Elastic Compute Service:ModifyInstanceAttribute

更新時間:Sep 29, 2024

Modifies the attributes of an Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance, such as the password, name, description, hostname, security groups, maximum transmission unit (MTU), and user data. If the instance is a burstable instance, you can also change the performance mode of the instance.

Operation description

Usage notes

If the response contains {"OperationLocks": {"LockReason" : "security"}} when you query the information of the instance, the instance is locked for security reasons and no operations are allowed on the instance.

Take note of the following items:

  • If you change the hostname (HostName), restart the instance in the ECS console or by calling the RebootInstance operation for the new hostname to take effect. For information about how to restart an instance in the ECS console, see Restart an instance. The new hostname may not take effect if you restart the instance from within the operating system.

  • If you reset the password (Password), take note of the following items:

    • The instance cannot be in the Starting (Starting) state.
    • After you reset the password, restart the instance in the ECS console or by calling the RebootInstance operation for the new password to take effect. For information about how to restart an instance in the ECS console, see Restart an instance. The new password does not take effect if you restart the instance from within the operating system.
  • If you modify user data (UserData), take note of the following items: The instance must meet the limits for user data. For more information, see Instance user data.

    **

    Note After you restart the instance, the new user data is displayed but not run as scripts.

  • If you change the security groups (SecurityGroupIds.N), take note of the following items:

    • You can move the instance to a security group of a different type. If you want to move the instance to a security group of a different type, you must familiarize yourself with the differences between the rule configurations of the two security group types to prevent impacts on the instance network.
    • Security groups of instances in the classic network cannot be changed. For more information, see the description of SecurityGroupIds.N.
  • If you change the number of queues supported by the primary elastic network interface (ENI) (NetworkInterfaceQueueNumber), take note of the following items:

    • The instance must be in the Stopped (Stopped) state.
    • The value of this parameter cannot exceed the maximum number of queues allowed per ENI.
    • The total number of queues for all ENIs on the instance cannot exceed the queue quota for the instance type. To query the maximum number of queues per ENI and the queue quota for an instance type, you can call the DescribeInstanceTypes operation and view the values of the MaximumQueueNumberPerEni and TotalEniQueueQuantity response parameters.
    • If you set this parameter to -1, the value is reset to the default value for the instance type. To query the default number of queues supported per primary ENI for an instance type, you can call the DescribeInstanceTypes operation and view the value of the PrimaryEniQueueNumber response parameter.
  • If you enable or disable the Jumbo Frames feature (EnableJumboFrame), take note of the following items. For more information, see MTUs .

    • The instance must be in the Running (Running) or Stopped (Stopped) state.
    • The instance must reside in a virtual private cloud (VPC).
    • After the Jumbo Frames feature is enabled, the MTU value of the instance is set to 8500. After the Jumbo Frames feature is disabled, the MTU value of the instance is set to 1500.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer.

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
InstanceIdstringYes

The instance ID.

i-bp67acfmxazb4ph****
PasswordstringNo

The password of the instance. The password must be 8 to 30 characters in length and contain at least three of the following character types: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters. The following special characters are supported:

( ) ` ~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * - _ + = | { } [ ] : ; ' < > , . ? /

The password of a Windows instance cannot start with a forward slash (/).

Note For security reasons, we recommend that you use HTTPS to send requests if Password is specified.
Test123456
HostNamestringNo

The hostname of the instance. Take note of the following items:

  • When you change the hostname of the instance, the instance cannot be in the Creating (Pending) or Starting (Starting) state. Otherwise, the new hostname and the configurations in /etc/hosts may not take effect. You can call the DescribeInstances operation to query the status of the instance.
  • After you change the hostname, you must call the RebootInstance operation for the new hostname to take effect.

The following limits apply to the hostnames of instances that run different operating systems:

  • For Windows Server, the hostname must be 2 to 15 characters in length and can contain letters, digits, and hyphens (-). The hostname cannot start or end with a hyphen (-), contain consecutive hyphens (-), or contain only digits.
  • For other operating systems such as Linux, the hostname must be 2 to 64 characters in length. You can use periods (.) to separate a hostname into multiple segments. Each segment can contain letters, digits, and hyphens (-). The hostname cannot contain consecutive periods (.) or hyphens (-). The hostname cannot start or end with a period (.) or a hyphen (-).
testHostName
InstanceNamestringNo

The name of the instance. The name must be 2 to 128 characters in length. The name must start with a letter and cannot start with http:// or https://. The name can contain letters, digits, colons (:), underscores (_), and hyphens (-).

testInstanceName
DescriptionstringNo

The description of the instance. The description must be 2 to 256 characters in length and cannot start with http:// or https://.

testInstanceDescription
UserDatastringNo

The user data of the instance. The user data must be encoded in Base64.

The maximum size of the raw data before encoding is 32 KB. We recommend that you do not pass in confidential information such as passwords and private keys in plaintext. If you must pass in confidential information, we recommend that you encrypt and Base64-encode the information before you pass it in. Then, you can decode and decrypt the information in the same way within the instance.
