describe-auto-scaling-groups

Description

Gets information about the Auto Scaling groups in the account and Region.

If you specify Auto Scaling group names, the output includes information for only the specified Auto Scaling groups. If you specify filters, the output includes information for only those Auto Scaling groups that meet the filter criteria. If you do not specify group names or filters, the output includes information for all Auto Scaling groups.

This operation also returns information about instances in Auto Scaling groups. To retrieve information about the instances in a warm pool, you must call the DescribeWarmPool API.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

describe-auto-scaling-groups 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: AutoScalingGroups

Synopsis

  describe-auto-scaling-groups
[--auto-scaling-group-names <value>]
[--filters <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--starting-token <value>]
[--page-size <value>]
[--max-items <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--auto-scaling-group-names (list)

The names of the Auto Scaling groups. By default, you can only specify up to 50 names. You can optionally increase this limit using the MaxRecords parameter.

If you omit this parameter, all Auto Scaling groups are described.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--filters (list)

One or more filters to limit the results based on specific tags.

(structure)

Describes a filter that is used to return a more specific list of results from a describe operation.

If you specify multiple filters, the filters are automatically logically joined with an AND , and the request returns only the results that match all of the specified filters.

For more information, see Tagging Auto Scaling groups and instances in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide .

Name -> (string)

The name of the filter.

The valid values for Name depend on which API operation you’re using with the filter ( DescribeAutoScalingGroups or DescribeTags ).

DescribeAutoScalingGroups

Valid values for Name include the following:

• tag-key - Accepts tag keys. The results only include information about the Auto Scaling groups associated with these tag keys.

• tag-value - Accepts tag values. The results only include information about the Auto Scaling groups associated with these tag values.

• tag:<key> - Accepts the key/value combination of the tag. Use the tag key in the filter name and the tag value as the filter value. The results only include information about the Auto Scaling groups associated with the specified key/value combination.

DescribeTags

Valid values for Name include the following:

• auto-scaling-group - Accepts the names of Auto Scaling groups. The results only include information about the tags associated with these Auto Scaling groups.

• key - Accepts tag keys. The results only include information about the tags associated with these tag keys.

• value - Accepts tag values. The results only include information about the tags associated with these tag values.

• propagate-at-launch - Accepts a Boolean value, which specifies whether tags propagate to instances at launch. The results only include information about the tags associated with the specified Boolean value.

Values -> (list)

One or more filter values. Filter values are case-sensitive.

If you specify multiple values for a filter, the values are automatically logically joined with an OR , and the request returns all results that match any of the specified values. For example, specify “tag:environment” for the filter name and “production,development” for the filter values to find Auto Scaling groups with the tag “environment=production” or “environment=development”.

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

Name=string,Values=string,string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Name": "string",
    "Values": ["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.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

If you specify prioritized , Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses the priority that you assigned to each launch template override, launching the highest priority first. If all your On-Demand capacity cannot be fulfilled using your highest priority instance, then Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches the remaining capacity using the second priority instance type, and so on.

Default: lowest-price for Auto Scaling groups that specify InstanceRequirements in the overrides and prioritized for Auto Scaling groups that don’t.

OnDemandBaseCapacity -> (integer)

OnDemandPercentageAboveBaseCapacity -> (integer)

Controls the percentages of On-Demand Instances and Spot Instances for your additional capacity beyond OnDemandBaseCapacity . Expressed as a number (for example, 20 specifies 20% On-Demand Instances, 80% Spot Instances). If set to 100, only On-Demand Instances are used.

Default: 100

SpotAllocationStrategy -> (string)

Indicates how to allocate instances across Spot Instance pools.

If the allocation strategy is lowest-price , the Auto Scaling group launches instances using the Spot pools with the lowest price, and evenly allocates your instances across the number of Spot pools that you specify.

If the allocation strategy is capacity-optimized (recommended), the Auto Scaling group launches instances using Spot pools that are optimally chosen based on the available Spot capacity. Alternatively, you can use capacity-optimized-prioritized and set the order of instance types in the list of launch template overrides from highest to lowest priority (from first to last in the list). Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling honors the instance type priorities on a best-effort basis but optimizes for capacity first.

Default: lowest-price

SpotInstancePools -> (integer)
