Launches the specified number of instances using an AMI for which you have
permissions.
You can specify a number of options, or leave the default options. The following
rules apply:
* [EC2-VPC] If you don't specify a subnet ID, we choose a default subnet from
your default VPC for you. If you don't have a default VPC, you must specify a
subnet ID in the request.
* [EC2-Classic] If don't specify an Availability Zone, we choose one for you.
* Some instance types must be launched into a VPC. If you do not have a default
VPC, or if you do not specify a subnet ID, the request fails. For more
information, see Instance types available only in a VPC.
* [EC2-VPC] All instances have a network interface with a primary private IPv4
address. If you don't specify this address, we choose one from the IPv4 range
of your subnet.
* Not all instance types support IPv6 addresses. For more information, see
Instance types.
* If you don't specify a security group ID, we use the default security group.
For more information, see Security groups.
* If any of the AMIs have a product code attached for which the user has not
subscribed, the request fails.
You can create a launch template, which is a resource that contains the
parameters to launch an instance. When you launch an instance using
RunInstances, you can specify the launch template instead of specifying the
launch parameters.
To ensure faster instance launches, break up large requests into smaller
batches. For example, create five separate launch requests for 100 instances
each instead of one launch request for 500 instances.
An instance is ready for you to use when it's in the running state. You can
check the state of your instance using DescribeInstances. You can tag instances
and EBS volumes during launch, after launch, or both. For more information, see
CreateTags and Tagging your Amazon EC2 resources.
Linux instances have access to the public key of the key pair at boot. You can
use this key to provide secure access to the instance. Amazon EC2 public images
use this feature to provide secure access without passwords. For more
information, see Key pairs.
For troubleshooting, see What to do if an instance immediately terminates, and
Troubleshooting connecting to your instance.
Note
We are retiring EC2-Classic. We recommend that you migrate from EC2-Classic to a
VPC. For more information, see Migrate from EC2-Classic to a VPC in the Amazon
EC2 User Guide.
REQUEST PARAMETERS
The following parameters are for this specific action. For more information
about required and optional parameters that are common to all actions, see
Common Query Parameters.
AdditionalInfo
Reserved.
Type: String
Required: No
BlockDeviceMapping.N
The block device mapping, which defines the EBS volumes and instance store
volumes to attach to the instance at launch. For more information, see Block
device mappings in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.
Type: Array of BlockDeviceMapping objects
Required: No
CapacityReservationSpecification
Information about the Capacity Reservation targeting option. If you do not
specify this parameter, the instance's Capacity Reservation preference defaults
to open, which enables it to run in any open Capacity Reservation that has
matching attributes (instance type, platform, Availability Zone).
Type: CapacityReservationSpecification object
Required: No
ClientToken
Unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure the idempotency of the
request. If you do not specify a client token, a randomly generated token is
used for the request to ensure idempotency.
For more information, see Ensuring Idempotency.
Constraints: Maximum 64 ASCII characters
Type: String
Required: No
CpuOptions
The CPU options for the instance. For more information, see Optimize CPU options
in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.
Type: CpuOptionsRequest object
Required: No
CreditSpecification
The credit option for CPU usage of the burstable performance instance. Valid
values are standard and unlimited. To change this attribute after launch, use
ModifyInstanceCreditSpecification. For more information, see Burstable
performance instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.
Default: standard (T2 instances) or unlimited (T3/T3a/T4g instances)
For T3 instances with host tenancy, only standard is supported.
Type: CreditSpecificationRequest object
Required: No
DisableApiStop
Indicates whether an instance is enabled for stop protection. For more
information, see Stop protection.
Type: Boolean
Required: No
DisableApiTermination
If you set this parameter to true, you can't terminate the instance using the
Amazon EC2 console, CLI, or API; otherwise, you can. To change this attribute
after launch, use ModifyInstanceAttribute. Alternatively, if you set
InstanceInitiatedShutdownBehavior to terminate, you can terminate the instance
by running the shutdown command from the instance.
Default: false
Type: Boolean
Required: No
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.
Type: Boolean
Required: No
EbsOptimized
Indicates whether the instance is optimized for Amazon EBS I/O. This
optimization provides dedicated throughput to Amazon EBS and an optimized
configuration stack to provide optimal Amazon EBS I/O performance. This
