Auto
The attributes for the instance types for a mixed instances policy. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling uses your specified requirements to identify instance types. Then, it uses your On-Demand and Spot allocation strategies to launch instances from these instance types. When you specify multiple attributes, you get instance types that satisfy all of the specified attributes. If you specify multiple values for an attribute, you get instance types that satisfy any of the specified values. To limit the list of instance types from which Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling can identify matching instance types, you can use one of the following parameters, but not both in the same request:
`AllowedInstanceTypes`- The instance types to include in the list. All other instance types are ignored, even if they match your specified attributes.`ExcludedInstanceTypes`- The instance types to exclude from the list, even if they match your specified attributes. You must specify`VCpuCount`and`MemoryMiB`. All other attributes are optional. Any unspecified optional attribute is set to its default. For an example template, see Configure Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling resources. For more information, see Creating an Auto Scaling group using attribute-based instance type selection in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide. For help determining which instance types match your attributes before you apply them to your Auto Scaling group, see Preview instance types with specified attributes in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.`InstanceRequirements`is a property of the`LaunchTemplateOverrides`property of the AWS::AutoScaling::AutoScalingGroup LaunchTemplate property type.

Properties
The minimum and maximum number of accelerators (GPUs, FPGAs, or AWS Inferentia chips) for an instance type. To exclude accelerator-enabled instance types, set `Max` to `0`. Default: No minimum or maximum limits
Indicates whether instance types must have accelerators by specific manufacturers.
Lists the accelerators that must be on an instance type.
The minimum and maximum total memory size for the accelerators on an instance type, in MiB. Default: No minimum or maximum limits
Lists the accelerator types that must be on an instance type.
The instance types to apply your specified attributes against. All other instance types are ignored, even if they match your specified attributes. You can use strings with one or more wild cards, represented by an asterisk (`*`), to allow an instance type, size, or generation. The following are examples: `m5.8xlarge`, `c5*.*`, `m5a.*`, `r*`, `*3*`. For example, if you specify `c5*`, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling will allow the entire C5 instance family, which includes all C5a and C5n instance types. If you specify `m5a.*`, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling will allow all the M5a instance types, but not the M5n instance types. If you specify `AllowedInstanceTypes`, you can't specify `ExcludedInstanceTypes`. Default: All instance types
The minimum and maximum baseline bandwidth performance for an instance type, in Mbps. For more information, see Amazon EBS–optimized instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances. Default: No minimum or maximum limits
Indicates whether burstable performance instance types are included, excluded, or required. For more information, see Burstable performance instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances. Default: `excluded`
Lists which specific CPU manufacturers to include.
The instance types to exclude. You can use strings with one or more wild cards, represented by an asterisk (`*`), to exclude an instance family, type, size, or generation. The following are examples: `m5.8xlarge`, `c5*.*`, `m5a.*`, `r*`, `*3*`. For example, if you specify `c5*`, you are excluding the entire C5 instance family, which includes all C5a and C5n instance types. If you specify `m5a.*`, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling will exclude all the M5a instance types, but not the M5n instance types. If you specify `ExcludedInstanceTypes`, you can't specify `AllowedInstanceTypes`. Default: No excluded instance types
Indicates whether current or previous generation instance types are included.
Indicates whether instance types with instance store volumes are included, excluded, or required. For more information, see Amazon EC2 instance store in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances. Default: `included`
Indicates the type of local storage that is required.
Price protection The price protection threshold for Spot Instances, as a percentage of 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. If no current generation C, M, or R instance type matches your attributes, then the identified price is from either the lowest priced current generation instance types or, failing that, the lowest priced previous generation instance types that match your attributes. When Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects instance types with your attributes, we will exclude instance types whose price exceeds your specified threshold. The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling interprets as a percentage. If you set `DesiredCapacityType` to `vcpu` or `memory-mib`, the price protection threshold is based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per instance price. Only one of `SpotMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPrice` or `MaxSpotPriceAsPercentageOfOptimalOnDemandPrice` can be specified. If you don't specify either, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling 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 as `999999`.
The minimum and maximum amount of memory per vCPU for an instance type, in GiB. Default: No minimum or maximum limits
The minimum and maximum instance memory size for an instance type, in MiB.
The minimum and maximum amount of network bandwidth, in gigabits per second (Gbps). Default: No minimum or maximum limits
The minimum and maximum number of network interfaces for an instance type. Default: No minimum or maximum limits
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. If no current generation C, M, or R instance type matches your attributes, then the identified price is from either the lowest priced current generation instance types or, failing that, the lowest priced previous generation instance types that match your attributes. When Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects instance types with your attributes, we will exclude instance types whose price exceeds your specified threshold. The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling interprets as a percentage. To turn off price protection, specify a high value, such as `999999`. If you set `DesiredCapacityType` to `vcpu` or `memory-mib`, the price protection threshold is applied based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per instance price. Default: `20`
Indicates whether instance types must provide On-Demand Instance hibernation support. Default: `false`
Price protection The price protection threshold for Spot Instances, as a percentage higher than an identified Spot price. The identified Spot price is the price of the lowest priced current generation C, M, or R instance type with your specified attributes. If no current generation C, M, or R instance type matches your attributes, then the identified price is from either the lowest priced current generation instance types or, failing that, the lowest priced previous generation instance types that match your attributes. When Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling selects instance types with your attributes, we will exclude instance types whose price exceeds your specified threshold. The parameter accepts an integer, which Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling interprets as a percentage. If you set `DesiredCapacityType` to `vcpu` or `memory-mib`, the price protection threshold is based on the per-vCPU or per-memory price instead of the per instance price. Only one of `SpotMaxPricePercentageOverLowestPrice` or `MaxSpotPriceAsPercentageOfOptimalOnDemandPrice` can be specified. If you don't specify either, Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling 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 as `999999`.
The minimum and maximum total local storage size for an instance type, in GB. Default: No minimum or maximum limits
The minimum and maximum number of vCPUs for an instance type.
