Description

Modifies the credit option for CPU usage on a running or stopped burstable performance instance. The credit options are standard and unlimited .

For more information, see Burstable performance instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  modify-instance-credit-specification
[--dry-run | --no-dry-run]
[--client-token <value>]
--instance-credit-specifications <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--dry-run | --no-dry-run (boolean)

Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation . Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation .

--client-token (string)

A unique, case-sensitive token that you provide to ensure idempotency of your modification request. For more information, see Ensuring Idempotency .

--instance-credit-specifications (list)

Information about the credit option for CPU usage.

(structure)

Describes the credit option for CPU usage of a burstable performance instance.

InstanceId -> (string)

The ID of the instance.

CpuCredits -> (string)

The credit option for CPU usage of the instance. Valid values are standard and unlimited .

T3 instances with host tenancy do not support the unlimited CPU credit option.

Shorthand Syntax:

InstanceId=string,CpuCredits=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "InstanceId": "string",
    "CpuCredits": "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.

--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.

Examples

To modify the credit option for CPU usage of an instance

This example modifies the credit option for CPU usage of the specified instance in the specified region to “unlimited”. Valid credit options are “standard” and “unlimited”.

Command:

aws ec2 modify-instance-credit-specification --instance-credit-specification "InstanceId=i-1234567890abcdef0,CpuCredits=unlimited"

Output:

{
  "SuccessfulInstanceCreditSpecifications": [
    {
      "InstanceId": "i-1234567890abcdef0"
    }
  ],
  "UnsuccessfulInstanceCreditSpecifications": []
}

Output

SuccessfulInstanceCreditSpecifications -> (list)

Information about the instances whose credit option for CPU usage was successfully modified.

(structure)

Describes the burstable performance instance whose credit option for CPU usage was successfully modified.

InstanceId -> (string)

The ID of the instance.

UnsuccessfulInstanceCreditSpecifications -> (list)

Information about the instances whose credit option for CPU usage was not modified.

(structure)

Describes the burstable performance instance whose credit option for CPU usage was not modified.

InstanceId -> (string)

The ID of the instance.

Error -> (structure)

The applicable error for the burstable performance instance whose credit option for CPU usage was not modified.

Code -> (string)

The error code.

Message -> (string)

The applicable error message.
