scaling_policy

Gets an individual scaling_policy resource

Overview

Name	scaling_policy
Type	Resource
Description	scaling_policy
Id	awscc.autoscaling.scaling_policy

Fields

Name	Datatype	Description
metric_aggregation_type	string	The aggregation type for the CloudWatch metrics. The valid values are Minimum, Maximum, and Average. If the aggregation type is null, the value is treated as Average. Valid only if the policy type is StepScaling.
policy_name	string
policy_type	string	One of the following policy types: TargetTrackingScaling, StepScaling, SimpleScaling (default), PredictiveScaling
predictive_scaling_configuration	object	A predictive scaling policy. Includes support for predefined metrics only.
scaling_adjustment	integer	The amount by which to scale, based on the specified adjustment type. A positive value adds to the current capacity while a negative number removes from the current capacity. For exact capacity, you must specify a positive value. Required if the policy type is SimpleScaling. (Not used with any other policy type.)
cooldown	string	The duration of the policy's cooldown period, in seconds. When a cooldown period is specified here, it overrides the default cooldown period defined for the Auto Scaling group.
step_adjustments	array	A set of adjustments that enable you to scale based on the size of the alarm breach. Required if the policy type is StepScaling. (Not used with any other policy type.)
auto_scaling_group_name	string	The name of the Auto Scaling group.
min_adjustment_magnitude	integer	The minimum value to scale by when the adjustment type is PercentChangeInCapacity. For example, suppose that you create a step scaling policy to scale out an Auto Scaling group by 25 percent and you specify a MinAdjustmentMagnitude of 2. If the group has 4 instances and the scaling policy is performed, 25 percent of 4 is 1. However, because you specified a MinAdjustmentMagnitude of 2, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling scales out the group by 2 instances.
target_tracking_configuration	object	A target tracking scaling policy. Includes support for predefined or customized metrics.
estimated_instance_warmup	integer	The estimated time, in seconds, until a newly launched instance can contribute to the CloudWatch metrics. If not provided, the default is to use the value from the default cooldown period for the Auto Scaling group. Valid only if the policy type is TargetTrackingScaling or StepScaling.
adjustment_type	string	Specifies how the scaling adjustment is interpreted. The valid values are ChangeInCapacity, ExactCapacity, and PercentChangeInCapacity.
arn	string	The ARN of the AutoScaling scaling policy
region	string	AWS region.
