2019/11/19 - AWS CloudFormation - 1 new 6 updated api methods

Changes  This release of AWS CloudFormation StackSets enables users to detect drift on a stack set and the stack instances that belong to that stack set.

DetectStackSetDrift (new) Link ¶

Detect drift on a stack set. When CloudFormation performs drift detection on a stack set, it performs drift detection on the stack associated with each stack instance in the stack set. For more information, see How CloudFormation Performs Drift Detection on a Stack Set.

DetectStackSetDrift returns the OperationId of the stack set drift detection operation. Use this operation id with DescribeStackSetOperation to monitor the progress of the drift detection operation. The drift detection operation may take some time, depending on the number of stack instances included in the stack set, as well as the number of resources included in each stack.

Once the operation has completed, use the following actions to return drift information:

  • Use DescribeStackSet to return detailed informaiton about the stack set, including detailed information about the last completed drift operation performed on the stack set. (Information about drift operations that are in progress is not included.)

  • Use ListStackInstances to return a list of stack instances belonging to the stack set, including the drift status and last drift time checked of each instance.

  • Use DescribeStackInstance to return detailed information about a specific stack instance, including its drift status and last drift time checked.

For more information on performing a drift detection operation on a stack set, see Detecting Unmanaged Changes in Stack Sets.

You can only run a single drift detection operation on a given stack set at one time.

To stop a drift detection stack set operation, use StopStackSetOperation .

type StackSetName

string

param StackSetName

[REQUIRED]

The name of the stack set on which to perform the drift detection operation.

type OperationPreferences

dict

param OperationPreferences

The user-specified preferences for how AWS CloudFormation performs a stack set operation.

For more information on maximum concurrent accounts and failure tolerance, see Stack set operation options.

  • RegionOrder (list) --

    The order of the regions in where you want to perform the stack operation.

    • (string) --

  • FailureToleranceCount (integer) --

    The number of accounts, per region, for which this operation can fail before AWS CloudFormation stops the operation in that region. If the operation is stopped in a region, AWS CloudFormation doesn't attempt the operation in any subsequent regions.

    Conditional: You must specify either FailureToleranceCount or FailureTolerancePercentage (but not both).

  • FailureTolerancePercentage (integer) --

    The percentage of accounts, per region, for which this stack operation can fail before AWS CloudFormation stops the operation in that region. If the operation is stopped in a region, AWS CloudFormation doesn't attempt the operation in any subsequent regions.

    When calculating the number of accounts based on the specified percentage, AWS CloudFormation rounds down to the next whole number.

    Conditional: You must specify either FailureToleranceCount or FailureTolerancePercentage , but not both.

  • MaxConcurrentCount (integer) --

    The maximum number of accounts in which to perform this operation at one time. This is dependent on the value of FailureToleranceCountMaxConcurrentCount is at most one more than the FailureToleranceCount .

    Note that this setting lets you specify the maximum for operations. For large deployments, under certain circumstances the actual number of accounts acted upon concurrently may be lower due to service throttling.

    Conditional: You must specify either MaxConcurrentCount or MaxConcurrentPercentage , but not both.

  • MaxConcurrentPercentage (integer) --

    The maximum percentage of accounts in which to perform this operation at one time.

    When calculating the number of accounts based on the specified percentage, AWS CloudFormation rounds down to the next whole number. This is true except in cases where rounding down would result is zero. In this case, CloudFormation sets the number as one instead.

    Note that this setting lets you specify the maximum for operations. For large deployments, under certain circumstances the actual number of accounts acted upon concurrently may be lower due to service throttling.

    Conditional: You must specify either MaxConcurrentCount or MaxConcurrentPercentage , but not both.

        • DRIFTED : The stack differs from the expected template and parameter configuration of the stack set to which it belongs. A stack instance is considered to have drifted if one or more of the resources in the associated stack have drifted.

        • NOT_CHECKED : AWS CloudFormation has not checked if the stack instance differs from its expected stack set configuration.

        • IN_SYNC : The stack instance's actual configuration matches its expected stack set configuration.

        • UNKNOWN : This value is reserved for future use.

      • LastDriftCheckTimestamp (datetime) --

        Most recent time when CloudFormation performed a drift detection operation on the stack instance. This value will be NULL for any stack instance on which drift detection has not yet been performed.

        The unique ID of a stack set operation.

      • StackSetId (string) --

        The ID of the stack set.

      • Action (string) --

        The type of stack set operation: CREATE , UPDATE , or DELETE . Create and delete operations affect only the specified stack set instances that are associated with the specified stack set. Update operations affect both the stack set itself, as well as all associated stack set instances.

      • Status (string) --

        The status of the operation.

        • FAILED : The operation exceeded the specified failure tolerance. The failure tolerance value that you've set for an operation is applied for each region during stack create and update operations. If the number of failed stacks within a region exceeds the failure tolerance, the status of the operation in the region is set to FAILED . This in turn sets the status of the operation as a whole to FAILED , and AWS CloudFormation cancels the operation in any remaining regions.

        • RUNNING : The operation is currently being performed.

        • STOPPED : The user has cancelled the operation.

        • STOPPING : The operation is in the process of stopping, at user request.

        • SUCCEEDED : The operation completed creating or updating all the specified stacks without exceeding the failure tolerance for the operation.

      • OperationPreferences (dict) --

        The preferences for how AWS CloudFormation performs this stack set operation.

        • RegionOrder (list) --

          The order of the regions in where you want to perform the stack operation.

          • (string) --

        • FailureToleranceCount (integer) --

          The number of accounts, per region, for which this operation can fail before AWS CloudFormation stops the operation in that region. If the operation is stopped in a region, AWS CloudFormation doesn't attempt the operation in any subsequent regions.

          Conditional: You must specify either FailureToleranceCount or FailureTolerancePercentage (but not both).

        • FailureTolerancePercentage (integer) --

          The percentage of accounts, per region, for which this stack operation can fail before AWS CloudFormation stops the operation in that region. If the operation is stopped in a region, AWS CloudFormation doesn't attempt the operation in any subsequent regions.

          When calculating the number of accounts based on the specified percentage, AWS CloudFormation rounds down to the next whole number.

          Conditional: You must specify either FailureToleranceCount or FailureTolerancePercentage , but not both.

        • MaxConcurrentCount (integer) --

          The maximum number of accounts in which to perform this operation at one time. This is dependent on the value of FailureToleranceCountMaxConcurrentCount is at most one more than the FailureToleranceCount .

          Note that this setting lets you specify the maximum for operations. For large deployments, under certain circumstances the actual number of accounts acted upon concurrently may be lower due to service throttling.

          Conditional: You must specify either MaxConcurrentCount or MaxConcurrentPercentage , but not both.

        • MaxConcurrentPercentage (integer) --

          The maximum percentage of accounts in which to perform this operation at one time.

          When calculating the number of accounts based on the specified percentage, AWS CloudFormation rounds down to the next whole number. This is true except in cases where rounding down would result is zero. In this case, CloudFormation sets the number as one instead.

          Note that this setting lets you specify the maximum for operations. For large deployments, under certain circumstances the actual number of accounts acted upon concurrently may be lower due to service throttling.

          Conditional: You must specify either MaxConcurrentCount or MaxConcurrentPercentage , but not both.

      • RetainStacks (boolean) --

        For stack set operations of action type DELETE , specifies whether to remove the stack instances from the specified stack set, but doesn't delete the stacks. You can't reassociate a retained stack, or add an existing, saved stack to a new stack set.

      • AdministrationRoleARN (string) --

        The Amazon Resource Number (ARN) of the IAM role used to perform this stack set operation.

        Use customized administrator roles to control which users or groups can manage specific stack sets within the same administrator account. For more information, see Define Permissions for Multiple Administrators in the AWS CloudFormation User Guide .

      • ExecutionRoleName (string) --

        The name of the IAM execution role used to create or update the stack set.

        Use customized execution roles to control which stack resources users and groups can include in their stack sets.

      • CreationTimestamp (datetime) --

        The time at which the operation was initiated. Note that the creation times for the stack set operation might differ from the creation time of the individual stacks themselves. This is because AWS CloudFormation needs to perform preparatory work for the operation, such as dispatching the work to the requested regions, before actually creating the first stacks.

      • EndTimestamp (datetime) --

        The time at which the stack set operation ended, across all accounts and regions specified. Note that this doesn't necessarily mean that the stack set operation was successful, or even attempted, in each account or region.

      • StackSetDriftDetectionDetails (dict) --

        Detailed information about the drift status of the stack set. This includes information about drift operations currently being performed on the stack set.

        this information will only be present for stack set operations whose Action type is DETECT_DRIFT .

        For more information, see Detecting Unmanaged Changes in Stack Sets in the AWS CloudFormation User Guide.

        • DriftStatus (string) --

          Status of the stack set's actual configuration compared to its expected template and parameter configuration. A stack set is considered to have drifted if one or more of its stack instances have drifted from their expected template and parameter configuration.

          • DRIFTED : One or more of the stack instances belonging to the stack set stack differs from the expected template and parameter configuration. A stack instance is considered to have drifted if one or more of the resources in the associated stack have drifted.

          • NOT_CHECKED : AWS CloudFormation has not checked the stack set for drift.

          • IN_SYNC : All of the stack instances belonging to the stack set stack match from the expected template and parameter configuration.

          The status of the stack set drift detection operation.

          • COMPLETED : The drift detection operation completed without failing on any stack instances.

          • FAILED : The drift detection operation exceeded the specified failure tolerance.

          • PARTIAL_SUCCESS : The drift detection operation completed without exceeding the failure tolerance for the operation.

          • IN_PROGRESS : The drift detection operation is currently being performed.

          • STOPPED : The user has cancelled the drift detection operation.

        • LastDriftCheckTimestamp (datetime) --

          Most recent time when CloudFormation performed a drift detection operation on the stack set. This value will be NULL for any stack set on which drift detection has not yet been performed.

        • TotalStackInstancesCount (integer) --

          The total number of stack instances belonging to this stack set.

          The total number of stack instances is equal to the total of:

          • Stack instances that match the stack set configuration.

          • Stack instances that have drifted from the stack set configuration.

          • Stack instances where the drift detection operation has failed.

          • Stack instances currently being checked for drift.

        • DriftedStackInstancesCount (integer) --

          The number of stack instances that have drifted from the expected template and parameter configuration of the stack set. A stack instance is considered to have drifted if one or more of the resources in the associated stack do not match their expected configuration.

        • InSyncStackInstancesCount (integer) --

          The number of stack instances which match the expected template and parameter configuration of the stack set.

        • InProgressStackInstancesCount (integer) --
