ARGUMENTS

LaunchConfigurationName
User-supplied launch configuration identifier which will uniquely
identify the configuration. You can also set this value using
"--launch-config". Required.

SPECIFIC OPTIONS

--block-device-mapping "key1=value1,key2=value2..."
List of block device mapping specifications. Each block device
mapping
has two items: a device, and either a virtual device or an EBS
snapshot
configuration.
Examples:
'/dev/sdb=snap-7eb96d16'
'/dev/sdc=snap-7eb96d16:80'
'/dev/sdd=:120'
'/dev/sde=virtual-device'.

--group VALUE1,VALUE2,VALUE3...
Security groups with which to associate the Amazon EC2 instances.
Note
that Amazon VPC security groups and Amazon EC2 security groups are
mutually exclusive and can't be used together. Either all group
names or
all group ids are acceptable, but not both.

-i, --image-id VALUE
Unique ID of the Amazon Machine Image (AMI) assigned during
registration.
Required.

--iam-instance-profile VALUE
IAM Instance Identity Profile to use as the Runas User for the
instances.

--kernel VALUE
ID of the kernel associated with the Amazon EC2 AMI.

--key VALUE
Name of the Amazon EC2 key pair.

--monitoring-enabled, --monitoring-disabled
Flag that enables/disables instance monitoring. The default value
is
'true'.

--ramdisk VALUE
ID of the RAM disk associated with the Amazon EC2 AMI.

--spot-price VALUE
The maximum hourly price for any Spot Instance launched.

-t, --instance-type VALUE
Amazon EC2 instance type to launch. Required.

--user-data VALUE
The data to make available to the instance. The data must be
specified
as a string on the command line. To upload data from a file see
the
'--user-data-file' option.

--user-data-file VALUE
The name of the file containing user data for the instance.

GENERAL OPTIONS

--aws-credential-file VALUE
Location of the file with your AWS credentials. This value can be
set by
using the environment variable 'AWS_CREDENTIAL_FILE'.

-C, --ec2-cert-file-path VALUE
Path to the file holding the X.509 certificate. This value can be
set by
using the environment variable 'EC2_CERT'.

--connection-timeout VALUE
Connection timeout (in seconds). The default value is '30'.

--delimiter VALUE
The delimiter to use when displaying delimited (long) results.

-H, --headers
For displaying tabular or delimited results, it includes the column
headers. For displaying XML results, it returns the HTTP headers
from the
service request, if applicable. This is off by default.

-I, --access-key-id VALUE
The AWS access ID to use.

-K, --ec2-private-key-file-path VALUE
Path to the file holding the X.509 private key. This value can be
set by
using the environment variable 'EC2_PRIVATE_KEY'.

--region VALUE
Amazon EC2 region to use. This value can be set by using the
environment
variable 'EC2_REGION'.

default
value is 'false'.

--show-table, --show-long, --show-xml, --quiet
The way in which the results are displayed: tabular, delimited
(long),
XML or no output (quiet). Tabular shows a subset of the data in
fixed
column-width form, while long shows all of the returned values
delimited
by a character, XML is the raw return from the service and quiet
suppresses all standard output. The default is tabular, or
'show-table'.

-U, --url VALUE
This option will override the URL for the service call with VALUE.
This
value can be set by using the environment variable
'AWS_AUTO_SCALING_URL'.
