Overview
Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.
Service Description
With Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager, you can manage the lifecycle of your Amazon Web Services resources. You create lifecycle policies, which are used to automate operations on the specified resources.
Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager supports Amazon EBS volumes and snapshots. For information about using Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager with Amazon EBS, see Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.
Sending a Request Using DLM
var dlm = new AWS.DLM();
dlm.createLifecyclePolicy(params, function (err, data) {
if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
else console.log(data); // successful response
});
Locking the API Version
In order to ensure that the DLM object uses this specific API, you can
construct the object by passing the apiVersion
option to the constructor:
var dlm = new AWS.DLM({apiVersion: '2018-01-12'});
You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions
using
the dlm service identifier:
AWS.config.apiVersions = {
dlm: '2018-01-12',
// other service API versions
};
var dlm = new AWS.DLM();

POST
. In this case, Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager calls the SSM document with thepost-script
parameter after initiating snapshot creation. -
To run both pre and post scripts, specify both
PRE
andPOST

false
.
This parameter is supported only if you run a pre script. If you run a post script only, omit this parameter.
Default: true
-
ExecutionTimeout
— (Integer
)Specifies a timeout period, in seconds, after which Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager fails the script run attempt if it has not completed. If a script does not complete within its timeout period, Amazon Data Lifecycle Manager fails the attempt. The timeout period applies to the pre and post scripts individually.
If you are automating VSS Backups, omit this parameter.

MaximumRetryCount
