instances
A collection of Instance resources.A Instance Collection will include all resources by default, and extreme caution should be taken when performing actions on all resources.
all
()¶Creates an iterable of all Instance resources in the collection.

instance_iterator = placement_group.instances.all()
ec2.Instance
)Adds or overwrites only the specified tags for the specified Amazon EC2 resource or resources. When you specify an existing tag key, the value is overwritten with the new value. Each resource can have a maximum of 50 tags. Each tag consists of a key and optional value. Tag keys must be unique per resource.
For more information about tags, see Tag your Amazon EC2 resources in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide . For more information about creating IAM policies that control users' access to resources based on tags, see Supported resource-level permissions for Amazon EC2 API actions in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .

You cannot specify this parameter and the instance IDs parameter in the same request.
list(ec2.Instance
)
A list of Instance resources
limit
(**kwargs)¶Creates an iterable up to a specified amount of Instance resources in the collection.

Request Syntax
instance_iterator = placement_group.instances.limit(
count=123
)
ec2.Instance
)monitor
(**kwargs)¶Enables detailed monitoring for a running instance. Otherwise, basic monitoring is enabled. For more information, see Monitor your instances using CloudWatch in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
To disable detailed monitoring, see UnmonitorInstances.

Response Structure
The monitoring information.
Describes the monitoring of an instance.
The ID of the instance.
The monitoring for the instance.
Indicates whether detailed monitoring is enabled. Otherwise, basic monitoring is enabled.
page_size
(**kwargs)¶Creates an iterable of all Instance resources in the collection, but limits the number of items returned by each service call by the specified amount.
See also: AWS API Documentation
Request Syntax
instance_iterator = placement_group.instances.page_size(
count=123
)
ec2.Instance
)reboot
(**kwargs)¶Requests a reboot of the specified instances. This operation is asynchronous; it only queues a request to reboot the specified instances. The operation succeeds if the instances are valid and belong to you. Requests to reboot terminated instances are ignored.
If an instance does not cleanly shut down within a few minutes, Amazon EC2 performs a hard reboot.
For more information about troubleshooting, see Troubleshoot an unreachable instance in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
See also: AWS API Documentation
Request Syntax
response = placement_group.instances.reboot(
DryRun=True|False
)
DryRunOperation
. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation
.start
(**kwargs)¶Starts an Amazon EBS-backed instance that you've previously stopped.
Instances that use Amazon EBS volumes as their root devices can be quickly stopped and started. When an instance is stopped, the compute resources are released and you are not billed for instance usage. However, your root partition Amazon EBS volume remains and continues to persist your data, and you are charged for Amazon EBS volume usage. You can restart your instance at any time. Every time you start your instance, Amazon EC2 charges a one-minute minimum for instance usage, and thereafter charges per second for instance usage.
Before stopping an instance, make sure it is in a state from which it can be restarted. Stopping an instance does not preserve data stored in RAM.
Performing this operation on an instance that uses an instance store as its root device returns an error.
If you attempt to start a T3 instance with host
tenancy and the unlimted
CPU credit option, the request fails. The unlimited
CPU credit option is not supported on Dedicated Hosts. Before you start the instance, either change its CPU credit option to standard
, or change its tenancy to default
or dedicated
.
For more information, see Stop and start your instance in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .

stop
(**kwargs)¶Stops an Amazon EBS-backed instance. For more information, see Stop and start your instance in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
You can use the Stop action to hibernate an instance if the instance is enabled for hibernation and it meets the hibernation prerequisites. For more information, see Hibernate your instance in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
We don't charge usage for a stopped instance, or data transfer fees; however, your root partition Amazon EBS volume remains and continues to persist your data, and you are charged for Amazon EBS volume usage. Every time you start your instance, Amazon EC2 charges a one-minute minimum for instance usage, and thereafter charges per second for instance usage.
You can't stop or hibernate instance store-backed instances. You can't use the Stop action to hibernate Spot Instances, but you can specify that Amazon EC2 should hibernate Spot Instances when they are interrupted. For more information, see Hibernating interrupted Spot Instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
When you stop or hibernate an instance, we shut it down. You can restart your instance at any time. Before stopping or hibernating an instance, make sure it is in a state from which it can be restarted. Stopping an instance does not preserve data stored in RAM, but hibernating an instance does preserve data stored in RAM. If an instance cannot hibernate successfully, a normal shutdown occurs.
Stopping and hibernating an instance is different to rebooting or terminating it. For example, when you stop or hibernate an instance, the root device and any other devices attached to the instance persist. When you terminate an instance, the root device and any other devices attached during the instance launch are automatically deleted. For more information about the differences between rebooting, stopping, hibernating, and terminating instances, see Instance lifecycle in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
When you stop an instance, we attempt to shut it down forcibly after a short while. If your instance appears stuck in the stopping state after a period of time, there may be an issue with the underlying host computer. For more information, see Troubleshoot stopping your instance in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .

terminate
(**kwargs)¶Shuts down the specified instances. This operation is idempotent; if you terminate an instance more than once, each call succeeds.
If you specify multiple instances and the request fails (for example, because of a single incorrect instance ID), none of the instances are terminated.
If you terminate multiple instances across multiple Availability Zones, and one or more of the specified instances are enabled for termination protection, the request fails with the following results:
For example, say you have the following instances:
us-east-1a
; Not protectedus-east-1a
; Not protectedus-east-1b
; Protectedus-east-1b
; not protectedIf you attempt to terminate all of these instances in the same request, the request reports failure with the following results:
us-east-1a
are enabled for termination protection.us-east-1b
(Instance C) is enabled for termination protection.Terminated instances remain visible after termination (for approximately one hour).
By default, Amazon EC2 deletes all EBS volumes that were attached when the instance launched. Volumes attached after instance launch continue running.
You can stop, start, and terminate EBS-backed instances. You can only terminate instance store-backed instances. What happens to an instance differs if you stop it or terminate it. For example, when you stop an instance, the root device and any other devices attached to the instance persist. When you terminate an instance, any attached EBS volumes with the DeleteOnTermination
block device mapping parameter set to true
are automatically deleted. For more information about the differences between stopping and terminating instances, see Instance lifecycle in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
