Remarks

The AWS::AutoScaling::LaunchConfiguration resource specifies the launch configuration that can be used by an Auto Scaling group to configure Amazon EC2 instances.

When you update the launch configuration for an Auto Scaling group, CloudFormation deletes that resource and creates a new launch configuration with the updated properties and a new name. Existing instances are not affected. To update existing instances when you update the AWS::AutoScaling::LaunchConfiguration resource, you can specify an UpdatePolicy attribute for the group. You can find sample update policies for rolling updates in Auto scaling template snippets .

Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling configures instances launched as part of an Auto Scaling group using either a <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-ec2-launchtemplate.html">launch template</a> or a launch configuration. We strongly recommend that you do not use launch configurations. They do not provide full functionality for Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling or Amazon EC2. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/ec2/userguide/launch-configurations.html">Launch configurations</a> and <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/ec2/userguide/migrate-launch-configurations-with-cloudformation.html">Migrate AWS CloudFormation stacks from launch configurations to launch templates</a> in the <em>Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide</em> .

Constructors

CfnLaunchConfiguration(Construct, string, ICfnLaunchConfigurationProps)

Create a new AWS::AutoScaling::LaunchConfiguration.

public CfnLaunchConfiguration(Construct scope, string id, ICfnLaunchConfigurationProps props)

Parameters

scope Construct
  • scope in which this resource is defined.
id string
  • scoped id of the resource.
props ICfnLaunchConfigurationProps
  • resource properties.

Properties

AssociatePublicIpAddress

Specifies whether to assign a public IPv4 address to the group's instances.

public virtual object? AssociatePublicIpAddress { get; set; }

Property Value

object

Remarks

If the instance is launched into a default subnet, the default is to assign a public IPv4 address, unless you disabled the option to assign a public IPv4 address on the subnet. If the instance is launched into a nondefault subnet, the default is not to assign a public IPv4 address, unless you enabled the option to assign a public IPv4 address on the subnet.

If you specify true , each instance in the Auto Scaling group receives a unique public IPv4 address. For more information, see Launching Auto Scaling instances in a VPC in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide .

If you specify this property, you must specify at least one subnet for VPCZoneIdentifier when you create your group.

BlockDeviceMappings

The block device mapping entries that define the block devices to attach to the instances at launch.

public virtual object? BlockDeviceMappings { get; set; }

Property Value

object

Remarks

By default, the block devices specified in the block device mapping for the AMI are used. For more information, see Block device mappings in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances .

public static string CFN_RESOURCE_TYPE_NAME { get; }

Property Value

string

CfnProperties

protected override IDictionary<string, object> CfnProperties { get; }

Property Value

IDictionary<string, object>

EbsOptimized

Specifies whether the launch configuration is optimized for EBS I/O ( true ) or not ( false ).

public virtual object? EbsOptimized { get; set; }

Property Value

object

Remarks

The optimization provides dedicated throughput to Amazon EBS and an optimized configuration stack to provide optimal I/O performance. This optimization is not available with all instance types. Additional fees are incurred when you enable EBS optimization for an instance type that is not EBS-optimized by default. For more information, see Amazon EBS-optimized instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances .

The default value is false .

Property Value

string

Remarks

ImageId

The ID of the Amazon Machine Image (AMI) that was assigned during registration.

public virtual string ImageId { get; set; }

Remarks

For more information, see Finding a Linux AMI in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances .

If you specify InstanceId , an ImageId is not required.

Link: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-autoscaling-launchconfiguration.html#cfn-autoscaling-launchconfiguration-imageid

InstanceId

The ID of the Amazon EC2 instance to use to create the launch configuration.

public virtual string? InstanceId { get; set; }

When you use an instance to create a launch configuration, all properties are derived from the instance with the exception of BlockDeviceMapping and AssociatePublicIpAddress . You can override any properties from the instance by specifying them in the launch configuration.

Link: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-resource-autoscaling-launchconfiguration.html#cfn-autoscaling-launchconfiguration-instanceid

InstanceMonitoring

Controls whether instances in this group are launched with detailed ( true ) or basic ( false ) monitoring.

public virtual object? InstanceMonitoring { get; set; }

Property Value

object

Remarks

The default value is true (enabled).

When detailed monitoring is enabled, Amazon CloudWatch generates metrics every minute and your account is charged a fee. When you disable detailed monitoring, CloudWatch generates metrics every 5 minutes. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/latest/userguide/enable-as-instance-metrics.html">Configure Monitoring for Auto Scaling Instances</a> in the <em>Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide</em> .
