Synopsis

  describe-services
[--cluster <value>]
--services <value>
[--include <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--cluster (string)

The short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN)the cluster that hosts the service to describe. If you do not specify a cluster, the default cluster is assumed. This parameter is required if the service or services you are describing were launched in any cluster other than the default cluster.

--services (list)

A list of services to describe. You may specify up to 10 services to describe in a single operation.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--include (list)

Specifies whether you want to see the resource tags for the service. If TAGS is specified, the tags are included in the response. If this field is omitted, tags are not included in the response.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

Where valid values are:
  TAGS

--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.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Output

services -> (list)

The list of services described.

(structure)

Details on a service within a cluster

serviceArn -> (string)

The ARN that identifies the service. The ARN contains the arn:aws:ecs namespace, followed by the Region of the service, the AWS account ID of the service owner, the service namespace, and then the service name. For example, arn:aws:ecs:region:012345678910:service/my-service .

serviceName -> (string)

The name of your service. Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, and hyphens are allowed. Service names must be unique within a cluster, but you can have similarly named services in multiple clusters within a Region or across multiple Regions.

clusterArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the cluster that hosts the service.

loadBalancers -> (list)

A list of Elastic Load Balancing load balancer objects, containing the load balancer name, the container name (as it appears in a container definition), and the container port to access from the load balancer.

(structure)

The load balancer configuration to use with a service or task set.

For specific notes and restrictions regarding the use of load balancers with services and task sets, see the CreateService and CreateTaskSet actions.

targetGroupArn -> (string)

The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.

A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you are using a Classic Load Balancer the target group ARN should be omitted.

For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you are required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

Warning

If your service’s task definition uses the awsvpc network mode (which is required for the Fargate launch type), you must choose ip as the target type, not instance , when creating your target groups because tasks that use the awsvpc network mode are associated with an elastic network interface, not an Amazon EC2 instance.

loadBalancerName -> (string)

The name of the load balancer to associate with the Amazon ECS service or task set.

A load balancer name is only specified when using a Classic Load Balancer. If you are using an Application Load Balancer or a Network Load Balancer the load balancer name parameter should be omitted.

containerName -> (string)

The name of the container (as it appears in a container definition) to associate with the load balancer.

containerPort -> (integer)

The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. This port must correspond to a containerPort in the task definition the tasks in the service are using. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the container instance they are launched on must allow ingress traffic on the hostPort of the port mapping.

serviceRegistries -> (list)

The details of the service discovery registries to assign to this service. For more information, see Service Discovery .

(structure)

Details of the service registry.

registryArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the service registry. The currently supported service registry is AWS Cloud Map. For more information, see CreateService .

port -> (integer)

The port value used if your service discovery service specified an SRV record. This field may be used if both the awsvpc network mode and SRV records are used.

containerName -> (string)

The container name value, already specified in the task definition, to be used for your service discovery service. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value, but not both.

containerPort -> (integer)

The port value, already specified in the task definition, to be used for your service discovery service. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value, but not both.

status -> (string)

The status of the service. The valid values are ACTIVE , DRAINING , or INACTIVE .

desiredCount -> (integer)

The desired number of instantiations of the task definition to keep running on the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService , and it can be modified with UpdateService .

runningCount -> (integer)

The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the RUNNING state.

pendingCount -> (integer)

The number of tasks in the cluster that are in the PENDING state.

launchType -> (string)

The launch type on which your service is running. If no value is specified, it will default to EC2 . Valid values include EC2 and FARGATE . For more information, see Amazon ECS Launch Types in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

capacityProviderStrategy -> (list)

The capacity provider strategy associated with the service.

(structure)

The details of a capacity provider strategy.

capacityProvider -> (string)

The short name of the capacity provider.

weight -> (integer)

The weight value designates the relative percentage of the total number of tasks launched that should use the specified capacity provider.

For example, if you have a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1 , then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB , then for every one task that is run using capacityProviderA , four tasks would use capacityProviderB .

base -> (integer)

The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined.

platformVersion -> (string)

The platform version on which to run your service. A platform version is only specified for tasks using the Fargate launch type. If one is not specified, the LATEST platform version is used by default. For more information, see AWS Fargate Platform Versions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

taskDefinition -> (string)

The task definition to use for tasks in the service. This value is specified when the service is created with CreateService , and it can be modified with UpdateService .

deploymentConfiguration -> (structure)

Optional deployment parameters that control how many tasks run during the deployment and the ordering of stopping and starting tasks.

deploymentCircuitBreaker -> (structure)

Note

The deployment circuit breaker can only be used for services using the rolling update (ECS ) deployment type.

The deployment circuit breaker determines whether a service deployment will fail if the service can’t reach a steady state. If deployment circuit breaker is enabled, a service deployment will transition to a failed state and stop launching new tasks. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.

enable -> (boolean)

Whether to enable the deployment circuit breaker logic for the service.

rollback -> (boolean)

Whether to enable Amazon ECS to roll back the service if a service deployment fails. If rollback is enabled, when a service deployment fails, the service is rolled back to the last deployment that completed successfully.

maximumPercent -> (integer)

If a service is using the rolling update (ECS ) deployment type, the maximum percent parameter represents an upper limit on the number of tasks in a service that are allowed in the RUNNING or PENDING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded down to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to define the deployment batch size. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a maximum percent value of 200%, the scheduler may start four new tasks before stopping the four older tasks (provided that the cluster resources required to do this are available). The default value for maximum percent is 200%.

If a service is using the blue/green (CODE_DEPLOY ) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the maximum percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the upper limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the maximum percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.

minimumHealthyPercent -> (integer)

If a service is using the rolling update (ECS ) deployment type, the minimum healthy percent represents a lower limit on the number of tasks in a service that must remain in the RUNNING state during a deployment, as a percentage of the desired number of tasks (rounded up to the nearest integer), and while any container instances are in the DRAINING state if the service contains tasks using the EC2 launch type. This parameter enables you to deploy without using additional cluster capacity. For example, if your service has a desired number of four tasks and a minimum healthy percent of 50%, the scheduler may stop two existing tasks to free up cluster capacity before starting two new tasks. Tasks for services that do not use a load balancer are considered healthy if they are in the RUNNING state; tasks for services that do use a load balancer are considered healthy if they are in the RUNNING state and they are reported as healthy by the load balancer. The default value for minimum healthy percent is 100%.

If a service is using the blue/green (CODE_DEPLOY ) or EXTERNAL deployment types and tasks that use the EC2 launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is set to the default value and is used to define the lower limit on the number of the tasks in the service that remain in the RUNNING state while the container instances are in the DRAINING state. If the tasks in the service use the Fargate launch type, the minimum healthy percent value is not used, although it is returned when describing your service.

taskSets -> (list)

Information about a set of Amazon ECS tasks in either an AWS CodeDeploy or an EXTERNAL deployment. An Amazon ECS task set includes details such as the desired number of tasks, how many tasks are running, and whether the task set serves production traffic.

The external ID associated with the task set.

If a task set is created by an AWS CodeDeploy deployment, the externalId parameter contains the AWS CodeDeploy deployment ID.

If a task set is created for an external deployment and is associated with a service discovery registry, the externalId parameter contains the ECS_TASK_SET_EXTERNAL_ID AWS Cloud Map attribute.

taskDefinition -> (string)

The task definition the task set is using.

computedDesiredCount -> (integer)

The computed desired count for the task set. This is calculated by multiplying the service’s desiredCount by the task set’s scale percentage. The result is always rounded up. For example, if the computed desired count is 1.2, it rounds up to 2 tasks.

pendingCount -> (integer)

The number of tasks in the task set that are in the PENDING status during a deployment. A task in the PENDING state is preparing to enter the RUNNING state. A task set enters the PENDING status when it launches for the first time or when it is restarted after being in the STOPPED state.

For example, if you have a strategy that contains two capacity providers and both have a weight of 1 , then when the base is satisfied, the tasks will be split evenly across the two capacity providers. Using that same logic, if you specify a weight of 1 for capacityProviderA and a weight of 4 for capacityProviderB , then for every one task that is run using capacityProviderA , four tasks would use capacityProviderB .

base -> (integer)

The base value designates how many tasks, at a minimum, to run on the specified capacity provider. Only one capacity provider in a capacity provider strategy can have a base defined.

platformVersion -> (string)

The platform version on which the tasks in the task set are running. A platform version is only specified for tasks using the Fargate launch type.

The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Elastic Load Balancing target group or groups associated with a service or task set.

A target group ARN is only specified when using an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer. If you are using a Classic Load Balancer the target group ARN should be omitted.

For services using the ECS deployment controller, you can specify one or multiple target groups. For more information, see Registering Multiple Target Groups with a Service in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

For services using the CODE_DEPLOY deployment controller, you are required to define two target groups for the load balancer. For more information, see Blue/Green Deployment with CodeDeploy in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

Warning

If your service’s task definition uses the awsvpc network mode (which is required for the Fargate launch type), you must choose ip as the target type, not instance , when creating your target groups because tasks that use the awsvpc network mode are associated with an elastic network interface, not an Amazon EC2 instance.

containerName -> (string)

The container name value, already specified in the task definition, to be used for your service discovery service. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition that your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value, but not both.

containerPort -> (integer)

The port value, already specified in the task definition, to be used for your service discovery service. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the bridge or host network mode, you must specify a containerName and containerPort combination from the task definition. If the task definition your service task specifies uses the awsvpc network mode and a type SRV DNS record is used, you must specify either a containerName and containerPort combination or a port value, but not both.

scale -> (structure)

A floating-point percentage of the desired number of tasks to place and keep running in the task set.

value -> (double)

The value, specified as a percent total of a service’s desiredCount , to scale the task set. Accepted values are numbers between 0 and 100.

An object representing a constraint on task placement. For more information, see Task Placement Constraints in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

Note

If you are using the Fargate launch type, task placement constraints are not supported.

type -> (string)

The type of constraint. Use distinctInstance to ensure that each task in a particular group is running on a different container instance. Use memberOf to restrict the selection to a group of valid candidates.

expression -> (string)

A cluster query language expression to apply to the constraint. You cannot specify an expression if the constraint type is distinctInstance . For more information, see Cluster Query Language in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

placementStrategy -> (list)

The placement strategy that determines how tasks for the service are placed.

(structure)

The task placement strategy for a task or service. For more information, see Task Placement Strategies in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

type -> (string)

The type of placement strategy. The random placement strategy randomly places tasks on available candidates. The spread placement strategy spreads placement across available candidates evenly based on the field parameter. The binpack strategy places tasks on available candidates that have the least available amount of the resource that is specified with the field parameter. For example, if you binpack on memory, a task is placed on the instance with the least amount of remaining memory (but still enough to run the task).

field -> (string)

The field to apply the placement strategy against. For the spread placement strategy, valid values are instanceId (or host , which has the same effect), or any platform or custom attribute that is applied to a container instance, such as attribute:ecs.availability-zone . For the binpack placement strategy, valid values are cpu and memory . For the random placement strategy, this field is not used.

networkConfiguration -> (structure)

The VPC subnet and security group configuration for tasks that receive their own elastic network interface by using the awsvpc networking mode.

awsvpcConfiguration -> (structure)

The VPC subnets and security groups associated with a task.

Note

All specified subnets and security groups must be from the same VPC.

subnets -> (list)

The IDs of the subnets associated with the task or service. There is a limit of 16 subnets that can be specified per AwsVpcConfiguration .

Note

All specified subnets must be from the same VPC.

(string)

securityGroups -> (list)

The IDs of the security groups associated with the task or service. If you do not specify a security group, the default security group for the VPC is used. There is a limit of 5 security groups that can be specified per AwsVpcConfiguration .

Note

All specified security groups must be from the same VPC.

(string)

assignPublicIp -> (string)

Whether the task’s elastic network interface receives a public IP address. The default value is DISABLED .

healthCheckGracePeriodSeconds -> (integer)

The period of time, in seconds, that the Amazon ECS service scheduler ignores unhealthy Elastic Load Balancing target health checks after a task has first started.

schedulingStrategy -> (string)

The scheduling strategy to use for the service. For more information, see Services .

There are two service scheduler strategies available:

  • REPLICA -The replica scheduling strategy places and maintains the desired number of tasks across your cluster. By default, the service scheduler spreads tasks across Availability Zones. You can use task placement strategies and constraints to customize task placement decisions.

  • DAEMON -The daemon scheduling strategy deploys exactly one task on each active container instance that meets all of the task placement constraints that you specify in your cluster. The service scheduler also evaluates the task placement constraints for running tasks and will stop tasks that do not meet the placement constraints.

Note

Fargate tasks do not support the DAEMON scheduling strategy.

deploymentController -> (structure)

The deployment controller type the service is using. When using the DescribeServices API, this field is omitted if the service is using the ECS deployment controller type.

type -> (string)

The deployment controller type to use.

There are three deployment controller types available:

ECS

The rolling update (ECS ) deployment type involves replacing the current running version of the container with the latest version. The number of containers Amazon ECS adds or removes from the service during a rolling update is controlled by adjusting the minimum and maximum number of healthy tasks allowed during a service deployment, as specified in the DeploymentConfiguration .

CODE_DEPLOY

The blue/green (CODE_DEPLOY ) deployment type uses the blue/green deployment model powered by AWS CodeDeploy, which allows you to verify a new deployment of a service before sending production traffic to it.

EXTERNAL

The external (EXTERNAL ) deployment type enables you to use any third-party deployment controller for full control over the deployment process for an Amazon ECS service.

tags -> (list)

The metadata that you apply to the service to help you categorize and organize them. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.

The following basic restrictions apply to tags:

  • Maximum number of tags per resource - 50

  • For each resource, each tag key must be unique, and each tag key can have only one value.

  • Maximum key length - 128 Unicode characters in UTF-8

  • Maximum value length - 256 Unicode characters in UTF-8

  • If your tagging schema is used across multiple services and resources, remember that other services may have restrictions on allowed characters. Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : / @.

  • Tag keys and values are case-sensitive.

  • Do not use aws: , AWS: , or any upper or lowercase combination of such as a prefix for either keys or values as it is reserved for AWS use. You cannot edit or delete tag keys or values with this prefix. Tags with this prefix do not count against your tags per resource limit.

key -> (string)

One part of a key-value pair that make up a tag. A key is a general label that acts like a category for more specific tag values.

value -> (string)

The optional part of a key-value pair that make up a tag. A value acts as a descriptor within a tag category (key).

createdBy -> (string)

The principal that created the service.

enableECSManagedTags -> (boolean)

Specifies whether to enable Amazon ECS managed tags for the tasks in the service. For more information, see Tagging Your Amazon ECS Resources in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

propagateTags -> (string)

Specifies whether to propagate the tags from the task definition or the service to the task. If no value is specified, the tags are not propagated.

failures -> (list)

Any failures associated with the call.

(structure)

A failed resource. For a list of common causes, see API failure reasons in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide .

arn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the failed resource.

reason -> (string)

The reason for the failure.

detail -> (string)

The details of the failure.
