Modifies a Capacity Reservation’s capacity and the conditions under which it is to be released. You cannot change a Capacity Reservation’s instance type, EBS optimization, instance store settings, platform, Availability Zone, or instance eligibility. If you need to modify any of these attributes, we recommend that you cancel the Capacity Reservation, and then create a new one with the required attributes.

--capacity-reservation-id
(string)
The ID of the Capacity Reservation.
--instance-count
(integer)
The number of instances for which to reserve capacity. The number of instances can’t be increased or decreased by more than
1000
in a single request.
--end-date
(timestamp)
The date and time at which the Capacity Reservation expires. When a Capacity Reservation expires, the reserved capacity is released and you can no longer launch instances into it. The Capacity Reservation’s state changes to
expired
when it reaches its end date and time.The Capacity Reservation is cancelled within an hour from the specified time. For example, if you specify 5/31/2019, 13:30:55, the Capacity Reservation is guaranteed to end between 13:30:55 and 14:30:55 on 5/31/2019.
You must provide an
EndDate
value ifEndDateType
islimited
. OmitEndDate
ifEndDateType
isunlimited
.
--end-date-type
(string)
Indicates the way in which the Capacity Reservation ends. A Capacity Reservation can have one of the following end types:
unlimited
- The Capacity Reservation remains active until you explicitly cancel it. Do not provide anEndDate
value ifEndDateType
isunlimited
.
limited
- The Capacity Reservation expires automatically at a specified date and time. You must provide anEndDate
value ifEndDateType
islimited
.Possible values:
unlimited
limited
--accept
| --no-accept
(boolean)
Reserved. Capacity Reservations you have created are accepted by default.
--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
.
--additional-info
(string)
Reserved for future use.
--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.

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 change the number of instances reserved by an existing capacity reservation
The following modify-capacity-reservation
example changes the number of instances for which the capacity reservation reserves capacity.
aws ec2 modify-capacity-reservation \
--capacity-reservation-id cr-1234abcd56EXAMPLE \
--instance-count 5
Output:
{
"Return": true
}
Example 2: To change the end date and time for an existing capacity reservation
The following modify-capacity-reservation
example modifies an existing capacity reservation to end at the specified date and time.
aws ec2 modify-capacity-reservation \
--capacity-reservation-id cr-1234abcd56EXAMPLE \
--end-date-type limited \
--end-date 2019-08-31T23:59:59Z
