CreateEciScalingConfiguration - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center

Creates a scaling configuration of the Elastic Container Instance type. Auto Scaling uses the scaling configuration as a template to create elastic container instances during scale-out events based on your business requirements.

Usage notes

A scaling configuration is a template that is used to create elastic container instances during scale-out events.

You can specify Cpu and Memory to determine the range of instance types. Then, Auto Scaling determines the available instance types based on factors such as I/O optimization requirements and zones. Auto Scaling preferentially creates elastic container instances by using the instance type that has the lowest price. This method is suitable only if you set Scaling Policy to Cost Optimization Policy and specify no instance type in the scaling configuration.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.

Request parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Example	Description
Action	String	Yes	CreateEciScalingConfiguration	The operation that you want to perform. Set the value to CreateEciScalingConfiguration.
ScalingGroupId	String	Yes	asg-bp14wlu85wrpchm0****	The ID of the scaling group for which you want to create the scaling configuration.
ScalingConfigurationName	String	Yes	scalingconfig****	The name of the scaling configuration that you want to create. The name must be 2 to 64 characters in length and can contain letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.). The name must start with a letter or a digit. The name of the scaling configuration must be unique in a region. If you leave this parameter empty, the scaling configuration ID is used.
SecurityGroupId	String	Yes	sg-uf66jeqopgqa9hdn****	The ID of the security group with which you want to associate the elastic container instances created from the scaling configuration. Elastic container instances that are associated with the same security group can communicate with each other. If you do not specify a security group, the system automatically uses the default security group in the region that you select. Make sure that the protocols and ports of the elastic container instances that you want to expose are added to the inbound rules of the security group. If no default security group exists in the region, the system automatically creates a default security group and adds the specified container protocols and ports to the inbound rules of the security group.
ContainerGroupName	String	Yes	nginx-test[0,3]	The name series of the elastic container instances created from the scaling configuration. If you want to use an ordered instance name, specify a value for this parameter in the following format: `name_prefix(AUTO_INCREMENT)[begin_number,bits]name_suffix`. name_prefix: the prefix of the hostname. (AUTO_INCREMENT): the sort method. This is a static field. begin_number: the start value of the sequential values. Valid values: `0 to 999999`. bits: the number of digits in sequential values. Valid values: `1 to 6`. If the number of digits in the value of the begin_number field is greater than the value of the bits field, the bits field is automatically set to 6. Note We recommend that you set the bits field to a value that is greater than or equal to 3. Otherwise, the upper limit of the sequential values may be reached in a short period of time. If Auto Scaling needs to create more elastic container instances after the upper limit is reached, an error is reported and the scale-out operation stops. In this case, you must reconfigure the rules for generating hostnames. name_suffix: the suffix of the hostname. This field is optional. Note The `[begin_number,bits]` field cannot contain spaces. By default, the sequential hostnames are increased based on a fixed value. If Auto Scaling fails to start an elastic container instance in a scaling group during a scale-out event, Auto Scaling removes the elastic container instance from the scaling group and creates another instance. In this case, the hostnames of elastic container instances in the scaling group may have an intermittent increasing pattern. For example, if you specify `nginx-test-(AUTO_INCREMENT)[0,3]`, the sequential hostnames of the elastic container instances in the scaling group are nginx-test-000, nginx-test-001, and nginx-test-002. The rules for configuring sequential hostnames for elastic container instances are similar to the rules for configuring sequential hostnames for Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances. For more information, see Configure naming rules for ECS instances.
