Elastic Compute Service:RebootInstances

Last Updated:Dec 17, 2024

Restarts Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances. When you call this operation, you can configure parameters to specify a batch operation mode and whether to forcefully restart the instances.

Operation description

This operation is an asynchronous operation. After you call this operation to restart an ECS instance, the operation sets the status of the ECS instance to Starting and begins the restart process. You can call the DescribeInstanceStatus operation to query the status of the instance. When the status of the ECS instance changes to Running, the instance is restarted.

Limits

Debugging

You can run this interface directly in OpenAPI Explorer, saving you the trouble of calculating signatures. After running successfully, OpenAPI Explorer can automatically generate SDK code samples.

Authorization information

The following table shows the authorization information corresponding to the API. The authorization information can be used in the Action policy element to grant a RAM user or RAM role the permissions to call this API operation. Description:

  • Operation: the value that you can use in the Action element to specify the operation on a resource.
  • Access level: the access level of each operation. The levels are read, write, and list.
  • Resource type: the type of the resource on which you can authorize the RAM user or the RAM role to perform the operation. Take note of the following items:
    • The required resource types are displayed in bold characters.
    • If the permissions cannot be granted at the resource level, All Resources is used in the Resource type column of the operation.
  • Condition Key: the condition key that is defined by the cloud service.
  • Associated operation: other operations that the RAM user or the RAM role must have permissions to perform to complete the operation. To complete the operation, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform the associated operations.

Request parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDescriptionExample
DryRunbooleanNo

Specifies whether to perform only a dry run, without performing the actual request. Valid values:

  • true: performs only a dry run. The system checks the request for potential issues, including missing parameter values, incorrect request syntax, and instance status. If the request fails the dry run, an error message is returned. If the request passes the dry run, DRYRUN.SUCCESS is returned.
Note If you set BatchOptimization to SuccessFirst and DryRun to true, only DRYRUN.SUCCESS is returned regardless of whether the request passes the dry run.
  • false: performs a dry run and sends the request. If the request passes the dry run, the instance is restarted.

Default value: false.

false
RegionIdstringYes

The region ID. You can call the DescribeRegions operation to query the most recent region list.

ForceRebootbooleanNo

Specifies whether to forcefully restart the instance. Valid values:

  • true: forcefully restarts the instance. This operation is equivalent to the typical power-off operation. Cache data that is not written to storage devices on the instance is lost.
  • false: normally restarts the instance.

Default value: false.

false
BatchOptimizationstringNo

The batch operation mode. Valid values:

  • AllTogether: In this mode, if all instances are restarted, a success message is returned. If an instance fails the verification, all instances fail to be restarted and an error message is returned.
  • SuccessFirst: In this mode, each instance is restarted separately. The response contains the operation results of each instance.

Default value: AllTogether.

AllTogether
InstanceIdarrayYes

The IDs of ECS instances. Valid values of N: 1 to 100.

stringYes

The ID of ECS instance N.
