update-fleet-capacity

Description

Updates capacity settings for a fleet. For fleets with multiple locations, use this operation to manage capacity settings in each location individually. Fleet capacity determines the number of game sessions and players that can be hosted based on the fleet configuration. Use this operation to set the following fleet capacity properties:

  • Minimum/maximum size: Set hard limits on fleet capacity. GameLift cannot set the fleet’s capacity to a value outside of this range, whether the capacity is changed manually or through automatic scaling.

  • Desired capacity: Manually set the number of Amazon EC2 instances to be maintained in a fleet location. Before changing a fleet’s desired capacity, you may want to call DescribeEC2InstanceLimits to get the maximum capacity of the fleet’s Amazon EC2 instance type. Alternatively, consider using automatic scaling to adjust capacity based on player demand.

This operation can be used in the following ways:

  • To update capacity for a fleet’s home Region, or if the fleet has no remote locations, omit the Location parameter. The fleet must be in ACTIVE status.

  • To update capacity for a fleet’s remote location, include the Location parameter set to the location to be updated. The location must be in ACTIVE status.

If successful, capacity settings are updated immediately. In response a change in desired capacity, GameLift initiates steps to start new instances or terminate existing instances in the requested fleet location. This continues until the location’s active instance count matches the new desired instance count. You can track a fleet’s current capacity by calling DescribeFleetCapacity or DescribeFleetLocationCapacity . If the requested desired instance count is higher than the instance type’s limit, the LimitExceeded exception occurs.

Options

--fleet-id (string)

A unique identifier for the fleet to update capacity settings for. You can use either the fleet ID or ARN value.

--desired-instances (integer)

The number of Amazon EC2 instances you want to maintain in the specified fleet location. This value must fall between the minimum and maximum size limits.

--min-size (integer)

The minimum number of instances that are allowed in the specified fleet location. If this parameter is not set, the default is 0.

--max-size (integer)

The maximum number of instances that are allowed in the specified fleet location. If this parameter is not set, the default is 1.

--location (string)

The name of a remote location to update fleet capacity settings for, in the form of an Amazon Web Services Region code such as us-west-2 .

--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.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json

  • text

  • table

  • yaml

  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on

  • off

  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64

  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

Output

FleetId -> (string)

A unique identifier for the fleet that was updated.

FleetArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN ) that is assigned to a GameLift fleet resource and uniquely identifies it. ARNs are unique across all Regions. Format is arn:aws:gamelift:<region>::fleet/fleet-a1234567-b8c9-0d1e-2fa3-b45c6d7e8912 .

Location -> (string)

The remote location being updated, expressed as an Amazon Web Services Region code, such as us-west-2 .
