC.
list
One or more termination policies used to select the instance to terminate. These policies are executed in the order that they are listed.
For more information, see Controlling Which Instances Auto Scaling Terminates During Scale In in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
(string) --
boolean
Indicates whether newly launched instances are protected from termination by Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling when scaling in.
For more information about preventing instances from terminating on scale in, see Instance Protection in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
list
One or more lifecycle hooks.
(dict) --
Describes a lifecycle hook. Used in combination with CreateAutoScalingGroup.
A lifecycle hook tells Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to perform an action on an instance when the instance launches (before it is put into service) or as the instance terminates (before it is fully terminated).
This step is a part of the procedure for creating a lifecycle hook for an Auto Scaling group:
(Optional) Create a Lambda function and a rule that allows CloudWatch Events to invoke your Lambda function when Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches or terminates instances.
(Optional) Create a notification target and an IAM role. The target can be either an Amazon SQS queue or an Amazon SNS topic. The role allows Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling to publish lifecycle notifications to the target.
Create the lifecycle hook. Specify whether the hook is used when the instances launch or terminate.
If you need more time, record the lifecycle action heartbeat to keep the instance in a pending state using RecordLifecycleActionHeartbeat.
If you finish before the timeout period ends, complete the lifecycle action using CompleteLifecycleAction.
For more information, see Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling Lifecycle Hooks in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
You can view the lifecycle hooks for an Auto Scaling group using DescribeLifecycleHooks. You can modify an existing lifecycle hook or create new lifecycle hooks using PutLifecycleHook. If you are no longer using a lifecycle hook, you can delete it using DeleteLifecycleHook.
LifecycleHookName (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The name of the lifecycle hook.
LifecycleTransition (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The state of the EC2 instance to which you want to attach the lifecycle hook. The valid values are:
autoscaling:EC2_INSTANCE_LAUNCHING
autoscaling:EC2_INSTANCE_TERMINATING
NotificationMetadata (string) --
Additional information that you want to include any time Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling sends a message to the notification target.
HeartbeatTimeout (integer) --
The maximum time, in seconds, that can elapse before the lifecycle hook times out.
If the lifecycle hook times out, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling performs the action that you specified in the DefaultResult parameter. You can prevent the lifecycle hook from timing out by calling RecordLifecycleActionHeartbeat.
DefaultResult (string) --
Defines the action the Auto Scaling group should take when the lifecycle hook timeout elapses or if an unexpected failure occurs. The valid values are CONTINUE and ABANDON. The default value is ABANDON.
NotificationTargetARN (string) --
The ARN of the target that Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling sends notifications to when an instance is in the transition state for the lifecycle hook. The notification target can be either an SQS queue or an SNS topic.
RoleARN (string) --
The ARN of the IAM role that allows the Auto Scaling group to publish to the specified notification target, for example, an Amazon SNS topic or an Amazon SQS queue.
list
One or more tags.
For more information, see Tagging Auto Scaling Groups and Instances in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
(dict) --
Describes a tag for an Auto Scaling group.
ResourceId (string) --
The name of the group.
ResourceType (string) --
The type of resource. The only supported value is auto-scaling-group.
Key (string) -- [REQUIRED]

PropagateAtLaunch (boolean) --
Determines whether the tag is added to new instances as they are launched in the group.
string
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service-linked role that the Auto Scaling group uses to call other AWS services on your behalf. By default, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses a service-linked role named AWSServiceRoleForAutoScaling, which it creates if it does not exist. For more information, see Service-Linked Roles in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
integer
The maximum amount of time, in seconds, that an instance can be in service.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 604800.

The ID of the instance.
InstanceType (string) --
The instance type of the EC2 instance.
AutoScalingGroupName (string) --
The name of the Auto Scaling group for the instance.
AvailabilityZone (string) --
The Availability Zone for the instance.
LifecycleState (string) --
The lifecycle state for the instance.
HealthStatus (string) --
The last reported health status of this instance. "Healthy" means that the instance is healthy and should remain in service. "Unhealthy" means that the instance is unhealthy and Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling should terminate and replace it.
LaunchConfigurationName (string) --
The launch configuration used to launch the instance. This value is not available if you attached the instance to the Auto Scaling group.
LaunchTemplate (dict) --
The launch template for the instance.
LaunchTemplateId (string) --
The ID of the launch template. You must specify either a template ID or a template name.
LaunchTemplateName (string) --
The name of the launch template. You must specify either a template name or a template ID.
Version (string) --
The version number, $Latest, or $Default. If the value is $Latest, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the latest version of the launch template when launching instances. If the value is $Default, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the default version of the launch template when launching instances. The default value is $Default.
ProtectedFromScaleIn (boolean) --
Indicates whether the instance is protected from termination by Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling when scaling in.
WeightedCapacity (string) --
The number of capacity units contributed by the instance based on its instance type.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 999.
NextToken (string) --
A string that indicates that the response contains more items than can be returned in a single response. To receive additional items, specify this string for the NextToken value when requesting the next set of items. This value is null when there are no more items to return.

Updates the configuration for the specified Auto Scaling group.
To update an Auto Scaling group, specify the name of the group and the parameter that you want to change. Any parameters that you don't specify are not changed by this update request. The new settings take effect on any scaling activities after this call returns.
If you associate a new launch configuration or template with an Auto Scaling group, all new instances will get the updated configuration. Existing instances continue to run with the configuration that they were originally launched with. When you update a group to specify a mixed instances policy instead of a launch configuration or template, existing instances may be replaced to match the new purchasing options that you specified in the policy. For example, if the group currently has 100% On-Demand capacity and the policy specifies 50% Spot capacity, this means that half of your instances will be gradually terminated and relaunched as Spot Instances. When replacing instances, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches new instances before terminating the old ones, so that updating your group does not compromise the performance or availability of your application.
Note the following about changing DesiredCapacity, MaxSize, or MinSize:
If a scale-in event occurs as a result of a new DesiredCapacity value that is lower than the current size of the group, the Auto Scaling group uses its termination policy to determine which instances to terminate.
If you specify a new value for MinSize without specifying a value for DesiredCapacity, and the new MinSize is larger than the current size of the group, this sets the group's DesiredCapacity to the new MinSize value.
If you specify a new value for MaxSize without specifying a value for DesiredCapacity, and the new MaxSize is smaller than the current size of the group, this sets the group's DesiredCapacity to the new MaxSize value.
To see which parameters have been set, use DescribeAutoScalingGroups. You can also view the scaling policies for an Auto Scaling group using DescribePolicies. If the group has scaling policies, you can update them using PutScalingPolicy.

string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the Auto Scaling group.
string
The name of the launch configuration. If you specify LaunchConfigurationName in your update request, you can't specify LaunchTemplate or MixedInstancesPolicy.
dict
The launch template and version to use to specify the updates. If you specify LaunchTemplate in your update request, you can't specify LaunchConfigurationName or MixedInstancesPolicy.
For more information, see LaunchTemplateSpecification in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling API Reference.
LaunchTemplateId (string) --
The ID of the launch template. You must specify either a template ID or a template name.
LaunchTemplateName (string) --
The name of the launch template. You must specify either a template name or a template ID.
Version (string) --
The version number, $Latest, or $Default. If the value is $Latest, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the latest version of the launch template when launching instances. If the value is $Default, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the default version of the launch template when launching instances. The default value is $Default.
dict
An embedded object that specifies a mixed instances policy.
In your call to UpdateAutoScalingGroup, you can make changes to the policy that is specified. All optional parameters are left unchanged if not specified.
For more information, see MixedInstancesPolicy in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling API Reference and Auto Scaling Groups with Multiple Instance Types and Purchase Options in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
LaunchTemplate (dict) --
The launch template and instance types (overrides).
This parameter must be specified when creating a mixed instances policy.
LaunchTemplateSpecification (dict) --
The launch template to use. You must specify either the launch template ID or launch template name in the request.
LaunchTemplateId (string) --
The ID of the launch template. You must specify either a template ID or a template name.
LaunchTemplateName (string) --
The name of the launch template. You must specify either a template name or a template ID.
Version (string) --
The version number, $Latest, or $Default. If the value is $Latest, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the latest version of the launch template when launching instances. If the value is $Default, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects the default version of the launch template when launching instances. The default value is $Default.
Overrides (list) --
An optional setting. Any parameters that you specify override the same parameters in the launch template. Currently, the only supported override is instance type. You can specify between 1 and 20 instance types.
(dict) --
Describes an override for a launch template.
InstanceType (string) --
The instance type.
For information about available instance types, see Available Instance Types in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.
WeightedCapacity (string) --
The number of capacity units, which gives the instance type a proportional weight to other instance types. For example, larger instance types are generally weighted more than smaller instance types. These are the same units that you chose to set the desired capacity in terms of instances, or a performance attribute such as vCPUs, memory, or I/O.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 999.
InstancesDistribution (dict) --
The instances distribution to use.
If you leave this parameter unspecified, the value for each parameter in InstancesDistribution uses a default value.
OnDemandAllocationStrategy (string) --
Indicates how to allocate instance types to fulfill On-Demand capacity.
The only valid value is prioritized, which is also the default value. This strategy uses the order of instance type overrides for the LaunchTemplate to define the launch priority of each instance type. The first instance type in the array is prioritized higher than the last. If all your On-Demand capacity cannot be fulfilled using your highest priority instance, then the Auto Scaling groups launches the remaining capacity using the second priority instance type, and so on.
OnDemandBaseCapacity (integer) --
The minimum amount of the Auto Scaling group's capacity that must be fulfilled by On-Demand Instances. This base portion is provisioned first as your group scales.
Default if not set is 0. If you leave it set to 0, On-Demand Instances are launched as a percentage of the Auto Scaling group's desired capacity, per the OnDemandPercentageAboveBaseCapacity setting.
OnDemandPercentageAboveBaseCapacity (integer) --
Controls the percentages of On-Demand Instances and Spot Instances for your additional capacity beyond OnDemandBaseCapacity.
Default if not set is 100. If you leave it set to 100, the percentages are 100% for On-Demand Instances and 0% for Spot Instances.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 0. Maximum value of 100.
SpotAllocationStrategy (string) --
Indicates how to allocate instances across Spot Instance pools.
If the allocation strategy is lowest-price, the Auto Scaling group launches instances using the Spot pools with the lowest price, and evenly allocates your instances across the number of Spot pools that you specify. If the allocation strategy is capacity-optimized, the Auto Scaling group launches instances using Spot pools that are optimally chosen based on the available Spot capacity.
The default Spot allocation strategy for calls that you make through the API, the AWS CLI, or the AWS SDKs is lowest-price. The default Spot allocation strategy for the AWS Management Console is capacity-optimized.
Valid values: lowest-price | capacity-optimized
SpotInstancePools (integer) --
The number of Spot Instance pools across which to allocate your Spot Instances. The Spot pools are determined from the different instance types in the Overrides array of LaunchTemplate. Default if not set is 2.
Used only when the Spot allocation strategy is lowest-price.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 20.
SpotMaxPrice (string) --
The maximum price per unit hour that you are willing to pay for a Spot Instance. If you leave the value of this parameter blank (which is the default), the maximum Spot price is set at the On-Demand price.
To remove a value that you previously set, include the parameter but leave the value blank.
integer
The minimum size of the Auto Scaling group.
integer
The maximum size of the Auto Scaling group.
integer
The number of EC2 instances that should be running in the Auto Scaling group. This number must be greater than or equal to the minimum size of the group and less than or equal to the maximum size of the group.
integer
The amount of time, in seconds, after a scaling activity completes before another scaling activity can start. The default value is 300. This cooldown period is not used when a scaling-specific cooldown is specified.
Cooldown periods are not supported for target tracking scaling policies, step scaling policies, or scheduled scaling. For more information, see Scaling Cooldowns in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
list
One or more Availability Zones for the group.
(string) --
string
The service to use for the health checks. The valid values are EC2 and ELB. If you configure an Auto Scaling group to use ELB health checks, it considers the instance unhealthy if it fails either the EC2 status checks or the load balancer health checks.
integer
The amount of time, in seconds, that Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling waits before checking the health status of an EC2 instance that has come into service. The default value is 0.
For more information, see Health Check Grace Period in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
Conditional: This parameter is required if you are adding an ELB health check.
string
The name of the placement group into which to launch your instances, if any. A placement group is a logical grouping of instances within a single Availability Zone. You cannot specify multiple Availability Zones and a placement group. For more information, see Placement Groups in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.
string
A comma-separated list of subnet IDs for virtual private cloud (VPC).
If you specify VPCZoneIdentifier with AvailabilityZones, the subnets that you specify for this parameter must reside in those Availability Zones.
list
A standalone termination policy or a list of termination policies used to select the instance to terminate. The policies are executed in the order that they are listed.
For more information, see Controlling Which Instances Auto Scaling Terminates During Scale In in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
(string) --
boolean
Indicates whether newly launched instances are protected from termination by Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling when scaling in.
For more information about preventing instances from terminating on scale in, see Instance Protection in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
string
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service-linked role that the Auto Scaling group uses to call other AWS services on your behalf. For more information, see Service-Linked Roles in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide.
integer
The maximum amount of time, in seconds, that an instance can be in service.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 604800.
None
