aws autoscaling enter-standby

Moves the specified instances into the standby state. If you choose to decrement the desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group, the instances can enter standby as long as the desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group after the instances are placed into standby is equal to or greater than the minimum capacity of the group. If you choose not to decrement the desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group, the Auto Scaling group launches new instances to replace the instances on standby. For more information, see Temporarily removing instances from your Auto Scaling group in the Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling User Guide

Options

--instance-ids <list>The IDs of the instances. You can specify up to 20 instances
--auto-scaling-group-name <string>The name of the Auto Scaling group
--should-decrement-desired-capacityIndicates whether to decrement the desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group by the number of instances moved to Standby mode
--no-should-decrement-desired-capacityIndicates whether to decrement the desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group by the number of instances moved to Standby mode
--cli-input-json <string>Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by ``--generate-cli-skeleton``. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally
--generate-cli-skeleton <string>Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value ``input``, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for ``--cli-input-json``. If provided with the value ``output``, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command
