Description

Lists the properties of available patches organized by product, product family, classification, severity, and other properties of available patches. You can use the reported properties in the filters you specify in requests for actions such as CreatePatchBaseline , UpdatePatchBaseline , DescribeAvailablePatches , and DescribePatchBaselines .

The following section lists the properties that can be used in filters for each major operating system type:

WINDOWS

Valid properties: PRODUCT, PRODUCT_FAMILY, CLASSIFICATION, MSRC_SEVERITY

AMAZON_LINUX

Valid properties: PRODUCT, CLASSIFICATION, SEVERITY

AMAZON_LINUX_2

Valid properties: PRODUCT, CLASSIFICATION, SEVERITY

UBUNTU

Valid properties: PRODUCT, PRIORITY

REDHAT_ENTERPRISE_LINUX

Valid properties: PRODUCT, CLASSIFICATION, SEVERITY

SUSE

Valid properties: PRODUCT, CLASSIFICATION, SEVERITY

CENTOS

Valid properties: PRODUCT, CLASSIFICATION, SEVERITY

Synopsis

  describe-patch-properties
--operating-system <value>
--property <value>
[--patch-set <value>]
[--max-results <value>]
[--next-token <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options

--operating-system (string)

The operating system type for which to list patches.

Possible values:

• WINDOWS

• AMAZON_LINUX

• AMAZON_LINUX_2

• UBUNTU

• REDHAT_ENTERPRISE_LINUX

• SUSE

• CENTOS

• ORACLE_LINUX

• DEBIAN

--property (string)

The patch property for which you want to view patch details.

Possible values:

• PRODUCT

• PRODUCT_FAMILY

• CLASSIFICATION

• MSRC_SEVERITY

• PRIORITY

• SEVERITY

--patch-set (string)

Indicates whether to list patches for the Windows operating system or for Microsoft applications. Not applicable for Linux operating systems.

Possible values:

• OS

• APPLICATION

--max-results (integer)

The maximum number of items to return for this call. The call also returns a token that you can specify in a subsequent call to get the next set of results.

--next-token (string)

The token for the next set of items to return. (You received this token from a previous call.)

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean) Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

To list the Amazon Linux patch availability

The following describe-patch-properties example displays a list of the Amazon Linux products for which patches are available in your AWS account.

aws ssm describe-patch-properties \
    --operating-system AMAZON_LINUX \
    --property PRODUCTS

Output:

{
    "Properties": [
        {
            "Name": "AmazonLinux2012.03"
        },
        {
            "Name": "AmazonLinux2012.09"
        },
        {
            "Name": "AmazonLinux2013.03"
        },
        {
