associate-instance-event-window¶
Description¶
Associates one or more targets with an event window. Only one type of target (instance IDs, Dedicated Host IDs, or tags) can be specified with an event window.
For more information, see Define event windows for scheduled events in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
See also: AWS API Documentation
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Synopsis¶
associate-instance-event-window
[--dry-run | --no-dry-run]
--instance-event-window-id <value>
--association-target <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 isUnauthorizedOperation.
--instance-event-window-id (string)
The ID of the event window.
--association-target (structure)
One or more targets associated with the specified event window.
InstanceIds -> (list)
The IDs of the instances to associate with the event window. If the instance is on a Dedicated Host, you can’t specify the Instance ID parameter; you must use the Dedicated Host ID parameter.
(string)
InstanceTags -> (list)
The instance tags to associate with the event window. Any instances associated with the tags will be associated with the event window.
(structure)
Describes a tag.
Key -> (string)
The key of the tag.
Constraints: Tag keys are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 127 Unicode characters. May not begin with
aws:.Value -> (string)
The value of the tag.
Constraints: Tag values are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 256 Unicode characters.
DedicatedHostIds -> (list)
The IDs of the Dedicated Hosts to associate with the event window.
(string)
Shorthand Syntax:
InstanceIds=string,string,InstanceTags=[{Key=string,Value=string},{Key=string,Value=string}],DedicatedHostIds=string,string
JSON Syntax:
{
"InstanceIds": ["string", ...],
"InstanceTags": [
{
"Key": "string",
"Value": "string"
}
...
],
"DedicatedHostIds": ["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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Examples¶
Note
To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.
Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .
Example 1: To associate one or more instances with an event window
The following associate-instance-event-window example associates one or more instances with an event window.
aws ec2 associate-instance-event-window \
--region us-east-1 \
--instance-event-window-id iew-0abcdef1234567890 \
--association-target "InstanceIds=i-1234567890abcdef0,i-0598c7d356eba48d7"
Output:
{
"InstanceEventWindow": {
"InstanceEventWindowId": "iew-0abcdef1234567890",
"Name": "myEventWindowName",
"CronExpression": "* 21-23 * * 2,3",
"AssociationTarget": {
"InstanceIds": [
"i-1234567890abcdef0",
"i-0598c7d356eba48d7"
],
"Tags": [],
"DedicatedHostIds": []
},
"State": "creating"
}
}
For event window constraints, see Considerations in the Scheduled Events section of the Amazon EC2 User Guide.
Example 2: To associate instance tags with an event window
The following associate-instance-event-window example associates instance tags with an event window. Enter an instance-event-window-id parameter to specify the event window. To associate instance tags, specify the association-target parameter, and for the parameter value, specify one or more tags.
aws ec2 associate-instance-event-window \
--region us-east-1 \
--instance-event-window-id iew-0abcdef1234567890 \
--association-target "InstanceTags=[{Key=k2,Value=v2},{Key=k1,Value=v1}]"
Output:
{
"InstanceEventWindow": {
"InstanceEventWindowId": "iew-0abcdef1234567890",
"Name": "myEventWindowName",
"CronExpression": "* 21-23 * * 2,3",
"AssociationTarget": {
"InstanceIds": [],
"Tags": [
{
"Key": "k2",
"Value": "v2"
},
{
"Key": "k1",
"Value": "v1"
}
],
"DedicatedHostIds": []
},
"State": "creating"
}
}
For event window constraints, see Considerations in the Scheduled Events section of the Amazon EC2 User Guide.
Example 3: To associate a Dedicated Host with an event window
The following associate-instance-event-window example associates a Dedicated Host with an event window. Enter an instance-event-window-id parameter to specify the event window. To associate a Dedicated Host, specify the --association-target parameter, and for the parameter values, specify one of more Dedicated Host IDs.
aws ec2 associate-instance-event-window \
--region us-east-1 \
--instance-event-window-id iew-0abcdef1234567890 \
--association-target "DedicatedHostIds=h-029fa35a02b99801d"
Output:
{
"InstanceEventWindow": {
"InstanceEventWindowId": "iew-0abcdef1234567890",
"Name": "myEventWindowName",
"CronExpression": "* 21-23 * * 2,3",
"AssociationTarget": {
"InstanceIds": [],
"Tags": [],
"DedicatedHostIds": [
"h-029fa35a02b99801d"
]
},
"State": "creating"
}
}
