ec2_describe_instance_credit_specifications: Describes the credit option for CPU usage of one or more of your T2 or T3 instances

Description

Describes the credit option for CPU usage of one or more of your T2 or T3 instances. The credit options are standard and unlimited.

Usage

ec2_describe_instance_credit_specifications(DryRun, Filters,
  InstanceIds, MaxResults, NextToken)

Arguments

DryRun

Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation.

Filters

One or more filters.

instance-id - The ID of the instance.

InstanceIds

One or more instance IDs.

Default: Describes all your instances.

Constraints: Maximum 1000 explicitly specified instance IDs.

MaxResults

The maximum number of results to return in a single call. To retrieve the remaining results, make another call with the returned NextToken value. This value can be between 5 and 1000. You cannot specify this parameter and the instance IDs parameter in the same call.

NextToken

The token to retrieve the next page of results.

Request syntax

svc$describe_instance_credit_specifications(
  DryRun = TRUE|FALSE,
  Filters = list(
    list(
      Name = "string",
      Values = list(
        "string"
      )
    )
  ),
  InstanceIds = list(
    "string"
  ),
  MaxResults = 123,
  NextToken = "string"
)

Details

If you do not specify an instance ID, Amazon EC2 returns T2 and T3 instances with the unlimited credit option, as well as instances that were previously configured as T2 or T3 with the unlimited credit option. For example, if you resize a T2 instance, while it is configured as unlimited, to an M4 instance, Amazon EC2 returns the M4 instance.

If you specify one or more instance IDs, Amazon EC2 returns the credit option (standard or unlimited) of those instances. If you specify an instance ID that is not valid, such as an instance that is not a T2 or T3 instance, an error is returned.

Recently terminated instances might appear in the returned results. This interval is usually less than one hour.

If an Availability Zone is experiencing a service disruption and you specify instance IDs in the affected zone, or do not specify any instance IDs at all, the call fails. If you specify only instance IDs in an unaffected zone, the call works normally.
