update-maintenance-window-task

Description

Modifies a task assigned to a maintenance window. You can’t change the task type, but you can change the following values:

• TaskARN. For example, you can change a RUN_COMMAND task from AWS-RunPowerShellScript to AWS-RunShellScript.

• ServiceRoleArn

• TaskInvocationParameters

• Priority

• MaxConcurrency

• MaxErrors

Note

One or more targets must be specified for maintenance window Run Command-type tasks. Depending on the task, targets are optional for other maintenance window task types (Automation, AWS Lambda, and AWS Step Functions). For more information about running tasks that do not specify targets, see Registering maintenance window tasks without targets in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide .

If the value for a parameter in UpdateMaintenanceWindowTask is null, then the corresponding field is not modified. If you set Replace to true, then all fields required by the RegisterTaskWithMaintenanceWindow action are required for this request. Optional fields that aren’t specified are set to null.

Warning

When you update a maintenance window task that has options specified in TaskInvocationParameters , you must provide again all the TaskInvocationParameters values that you want to retain. The values you do not specify again are removed. For example, suppose that when you registered a Run Command task, you specified TaskInvocationParameters values for Comment , NotificationConfig , and OutputS3BucketName . If you update the maintenance window task and specify only a different OutputS3BucketName value, the values for Comment and NotificationConfig are removed.

--max-errors (string)

The new MaxErrors value to specify. MaxErrors is the maximum number of errors that are allowed before the task stops being scheduled.

Note

For maintenance window tasks without a target specified, you cannot supply a value for this option. Instead, the system inserts a placeholder value of 1 , which may be reported in the response to this command. This value does not affect the running of your task and can be ignored.

--logging-info (structure)

--replace | --no-replace (boolean)

If True, then all fields that are required by the RegisterTaskWithMaintenanceWindow action are also required for this API request. Optional fields that are not specified are set to null.

--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.
