An array of search criteria that targets instances using a Key,Value combination that you specify.
One or more targets must be specified for maintenance window Run Command-type tasks. Depending on the task, targets are optional for other maintenance window task types (Automation, AWS Lambda, and AWS Step Functions). For more information about running tasks that do not specify targets, see Registering maintenance window tasks without targets in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide.
Supported formats include the following.
-
Key=InstanceIds,Values=instance-id-1,instance-id-2,instance-id-3
-
Key=tag:my-tag-key,Values=my-tag-value-1,my-tag-value-2
-
Key=tag-key,Values=my-tag-key-1,my-tag-key-2
-
Run Command and Maintenance window targets only: Key=resource-groups:Name,Values=resource-group-name
-
Maintenance window targets only: Key=resource-groups:ResourceTypeFilters,Values=resource-type-1,resource-type-2
-
Automation targets only: Key=ResourceGroup;Values=resource-group-name
For example:
-
Key=InstanceIds,Values=i-02573cafcfEXAMPLE,i-0471e04240EXAMPLE,i-07782c72faEXAMPLE
-
Key=tag:CostCenter,Values=CostCenter1,CostCenter2,CostCenter3
-
Key=tag-key,Values=Name,Instance-Type,CostCenter
-
Run Command and Maintenance window targets only: Key=resource-groups:Name,Values=ProductionResourceGroup
This example demonstrates how to target all resources in the resource group ProductionResourceGroup in your maintenance window.
-
Maintenance window targets only: Key=resource-groups:ResourceTypeFilters,Values=AWS::EC2::INSTANCE,AWS::EC2::VPC
This example demonstrates how to target only EC2 instances and VPCs in your maintenance window.
-
Automation targets only: Key=ResourceGroup,Values=MyResourceGroup
-
State Manager association targets only: Key=InstanceIds,Values=*
This example demonstrates how to target all managed instances in the AWS Region where the association was created.
For more information about how to send commands that target instances using Key,Value parameters, see Targeting multiple instances in the AWS Systems Manager User Guide.
