instance-status-ok¶

Description¶

Wait until JMESPath query InstanceStatuses[].InstanceStatus.Status returns ok for all elements when polling with describe-instance-status. It will poll every 15 seconds until a successful state has been reached. This will exit with a return code of 255 after 40 failed checks.

Options¶

--filters (list)

The filters.

availability-zone - The Availability Zone of the instance.

event.code - The code for the scheduled event (instance-reboot | system-reboot | system-maintenance | instance-retirement | instance-stop ).

event.description - A description of the event.

event.instance-event-id - The ID of the event whose date and time you are modifying.

event.not-after - The latest end time for the scheduled event (for example, 2014-09-15T17:15:20.000Z ).

event.not-before - The earliest start time for the scheduled event (for example, 2014-09-15T17:15:20.000Z ).

event.not-before-deadline - The deadline for starting the event (for example, 2014-09-15T17:15:20.000Z ).

instance-state-code - The code for the instance state, as a 16-bit unsigned integer. The high byte is used for internal purposes and should be ignored. The low byte is set based on the state represented. The valid values are 0 (pending), 16 (running), 32 (shutting-down), 48 (terminated), 64 (stopping), and 80 (stopped).

instance-state-name - The state of the instance (pending | running | shutting-down | terminated | stopping | stopped ).

instance-status.reachability - Filters on instance status where the name is reachability (passed | failed | initializing | insufficient-data ).

instance-status.status - The status of the instance (ok | impaired | initializing | insufficient-data | not-applicable ).

system-status.reachability - Filters on system status where the name is reachability (passed | failed | initializing | insufficient-data ).

system-status.status - The system status of the instance (ok | impaired | initializing | insufficient-data | not-applicable ).

(structure)

A filter name and value pair that is used to return a more specific list of results from a describe operation. Filters can be used to match a set of resources by specific criteria, such as tags, attributes, or IDs.

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

Name -> (string)

The name of the filter. Filter names are case-sensitive.

Values -> (list)

The filter values. Filter values are case-sensitive. If you specify multiple values for a filter, the values are joined with an OR , and the request returns all results that match any of the specified values.

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

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

JSON Syntax:

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

--instance-ids (list)

The instance IDs.

Default: Describes all your instances.

Constraints: Maximum 100 explicitly specified instance IDs.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--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 .

--include-all-instances | --no-include-all-instances (boolean)

When true , includes the health status for all instances. When false , includes the health status for running instances only.

Default: false

--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. 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 .

To wait until the status of an instance is OK

The following wait instance-status-ok example pauses and resumes running only after it confirms that the status of the specified instance is OK. It produces no output.

aws ec2 wait instance-status-ok \
    --instance-ids i-1234567890abcdef0

Output¶

None
