Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

AssociationDescription

Describes the parameters for a document.

Contents

AlarmConfiguration

The details for the CloudWatch alarm you want to apply to an automation or command.

Type: AlarmConfiguration object

Required: No

ApplyOnlyAtCronInterval

By default, when you create a new associations, the system runs it immediately after it is created and then according to the schedule you specified. Specify this option if you don't want an association to run immediately after you create it. This parameter isn't supported for rate expressions.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

AssociationId

The association ID.

Type: String

Pattern: [0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}

Required: No

AssociationName

The association name.

Type: String

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9_\-.]{3,128}$

Required: No

AssociationVersion

The association version.

Type: String

Pattern: ([$]LATEST)|([1-9][0-9]*)

Required: No

AutomationTargetParameterName

Choose the parameter that will define how your automation will branch out. This target is required for associations that use an Automation runbook and target resources by using rate controls. Automation is a capability of Amazon Systems Manager.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 50.

Required: No

CalendarNames

The names or Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the Change Calendar type documents your associations are gated under. The associations only run when that change calendar is open. For more information, see Amazon Systems Manager Change Calendar.

Type: Array of strings

Required: No

ComplianceSeverity

The severity level that is assigned to the association.

Type: String

Valid Values: CRITICAL | HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW | UNSPECIFIED

Required: No

Date

The date when the association was made.

Type: Timestamp

Required: No

DocumentVersion

The document version.

Type: String

Pattern: ([$]LATEST|[$]DEFAULT|^[1-9][0-9]*$)

Required: No

Duration

The number of hours that an association can run on specified targets. After the resulting cutoff time passes, associations that are currently running are cancelled, and no pending executions are started on remaining targets.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 24.

Required: No

InstanceId

The managed node ID.

Type: String

Pattern: (^i-(\w{8}|\w{17})$)|(^mi-\w{17}$)

Required: No

LastExecutionDate

The date on which the association was last run.

Type: Timestamp

Required: No

LastSuccessfulExecutionDate

The last date on which the association was successfully run.

Type: Timestamp

Required: No

LastUpdateAssociationDate

The date when the association was last updated.

Type: Timestamp

Required: No

MaxConcurrency

The maximum number of targets allowed to run the association at the same time. You can specify a number, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. The default value is 100%, which means all targets run the association at the same time.

If a new managed node starts and attempts to run an association while Systems Manager is running MaxConcurrency associations, the association is allowed to run. During the next association interval, the new managed node will process its association within the limit specified for MaxConcurrency.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 7.

Pattern: ^([1-9][0-9]*|[1-9][0-9]%|[1-9]%|100%)$

Required: No

MaxErrors

The number of errors that are allowed before the system stops sending requests to run the association on additional targets. You can specify either an absolute number of errors, for example 10, or a percentage of the target set, for example 10%. If you specify 3, for example, the system stops sending requests when the fourth error is received. If you specify 0, then the system stops sending requests after the first error is returned. If you run an association on 50 managed nodes and set MaxError to 10%, then the system stops sending the request when the sixth error is received.

Executions that are already running an association when MaxErrors is reached are allowed to complete, but some of these executions may fail as well. If you need to ensure that there won't be more than max-errors failed executions, set MaxConcurrency to 1 so that executions proceed one at a time.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 7.

Pattern: ^([1-9][0-9]*|[0]|[1-9][0-9]%|[0-9]%|100%)$

Required: No

Name

The name of the SSM document.

Type: String

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9_\-.:/]{3,128}$

Required: No

OutputLocation

An S3 bucket where you want to store the output details of the request.

Type: InstanceAssociationOutputLocation object

Required: No

Overview

Information about the association.

Type: AssociationOverview object

Required: No

Parameters

A description of the parameters for a document.

Type: String to array of strings map

Required: No

ScheduleExpression

A cron expression that specifies a schedule when the association runs.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 256.

Required: No

ScheduleOffset

Number of days to wait after the scheduled day to run an association.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 6.

Required: No

Status

The association status.

Type: AssociationStatus object

Required: No

SyncCompliance

The mode for generating association compliance. You can specify AUTO or MANUAL. In AUTO mode, the system uses the status of the association execution to determine the compliance status. If the association execution runs successfully, then the association is COMPLIANT. If the association execution doesn't run successfully, the association is NON-COMPLIANT.

In MANUAL mode, you must specify the AssociationId as a parameter for the PutComplianceItems API operation. In this case, compliance data isn't managed by State Manager, a capability of Amazon Systems Manager. It is managed by your direct call to the PutComplianceItems API operation.

By default, all associations use AUTO mode.

Type: String

Valid Values: AUTO | MANUAL

Required: No

TargetLocations

The combination of Amazon Web Services Regions and Amazon Web Services accounts where you want to run the association.

Type: Array of TargetLocation objects

Required: No

TargetMaps

A key-value mapping of document parameters to target resources. Both Targets and TargetMaps can't be specified together.

Type: Array of string to array of strings maps

Array Members: Minimum number of 0 items. Maximum number of 300 items.

Map Entries: Maximum number of 20 items.

Key Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 50.
