      Note
      Amazon Linux 2 (AL2) will reach end of support on 6/30/2025. See more details in the Amazon Linux 2 FAQs. For game servers that are hosted on AL2 and use Amazon GameLift server SDK 4.x, first update the game server build to server SDK 5.x, and then deploy to AL2023 instances. See Migrate to Amazon GameLift server SDK version 5.

    - TotalVcpuLimit (float) –
      
      The amount of vCPU units on a fleet instance to allocate for the container group (1 vCPU is equal to 1024 CPU units). All containers in the group share these resources. You can set a limit for each container definition in the group. If individual containers have limits, this total value must be equal to or greater than the sum of the limits for each container in the group.
    - GameServerContainerDefinition (dict) –
