Instance / Waiter / wait_until_exists

wait_until_exists#

EC2.Instance.wait_until_exists(**kwargs)#

Waits until this Instance is exists. This method calls EC2.Waiter.instance_exists.wait() which polls EC2.Client.describe_instances() every 5 seconds until a successful state is reached. An error is raised after 40 failed checks.

  • DryRun (boolean) – 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.

  • MaxResults (integer) –

    The maximum number of items to return for this request. To get the next page of items, make another request with the token returned in the output. For more information, see Pagination.

    You cannot specify this parameter and the instance IDs parameter in the same request.
