/AWS1/CL_EC2INSTREQUIREMENTS00

The attributes for the instance types. When you specify instance attributes, Amazon EC2 will identify instance types with these attributes.

You must specify VCpuCount and MemoryMiB. All other attributes are optional. Any unspecified optional attribute is set to its default.

When you specify multiple attributes, you get instance types that satisfy all of the specified attributes. If you specify multiple values for an attribute, you get instance types that satisfy any of the specified values.

To limit the list of instance types from which Amazon EC2 can identify matching instance types, you can use one of the following parameters, but not both in the same request:

  • AllowedInstanceTypes - The instance types to include in the list. All other instance types are ignored, even if they match your specified attributes.

  • ExcludedInstanceTypes - The instance types to exclude from the list, even if they match your specified attributes.

If you specify InstanceRequirements, you can't specify InstanceType.

Attribute-based instance type selection is only supported when using Auto Scaling groups, EC2 Fleet, and Spot Fleet to launch instances. If you plan to use the launch template in the launch instance wizard, or with the RunInstances API or AWS::EC2::Instance Amazon Web Services CloudFormation resource, you can't specify InstanceRequirements.

For more information, see Attribute-based instance type selection for EC2 Fleet, Attribute-based instance type selection for Spot Fleet, and Spot placement score in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

You can use strings with one or more wild cards, represented by an asterisk (), to exclude an instance family, type, size, or generation. The following are examples: m5.8xlarge, c5., m5a., r, 3.

For example, if you specify c5,Amazon EC2 will exclude the entire C5 instance family, which includes all C5a and C5n instance types. If you specify m5a.*, Amazon EC2 will exclude all the M5a instance types, but not the M5n instance types.

If you specify ExcludedInstanceTypes, you can't specify AllowedInstanceTypes.

Default: No excluded instance types

IT_INSTANCEGENERATIONS TYPE /AWS1/CL_EC2INSTGENERATIONSE00=>TT_INSTANCEGENERATIONSET TT_INSTANCEGENERATIONSET

IV_SPOTMAXPRICEPERCENTAGEO00 TYPE /AWS1/EC2INTEGER /AWS1/EC2INTEGER

[Price protection] The price protection threshold for Spot Instances, as a percentage higher than an identified Spot price. The identified Spot price is the Spot price of the lowest priced current generation C, M, or R instance type with your specified attributes. If no current generation C, M, or R instance type matches your attributes, then the identified Spot price is from the lowest priced current generation instance types, and failing that, from the lowest priced previous generation instance types that match your attributes. When Amazon EC2 selects instance types with your attributes, it will exclude instance types whose Spot price exceeds your specified threshold.

The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 interprets as a percentage.

If you set TargetCapacityUnitType to vcpu or memory-mib, the price protection threshold is applied based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per-instance price.

This parameter is not supported for GetSpotPlacementScores and GetInstanceTypesFromInstanceRequirements.

Only one of SpotMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPrice or MaxSpotPriceAsPercentageOfOptimalOnDemandPrice can be specified. If you don't specify either, Amazon EC2 will automatically apply optimal price protection to consistently select from a wide range of instance types. To indicate no price protection threshold for Spot Instances, meaning you want to consider all instance types that match your attributes, include one of these parameters and specify a high value, such as 999999.

Default: 100

IV_ONDEMMAXPRICEPERCENTAGE00 TYPE /AWS1/EC2INTEGER /AWS1/EC2INTEGER

The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 interprets as a percentage.

To indicate no price protection threshold, specify a high value, such as 999999.

This parameter is not supported for GetSpotPlacementScores and GetInstanceTypesFromInstanceRequirements.

If you set TargetCapacityUnitType to vcpu or memory-mib, the price protection threshold is applied based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per-instance price.
