reset-instance-attribute

Description

Resets an attribute of an instance to its default value. To reset the kernel or ramdisk , the instance must be in a stopped state. To reset the sourceDestCheck , the instance can be either running or stopped.

The sourceDestCheck attribute controls whether source/destination checking is enabled. The default value is true , which means checking is enabled. This value must be false for a NAT instance to perform NAT. For more information, see NAT Instances in the Amazon VPC User Guide .

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  reset-instance-attribute
--attribute <value>
[--dry-run | --no-dry-run]
--instance-id <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--attribute (string)

The attribute to reset.

Warning

You can only reset the following attributes: kernel | ramdisk | sourceDestCheck . To change an instance attribute, use ModifyInstanceAttribute .

Possible values:

• instanceType

• kernel

• ramdisk

• userData

• disableApiTermination

• instanceInitiatedShutdownBehavior

• rootDeviceName

• blockDeviceMapping

• productCodes

• sourceDestCheck

• groupSet

• ebsOptimized

• sriovNetSupport

• enaSupport

• enclaveOptions

--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 .

--instance-id (string)

The ID of the instance.

--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 reset the sourceDestCheck attribute

This example resets the sourceDestCheck attribute of the specified instance. The instance must be in a VPC. If the command succeeds, no output is returned.

Command:

aws ec2 reset-instance-attribute --instance-id i-1234567890abcdef0 --attribute sourceDestCheck

To reset the kernel attribute

This example resets the kernel attribute of the specified instance. The instance must be in the stopped state. If the command succeeds, no output is returned.

Command:

aws ec2 reset-instance-attribute --instance-id i-1234567890abcdef0 --attribute kernel

To reset the ramdisk attribute

This example resets the ramdisk attribute of the specified instance. The instance must be in the stopped state. If the command succeeds, no output is returned.

Command:

aws ec2 reset-instance-attribute --instance-id i-1234567890abcdef0 --attribute ramdisk

Output

None
