[REQUIRED]
The ID for the health check for which you want detailed information. When you created the health check, CreateHealthCheck returned the ID in the response, in the HealthCheckId element.
A sequential counter that Amazon Route 53 sets to 1 when you create a health check and increments by 1 each time you update settings for the health check.
We recommend that you use GetHealthCheck or ListHealthChecks to get the current value of HealthCheckVersion for the health check that you want to update, and that you include that value in your UpdateHealthCheck request. This prevents Route 53 from overwriting an intervening update:
UpdateHealthCheck request matches the value of HealthCheckVersion in the health check, Route 53 updates the health check with the new settings.HealthCheckVersion in the health check is greater, the health check was changed after you got the version number. Route 53 does not update the health check, and it returns a HealthCheckVersionMismatch error.The IPv4 or IPv6 IP address for the endpoint that you want Amazon Route 53 to perform health checks on. If you don't specify a value for IPAddress , Route 53 sends a DNS request to resolve the domain name that you specify in FullyQualifiedDomainName at the interval that you specify in RequestInterval . Using an IP address that is returned by DNS, Route 53 then checks the health of the endpoint.
Use one of the following formats for the value of IPAddress :
192.0.2.44 .2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:abcd:0001:2345 . You can also shorten IPv6 addresses as described in RFC 5952, for example, 2001:db8:85a3::abcd:1:2345 .If the endpoint is an EC2 instance, we recommend that you create an Elastic IP address, associate it with your EC2 instance, and specify the Elastic IP address for IPAddress . This ensures that the IP address of your instance never changes. For more information, see the applicable documentation:
Note
If a health check already has a value for IPAddress , you can change the value. However, you can't update an existing health check to add or remove the value of IPAddress .
For more information, see FullyQualifiedDomainName.
Constraints: Route 53 can't check the health of endpoints for which the IP address is in local, private, non-routable, or multicast ranges. For more information about IP addresses for which you can't create health checks, see the following documents:
The port on the endpoint that you want Amazon Route 53 to perform health checks on.
Note
Don't specify a value for Port when you specify a value for Type of CLOUDWATCH_METRIC or CALCULATED .
The path that you want Amazon Route 53 to request when performing health checks. The path can be any value for which your endpoint will return an HTTP status code of 2xx or 3xx when the endpoint is healthy, for example the file /docs/route53-health-check.html. You can also include query string parameters, for example, /welcome.html?language=jp&login=y .
Specify this value only if you want to change it.
Amazon Route 53 behavior depends on whether you specify a value for IPAddress .
Note
If a health check already has a value forIPAddress, you can change the value. However, you can't update an existing health check to add or remove the value ofIPAddress.
If you specify a value for IPAddress :
Route 53 sends health check requests to the specified IPv4 or IPv6 address and passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName in the Host header for all health checks except TCP health checks. This is typically the fully qualified DNS name of the endpoint on which you want Route 53 to perform health checks.
When Route 53 checks the health of an endpoint, here is how it constructs the Host header:
80 for Port and HTTP or HTTP_STR_MATCH for Type , Route 53 passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName to the endpoint in the Host header.443 for Port and HTTPS or HTTPS_STR_MATCH for Type , Route 53 passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName to the endpoint in the Host header.Port and any value except TCP for Type , Route 53 passes FullyQualifiedDomainName : Port to the endpoint in the Host header.If you don't specify a value for FullyQualifiedDomainName , Route 53 substitutes the value of IPAddress in the Host header in each of the above cases.
If you don't specify a value forIPAddress:
If you don't specify a value for IPAddress , Route 53 sends a DNS request to the domain that you specify in FullyQualifiedDomainName at the interval you specify in RequestInterval . Using an IPv4 address that is returned by DNS, Route 53 then checks the health of the endpoint.
Note
If you don't specify a value for IPAddress , Route 53 uses only IPv4 to send health checks to the endpoint. If there's no resource record set with a type of A for the name that you specify for FullyQualifiedDomainName , the health check fails with a "DNS resolution failed" error.
If you want to check the health of weighted, latency, or failover resource record sets and you choose to specify the endpoint only by FullyQualifiedDomainName , we recommend that you create a separate health check for each endpoint. For example, create a health check for each HTTP server that is serving content for www.example.com. For the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName , specify the domain name of the server (such as us-east-2-www.example.com ), not the name of the resource record sets (www.example.com).
Warning
In this configuration, if the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName matches the name of the resource record sets and you then associate the health check with those resource record sets, health check results will be unpredictable.
In addition, if the value of Type is HTTP , HTTPS , HTTP_STR_MATCH , or HTTPS_STR_MATCH , Route 53 passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName in the Host header, as it does when you specify a value for IPAddress . If the value of Type is TCP , Route 53 doesn't pass a Host header.
Type is HTTP_STR_MATCH or HTTPS_STR_MATCH , the string that you want Amazon Route 53 to search for in the response body from the specified resource. If the string appears in the response body, Route 53 considers the resource healthy. (You can't change the value of Type when you update a health check.)The number of consecutive health checks that an endpoint must pass or fail for Amazon Route 53 to change the current status of the endpoint from unhealthy to healthy or vice versa. For more information, see How Amazon Route 53 Determines Whether an Endpoint Is Healthy in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide .
If you don't specify a value for FailureThreshold , the default value is three health checks.
Stops Route 53 from performing health checks. When you disable a health check, here's what happens:
After you disable a health check, Route 53 considers the status of the health check to always be healthy. If you configured DNS failover, Route 53 continues to route traffic to the corresponding resources. If you want to stop routing traffic to a resource, change the value of Inverted.
Charges for a health check still apply when the health check is disabled. For more information, see Amazon Route 53 Pricing.
The number of child health checks that are associated with a CALCULATED health that Amazon Route 53 must consider healthy for the CALCULATED health check to be considered healthy. To specify the child health checks that you want to associate with a CALCULATED health check, use the ChildHealthChecks and ChildHealthCheck elements.
Note the following:
0 , Route 53 always considers this health check to be healthy.A complex type that contains one ChildHealthCheck element for each health check that you want to associate with a CALCULATED health check.
Specify whether you want Amazon Route 53 to send the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName to the endpoint in the client_hello message during TLS negotiation. This allows the endpoint to respond to HTTPS health check requests with the applicable SSL/TLS certificate.
Some endpoints require that HTTPS requests include the host name in the client_hello message. If you don't enable SNI, the status of the health check will be SSL alert handshake_failure . A health check can also have that status for other reasons. If SNI is enabled and you're still getting the error, check the SSL/TLS configuration on your endpoint and confirm that your certificate is valid.
The SSL/TLS certificate on your endpoint includes a domain name in the Common Name field and possibly several more in the Subject Alternative Names field. One of the domain names in the certificate should match the value that you specify for FullyQualifiedDomainName . If the endpoint responds to the client_hello message with a certificate that does not include the domain name that you specified in FullyQualifiedDomainName , a health checker will retry the handshake. In the second attempt, the health checker will omit FullyQualifiedDomainName from the client_hello message.
A complex type that contains one Region element for each region that you want Amazon Route 53 health checkers to check the specified endpoint from.
A complex type that identifies the CloudWatch alarm that you want Amazon Route 53 health checkers to use to determine whether the specified health check is healthy.
For the CloudWatch alarm that you want Route 53 health checkers to use to determine whether this health check is healthy, the region that the alarm was created in.
For the current list of CloudWatch regions, see Amazon CloudWatch endpoints and quotas in the Amazon Web Services General Reference .
The name of the CloudWatch alarm that you want Amazon Route 53 health checkers to use to determine whether this health check is healthy.
Note
Route 53 supports CloudWatch alarms with the following features:
When CloudWatch has insufficient data about the metric to determine the alarm state, the status that you want Amazon Route 53 to assign to the health check:
Healthy : Route 53 considers the health check to be healthy.Unhealthy : Route 53 considers the health check to be unhealthy.LastKnownStatus : By default, Route 53 uses the status of the health check from the last time CloudWatch had sufficient data to determine the alarm state. For new health checks that have no last known status, the status for the health check is healthy.A complex type that contains one ResettableElementName element for each element that you want to reset to the default value. Valid values for ResettableElementName include the following:
ChildHealthChecks : Amazon Route 53 resets ChildHealthChecks to null.FullyQualifiedDomainName : Route 53 resets FullyQualifiedDomainName. to null.Regions : Route 53 resets the Regions list to the default set of regions.ResourcePath : Route 53 resets ResourcePath to null.dict

HealthCheckConfig (dict) --
A complex type that contains detailed information about one health check.
IPAddress (string) --
The IPv4 or IPv6 IP address of the endpoint that you want Amazon Route 53 to perform health checks on. If you don't specify a value for IPAddress , Route 53 sends a DNS request to resolve the domain name that you specify in FullyQualifiedDomainName at the interval that you specify in RequestInterval . Using an IP address returned by DNS, Route 53 then checks the health of the endpoint.
Use one of the following formats for the value of IPAddress :
192.0.2.44 .2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:abcd:0001:2345 . You can also shorten IPv6 addresses as described in RFC 5952, for example, 2001:db8:85a3::abcd:1:2345 .If the endpoint is an EC2 instance, we recommend that you create an Elastic IP address, associate it with your EC2 instance, and specify the Elastic IP address for IPAddress . This ensures that the IP address of your instance will never change.
For more information, see FullyQualifiedDomainName.
Constraints: Route 53 can't check the health of endpoints for which the IP address is in local, private, non-routable, or multicast ranges. For more information about IP addresses for which you can't create health checks, see the following documents:
When the value of Type is CALCULATED or CLOUDWATCH_METRIC , omit IPAddress .
Port (integer) --
The port on the endpoint that you want Amazon Route 53 to perform health checks on.
Note
Don't specify a value for Port when you specify a value for Type of CLOUDWATCH_METRIC or CALCULATED .
Type (string) --
The type of health check that you want to create, which indicates how Amazon Route 53 determines whether an endpoint is healthy.
Warning
You can't change the value of Type after you create a health check.
You can create the following types of health checks:
Warning
If you specify HTTPS for the value of Type , the endpoint must support TLS v1.0 or later.
SearchString .HTTPS request and searches the first 5,120 bytes of the response body for the string that you specify in SearchString .OK , the health check is considered healthy. If the state is ALARM , the health check is considered unhealthy. If CloudWatch doesn't have sufficient data to determine whether the state is OK or ALARM , the health check status depends on the setting for InsufficientDataHealthStatus : Healthy , Unhealthy , or LastKnownStatus .HealthThreshold .ON , the health check is considered healthy. If the state is OFF , the health check is considered unhealthy.For more information, see How Route 53 Determines Whether an Endpoint Is Healthy in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide .
ResourcePath (string) --
The path, if any, that you want Amazon Route 53 to request when performing health checks. The path can be any value for which your endpoint will return an HTTP status code of 2xx or 3xx when the endpoint is healthy, for example, the file /docs/route53-health-check.html. You can also include query string parameters, for example, /welcome.html?language=jp&login=y .
FullyQualifiedDomainName (string) --
Amazon Route 53 behavior depends on whether you specify a value for IPAddress .
If you specify a value for
IPAddress:
Amazon Route 53 sends health check requests to the specified IPv4 or IPv6 address and passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName in the Host header for all health checks except TCP health checks. This is typically the fully qualified DNS name of the endpoint on which you want Route 53 to perform health checks.
When Route 53 checks the health of an endpoint, here is how it constructs the Host header:
80 for Port and HTTP or HTTP_STR_MATCH for Type , Route 53 passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName to the endpoint in the Host header.443 for Port and HTTPS or HTTPS_STR_MATCH for Type , Route 53 passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName to the endpoint in the Host header.Port and any value except TCP for Type , Route 53 passes FullyQualifiedDomainName:Port to the endpoint in the Host header.If you don't specify a value for FullyQualifiedDomainName , Route 53 substitutes the value of IPAddress in the Host header in each of the preceding cases.
If you don't specify a value for
IPAddress:
Route 53 sends a DNS request to the domain that you specify for FullyQualifiedDomainName at the interval that you specify for RequestInterval . Using an IPv4 address that DNS returns, Route 53 then checks the health of the endpoint.
Note
If you don't specify a value for IPAddress , Route 53 uses only IPv4 to send health checks to the endpoint. If there's no resource record set with a type of A for the name that you specify for FullyQualifiedDomainName , the health check fails with a "DNS resolution failed" error.
If you want to check the health of weighted, latency, or failover resource record sets and you choose to specify the endpoint only by FullyQualifiedDomainName , we recommend that you create a separate health check for each endpoint. For example, create a health check for each HTTP server that is serving content for www.example.com. For the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName , specify the domain name of the server (such as us-east-2-www.example.com), not the name of the resource record sets (www.example.com).
Warning
In this configuration, if you create a health check for which the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName matches the name of the resource record sets and you then associate the health check with those resource record sets, health check results will be unpredictable.
In addition, if the value that you specify for Type is HTTP , HTTPS , HTTP_STR_MATCH , or HTTPS_STR_MATCH , Route 53 passes the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName in the Host header, as it does when you specify a value for IPAddress . If the value of Type is TCP , Route 53 doesn't pass a Host header.
SearchString (string) --
If the value of Type is HTTP_STR_MATCH or HTTPS_STR_MATCH , the string that you want Amazon Route 53 to search for in the response body from the specified resource. If the string appears in the response body, Route 53 considers the resource healthy.
Route 53 considers case when searching for SearchString in the response body.
RequestInterval (integer) --
The number of seconds between the time that Amazon Route 53 gets a response from your endpoint and the time that it sends the next health check request. Each Route 53 health checker makes requests at this interval.
Warning
You can't change the value of RequestInterval after you create a health check.
If you don't specify a value for RequestInterval , the default value is 30 seconds.
FailureThreshold (integer) --
The number of consecutive health checks that an endpoint must pass or fail for Amazon Route 53 to change the current status of the endpoint from unhealthy to healthy or vice versa. For more information, see How Amazon Route 53 Determines Whether an Endpoint Is Healthy in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide .
If you don't specify a value for FailureThreshold , the default value is three health checks.
MeasureLatency (boolean) --
Specify whether you want Amazon Route 53 to measure the latency between health checkers in multiple Amazon Web Services regions and your endpoint, and to display CloudWatch latency graphs on the Health Checks page in the Route 53 console.
Warning
You can't change the value of MeasureLatency after you create a health check.
Inverted (boolean) --
Specify whether you want Amazon Route 53 to invert the status of a health check, for example, to consider a health check unhealthy when it otherwise would be considered healthy.
Disabled (boolean) --
Stops Route 53 from performing health checks. When you disable a health check, here's what happens:
After you disable a health check, Route 53 considers the status of the health check to always be healthy. If you configured DNS failover, Route 53 continues to route traffic to the corresponding resources. If you want to stop routing traffic to a resource, change the value of Inverted.
Charges for a health check still apply when the health check is disabled. For more information, see Amazon Route 53 Pricing.
HealthThreshold (integer) --
The number of child health checks that are associated with a CALCULATED health check that Amazon Route 53 must consider healthy for the CALCULATED health check to be considered healthy. To specify the child health checks that you want to associate with a CALCULATED health check, use the ChildHealthChecks element.
Note the following:
0 , Route 53 always considers this health check to be healthy.ChildHealthChecks (list) --
(CALCULATED Health Checks Only) A complex type that contains one ChildHealthCheck element for each health check that you want to associate with a CALCULATED health check.
EnableSNI (boolean) --
Specify whether you want Amazon Route 53 to send the value of FullyQualifiedDomainName to the endpoint in the client_hello message during TLS negotiation. This allows the endpoint to respond to HTTPS health check requests with the applicable SSL/TLS certificate.
Some endpoints require that HTTPS requests include the host name in the client_hello message. If you don't enable SNI, the status of the health check will be SSL alert handshake_failure . A health check can also have that status for other reasons. If SNI is enabled and you're still getting the error, check the SSL/TLS configuration on your endpoint and confirm that your certificate is valid.
The SSL/TLS certificate on your endpoint includes a domain name in the Common Name field and possibly several more in the Subject Alternative Names field. One of the domain names in the certificate should match the value that you specify for FullyQualifiedDomainName . If the endpoint responds to the client_hello message with a certificate that does not include the domain name that you specified in FullyQualifiedDomainName , a health checker will retry the handshake. In the second attempt, the health checker will omit FullyQualifiedDomainName from the client_hello message.
Regions (list) --
A complex type that contains one Region element for each region from which you want Amazon Route 53 health checkers to check the specified endpoint.
If you don't specify any regions, Route 53 health checkers automatically performs checks from all of the regions that are listed under Valid Values .
If you update a health check to remove a region that has been performing health checks, Route 53 will briefly continue to perform checks from that region to ensure that some health checkers are always checking the endpoint (for example, if you replace three regions with four different regions).
AlarmIdentifier (dict) --
A complex type that identifies the CloudWatch alarm that you want Amazon Route 53 health checkers to use to determine whether the specified health check is healthy.
Region (string) --
For the CloudWatch alarm that you want Route 53 health checkers to use to determine whether this health check is healthy, the region that the alarm was created in.
For the current list of CloudWatch regions, see Amazon CloudWatch endpoints and quotas in the Amazon Web Services General Reference .
