aws lightsail stop-instance
Stops a specific Amazon Lightsail instance that is currently running. When you start a stopped instance, Lightsail assigns a new public IP address to the instance. To use the same IP address after stopping and starting an instance, create a static IP address and attach it to the instance. For more information, see the Lightsail Dev Guide. The stop instance operation supports tag-based access control via resource tags applied to the resource identified by instance name. For more information, see the Lightsail Dev Guide
Options
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--instance-name <string> | The name of the instance (a virtual private server) to stop |
--force | When set to True, forces a Lightsail instance that is stuck in a stopping state to stop. Only use the force parameter if your instance is stuck in the stopping state. In any other state, your instance should stop normally without adding this parameter to your API request |
--no-force | When set to True, forces a Lightsail instance that is stuck in a stopping state to stop. Only use the force parameter if your instance is stuck in the stopping state. In any other state, your instance should stop normally without adding this parameter to your API request |
--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 |
