describe-fleet-utilization

Description

Retrieves utilization statistics for one or more fleets. These statistics provide insight into how available hosting resources are currently being used. To get statistics on available hosting resources, see DescribeFleetCapacity .

You can request utilization data for all fleets, or specify a list of one or more fleet IDs. When requesting multiple fleets, use the pagination parameters to retrieve results as a set of sequential pages. If successful, a FleetUtilization object is returned for each requested fleet ID, unless the fleet identifier is not found.

Note

Some API actions may limit the number of fleet IDs allowed in one request. If a request exceeds this limit, the request fails and the error message includes the maximum allowed.

describe-fleet-utilization is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: FleetUtilization

Synopsis

  describe-fleet-utilization
[--fleet-ids <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--starting-token <value>]
[--page-size <value>]
[--max-items <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options

--fleet-ids (list)

A unique identifier for a fleet(s) to retrieve utilization data for. You can use either the fleet ID or ARN value. To retrieve attributes for all current fleets, do not include this parameter. If the list of fleet identifiers includes fleets that don’t currently exist, the request succeeds but no attributes for that fleet are returned.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--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.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command’s output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command’s output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command’s output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--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

Example1: To view usage data for a list of fleets

The following describe-fleet-utilization example retrieves current usage information for one specified fleet.

aws gamelift describe-fleet-utilization \
    --fleet-ids arn:aws:gamelift:us-west-2::fleet/fleet-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111

Output:

{
    "FleetUtilization": [
        {
        "FleetId": "fleet-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111",
        "ActiveServerProcessCount": 100,
        "ActiveGameSessionCount": 62,
        "CurrentPlayerSessionCount": 329,
        "MaximumPlayerSessionCount": 1000
        }
    ]
}

Example2: To request usage data for all fleets

The following describe-fleet-utilization returns fleet usage data for all fleets with any status. This example uses pagination parameters to return data for two fleets at a time.

aws gamelift describe-fleet-utilization \
    --limit 2

Output:

{
    "FleetUtilization": [
        {
            "FleetId": "fleet-1111aaaa-22bb-33cc-44dd-5555eeee66ff",
            "ActiveServerProcessCount": 100,
            "ActiveGameSessionCount": 13,
            "CurrentPlayerSessionCount": 98,
            "MaximumPlayerSessionCount": 1000
        },
        {
            "FleetId": "fleet-2222bbbb-33cc-44dd-55ee-6666ffff77aa",
            "ActiveServerProcessCount": 100,
            "ActiveGameSessionCount": 62,
            "CurrentPlayerSessionCount": 329,
            "MaximumPlayerSessionCount": 1000
        }
    ],
    "NextToken": "eyJhd3NBY2NvdW50SWQiOnsicyI6IjMwMjc3NjAxNjM5OCJ9LCJidWlsZElkIjp7InMiOiJidWlsZC01NWYxZTZmMS1jY2FlLTQ3YTctOWI5ZS1iYjFkYTQwMjEXAMPLE2"
}

Call the command a second time, passing the NextToken value as the argument to the --next-token parameter to see the next two results.

aws gamelift describe-fleet-utilization \
    --limit 2 \
    --next-token eyJhd3NBY2NvdW50SWQiOnsicyI6IjMwMjc3NjAxNjM5OCJ9LCJidWlsZElkIjp7InMiOiJidWlsZC01NWYxZTZmMS1jY2FlLTQ3YTctOWI5ZS1iYjFkYTQwMjEXAMPLE2

Repeat until the response no longer includes a NextToken value in the output.
