--order-id (string)

The ID of the Amazon Web Services Outposts order associated with the specified capacity task.

--instance-pools (list)

(structure)

The instance type that you specify determines the combination of CPU, memory, storage, and networking capacity.

InstanceType -> (string)

The instance type of the hosts.

Count -> (integer)

The number of instances for the specified instance type.

Shorthand Syntax:

InstanceType=string,Count=integer ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "InstanceType": "string",
    "Count": integer
  }
  ...
]

--dry-run | --no-dry-run (boolean)

You can request a dry run to determine if the instance type and instance size changes is above or below available instance capacity. Requesting a dry run does not make any changes to your plan.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI 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.

--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. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

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)
