NAME

eclat-setiattr, eclat-modify-instance-attribute - modifies attribute of an instance

SYNOPSIS

eclat setiattr [-bf] [--base64] [--file] INSTANCE-ID ATTR VALUE [VALUE...]

eclat setiattr --help

DESCRIPTION

Modifies the specified attribute of an instance. Only one attribute can be modified at a time.

If ID translation is enabled (see the section MAPS in eclat(1)), this command uses the InstanceId map to translate INSTANCE-ID to the corresponding identifier.

OPTIONS

Both options are valid only when setting the value of UserData:

-b, --base64: Value is already base64-encoded. If that option is not given, eclat assumes the value is plaintext and will encode it.
-f, --file: Treat the VALUE argument as the name of file to read the value from. To read from the standard input, use - (a dash).

ATTRIBUTES

The ATTR argument can be one of the following:

InstanceType: Changes the instance type to the specified value.
Kernel: Changes the instance kernel to the specified value.
Ramdisk: Changes the instance RAM disk.
UserData: Changes the instance user-specified data.
DisableApiTermination: Changes the instance termination status. The VALUE of true means that the instance cannot be terminated using the API. The VALUE of false means the instance can be terminated via the API.
InstanceInitiatedShutdownBehavior: Changes the instance initiated shutdown behavior. Allowed values are stop (instance will be stopped instead of terminated), and terminate (instance will be terminated).
BlockDeviceMapping: Change DeleteOnTermination flag for one or more volumes that are currently attached. When this attribute is used, multiple VALUEs are allowed. Each of them must have the form DEVICE=BOOL, where DEVICE is the name of the device the volume is attached to, and BOOL is either true (the volume is deleted when the instance is terminated) or false (the volume remains intact on instance termination).
sourceDestCheck: Controls Network Address Translation in a VPC. The instance is able to perform NAT if VALUE is false, and cannot do so if it is true.
groupId: Changes the security groups this instance is in. This attribute is valid only for instances running in a VPC. One or more VALUEs can be given.
ebsOptimized: Controls whether the instance is optimized for EBS I/O. Allowed values are true or false.
