EC2 / Client / create_launch_template
create_launch_template#
- EC2.Client.create_launch_template(**kwargs)#
Creates a launch template.
A launch template contains the parameters to launch an instance. When you launch an instance using RunInstances, you can specify a launch template instead of providing the launch parameters in the request. For more information, see Launch an instance from a launch template in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.
If you want to clone an existing launch template as the basis for creating a new launch template, you can use the Amazon EC2 console. The API, SDKs, and CLI do not support cloning a template. For more information, see Create a launch template from an existing launch template in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.

SpotMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPriceorMaxSpotPriceAsPercentageOfOptimalOnDemandPricecan be specified. If you don’t specify either, Amazon EC2 will automatically apply optimal price protection to consistently select from a wide range of instance types. To indicate no price protection threshold for Spot Instances, meaning you want to consider all instance types that match your attributes, include one of these parameters and specify a high value, such as999999.Default:
100OnDemandMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPrice (integer) –
[Price protection] The price protection threshold for On-Demand Instances, as a percentage higher than an identified On-Demand price. The identified On-Demand price is the price of the lowest priced current generation C, M, or R instance type with your specified attributes. When Amazon EC2 selects instance types with your attributes, it will exclude instance types whose price exceeds your specified threshold.
The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 interprets as a percentage.
To indicate no price protection threshold, specify a high value, such as
999999.This parameter is not supported for GetSpotPlacementScores and GetInstanceTypesFromInstanceRequirements.
