container_definitions

Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
Provider name: containerDefinitions
Description: A list of container definitions in JSON format that describe the different containers that make up your task. For more information about container definition parameters and defaults, see Amazon ECS Task Definitions in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

  • command
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRING
    Provider name: command
    Description: The command that’s passed to the container. This parameter maps to Cmd in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the COMMAND parameter to docker run. For more information, see https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#cmd. If there are multiple arguments, each argument is a separated string in the array.
  • cpu
    Type: INT32
    Provider name: cpu
    Description: The number of cpu units reserved for the container. This parameter maps to CpuShares in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –cpu-shares option to docker run. This field is optional for tasks using the Fargate launch type, and the only requirement is that the total amount of CPU reserved for all containers within a task be lower than the task-level cpu value. You can determine the number of CPU units that are available per EC2 instance type by multiplying the vCPUs listed for that instance type on the Amazon EC2 Instances detail page by 1,024. Linux containers share unallocated CPU units with other containers on the container instance with the same ratio as their allocated amount. For example, if you run a single-container task on a single-core instance type with 512 CPU units specified for that container, and that’s the only task running on the container instance, that container could use the full 1,024 CPU unit share at any given time. However, if you launched another copy of the same task on that container instance, each task is guaranteed a minimum of 512 CPU units when needed. Moreover, each container could float to higher CPU usage if the other container was not using it. If both tasks were 100% active all of the time, they would be limited to 512 CPU units. On Linux container instances, the Docker daemon on the container instance uses the CPU value to calculate the relative CPU share ratios for running containers. For more information, see CPU share constraint in the Docker documentation. The minimum valid CPU share value that the Linux kernel allows is 2. However, the CPU parameter isn’t required, and you can use CPU values below 2 in your container definitions. For CPU values below 2 (including null), the behavior varies based on your Amazon ECS container agent version:
    • Agent versions less than or equal to 1.1.0: Null and zero CPU values are passed to Docker as 0, which Docker then converts to 1,024 CPU shares. CPU values of 1 are passed to Docker as 1, which the Linux kernel converts to two CPU shares.
    • Agent versions greater than or equal to 1.2.0: Null, zero, and CPU values of 1 are passed to Docker as 2.
    On Windows container instances, the CPU limit is enforced as an absolute limit, or a quota. Windows containers only have access to the specified amount of CPU that’s described in the task definition. A null or zero CPU value is passed to Docker as 0, which Windows interprets as 1% of one CPU.
  • credential_specs
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRING
    Provider name: credentialSpecs
    Description: A list of ARNs in SSM or Amazon S3 to a credential spec (CredSpec) file that configures the container for Active Directory authentication. We recommend that you use this parameter instead of the dockerSecurityOptions. The maximum number of ARNs is 1. There are two formats for each ARN.
    credentialspecdomainless:MyARN
    You use credentialspecdomainless:MyARN to provide a CredSpec with an additional section for a secret in Secrets Manager. You provide the login credentials to the domain in the secret. Each task that runs on any container instance can join different domains. You can use this format without joining the container instance to a domain.
    credentialspec:MyARN
    You use credentialspec:MyARN to provide a CredSpec for a single domain. You must join the container instance to the domain before you start any tasks that use this task definition.
    In both formats, replace MyARN with the ARN in SSM or Amazon S3. If you provide a credentialspecdomainless:MyARN, the credspec must provide a ARN in Secrets Manager for a secret containing the username, password, and the domain to connect to. For better security, the instance isn’t joined to the domain for domainless authentication. Other applications on the instance can’t use the domainless credentials. You can use this parameter to run tasks on the same instance, even it the tasks need to join different domains. For more information, see Using gMSAs for Windows Containers and Using gMSAs for Linux Containers.
  • depends_on
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
    Provider name: dependsOn
    Description: The dependencies defined for container startup and shutdown. A container can contain multiple dependencies on other containers in a task definition. When a dependency is defined for container startup, for container shutdown it is reversed. For tasks using the EC2 launch type, the container instances require at least version 1.26.0 of the container agent to turn on container dependencies. However, we recommend using the latest container agent version. For information about checking your agent version and updating to the latest version, see Updating the Amazon ECS Container Agent in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. If you’re using an Amazon ECS-optimized Linux AMI, your instance needs at least version 1.26.0-1 of the ecs-init package. If your container instances are launched from version 20190301 or later, then they contain the required versions of the container agent and ecs-init. For more information, see Amazon ECS-optimized Linux AMI in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. For tasks using the Fargate launch type, the task or service requires the following platforms:
    • Linux platform version 1.3.0 or later.
    • Windows platform version 1.0.0 or later.
    • condition
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: condition
      Description: The dependency condition of the container. The following are the available conditions and their behavior:
      • START - This condition emulates the behavior of links and volumes today. It validates that a dependent container is started before permitting other containers to start.
      • COMPLETE - This condition validates that a dependent container runs to completion (exits) before permitting other containers to start. This can be useful for nonessential containers that run a script and then exit. This condition can’t be set on an essential container.
      • SUCCESS - This condition is the same as COMPLETE, but it also requires that the container exits with a zero status. This condition can’t be set on an essential container.
      • HEALTHY - This condition validates that the dependent container passes its Docker health check before permitting other containers to start. This requires that the dependent container has health checks configured. This condition is confirmed only at task startup.

  • docker_security_options
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRING
    Provider name: dockerSecurityOptions
    Description: A list of strings to provide custom configuration for multiple security systems. For more information about valid values, see Docker Run Security Configuration. This field isn’t valid for containers in tasks using the Fargate launch type. For Linux tasks on EC2, this parameter can be used to reference custom labels for SELinux and AppArmor multi-level security systems. For any tasks on EC2, this parameter can be used to reference a credential spec file that configures a container for Active Directory authentication. For more information, see Using gMSAs for Windows Containers and Using gMSAs for Linux Containers in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. This parameter maps to SecurityOpt in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –security-opt option to docker run. The Amazon ECS container agent running on a container instance must register with the ECS_SELINUX_CAPABLE=true or ECS_APPARMOR_CAPABLE=true environment variables before containers placed on that instance can use these security options.

The file must have a .env file extension. Each line in an environment file contains an environment variable in VARIABLE=VALUE format. Lines beginning with # are treated as comments and are ignored. For more information about the environment variable file syntax, see Declare default environment variables in file. If there are environment variables specified using the environment parameter in a container definition, they take precedence over the variables contained within an environment file. If multiple environment files are specified that contain the same variable, they’re processed from the top down. We recommend that you use unique variable names. For more information, see Specifying Environment Variables in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

  • log_configuration
    Type: STRUCT
    Provider name: logConfiguration
    Description: The log configuration specification for the container. This parameter maps to LogConfig in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –log-driver option to docker run. By default, containers use the same logging driver that the Docker daemon uses. However the container can use a different logging driver than the Docker daemon by specifying a log driver with this parameter in the container definition. To use a different logging driver for a container, the log system must be configured properly on the container instance (or on a different log server for remote logging options). For more information about the options for different supported log drivers, see Configure logging drivers in the Docker documentation. Amazon ECS currently supports a subset of the logging drivers available to the Docker daemon (shown in the LogConfiguration data type). Additional log drivers may be available in future releases of the Amazon ECS container agent. This parameter requires version 1.18 of the Docker Remote API or greater on your container instance. To check the Docker Remote API version on your container instance, log in to your container instance and run the following command: sudo docker version –format ‘{{.Server.APIVersion}}’ The Amazon ECS container agent running on a container instance must register the logging drivers available on that instance with the ECS_AVAILABLE_LOGGING_DRIVERS environment variable before containers placed on that instance can use these log configuration options. For more information, see Amazon ECS Container Agent Configuration in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
    • log_driver

For tasks hosted on Amazon EC2 instances, the supported log drivers are awslogs, fluentd, gelf, json-file, journald, logentries,syslog, splunk, and awsfirelens. For more information about using the awslogs log driver, see Using the awslogs log driver in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. For more information about using the awsfirelens log driver, see Custom log routing in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. If you have a custom driver that isn’t listed, you can fork the Amazon ECS container agent project that’s available on GitHub and customize it to work with that driver. We encourage you to submit pull requests for changes that you would like to have included. However, we don’t currently provide support for running modified copies of this software.
    • options
      Type: MAP_STRING_STRING
      Provider name: options
      Description: The configuration options to send to the log driver. This parameter requires version 1.19 of the Docker Remote API or greater on your container instance. To check the Docker Remote API version on your container instance, log in to your container instance and run the following command: sudo docker version –format ‘{{.Server.APIVersion}}’
    • secret_options
      Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
      Provider name: secretOptions
      Description: The secrets to pass to the log configuration. For more information, see Specifying sensitive data in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
      • name
        Type: STRING
        Provider name: name
        Description: The name of the secret.
      • value_from
        Type: STRING
        Provider name: valueFrom
        Description: The secret to expose to the container. The supported values are either the full ARN of the Secrets Manager secret or the full ARN of the parameter in the SSM Parameter Store. For information about the require Identity and Access Management permissions, see Required IAM permissions for Amazon ECS secrets (for Secrets Manager) or Required IAM permissions for Amazon ECS secrets (for Systems Manager Parameter store) in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. If the SSM Parameter Store parameter exists in the same Region as the task you’re launching, then you can use either the full ARN or name of the parameter. If the parameter exists in a different Region, then the full ARN must be specified.
  • memory
    Type: INT32
    Provider name: memory
    Description: The amount (in MiB) of memory to present to the container. If your container attempts to exceed the memory specified here, the container is killed. The total amount of memory reserved for all containers within a task must be lower than the task memory value, if one is specified. This parameter maps to Memory in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –memory option to docker run. If using the Fargate launch type, this parameter is optional. If using the EC2 launch type, you must specify either a task-level memory value or a container-level memory value. If you specify both a container-level memory and memoryReservation value, memory must be greater than memoryReservation. If you specify memoryReservation, then that value is subtracted from the available memory resources for the container instance where the container is placed. Otherwise, the value of memory is used. The Docker 20.10.0 or later daemon reserves a minimum of 6 MiB of memory for a container. So, don’t specify less than 6 MiB of memory for your containers. The Docker 19.03.13-ce or earlier daemon reserves a minimum of 4 MiB of memory for a container. So, don’t specify less than 4 MiB of memory for your containers.
  • memory_reservation
    Type: INT32
    Provider name: memoryReservation
    Description: The soft limit (in MiB) of memory to reserve for the container. When system memory is under heavy contention, Docker attempts to keep the container memory to this soft limit. However, your container can consume more memory when it needs to, up to either the hard limit specified with the memory parameter (if applicable), or all of the available memory on the container instance, whichever comes first. This parameter maps to MemoryReservation in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –memory-reservation option to docker run. If a task-level memory value is not specified, you must specify a non-zero integer for one or both of memory or memoryReservation in a container definition. If you specify both, memory must be greater than memoryReservation. If you specify memoryReservation, then that value is subtracted from the available memory resources for the container instance where the container is placed. Otherwise, the value of memory is used. For example, if your container normally uses 128 MiB of memory, but occasionally bursts to 256 MiB of memory for short periods of time, you can set a memoryReservation of 128 MiB, and a memory hard limit of 300 MiB. This configuration would allow the container to only reserve 128 MiB of memory from the remaining resources on the container instance, but also allow the container to consume more memory resources when needed. The Docker 20.10.0 or later daemon reserves a minimum of 6 MiB of memory for a container. So, don’t specify less than 6 MiB of memory for your containers. The Docker 19.03.13-ce or earlier daemon reserves a minimum of 4 MiB of memory for a container. So, don’t specify less than 4 MiB of memory for your containers.
  • mount_points
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
    Provider name: mountPoints
    Description: The mount points for data volumes in your container. This parameter maps to Volumes in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –volume option to docker run. Windows containers can mount whole directories on the same drive as $env:ProgramData. Windows containers can’t mount directories on a different drive, and mount point can’t be across drives.
    • container_path
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: containerPath
      Description: The path on the container to mount the host volume at.
    • read_only
      Type: BOOLEAN
      Provider name: readOnly
      Description: If this value is true, the container has read-only access to the volume. If this value is false, then the container can write to the volume. The default value is false.
    • source_volume
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: sourceVolume
      Description: The name of the volume to mount. Must be a volume name referenced in the name parameter of task definition volume.
  • name
    Type: STRING
    Provider name: name
    Description: The name of a container. If you’re linking multiple containers together in a task definition, the name of one container can be entered in the links of another container to connect the containers. Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, underscores, and hyphens are allowed. This parameter maps to name in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –name option to docker run.
  • port_mappings
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
    Provider name: portMappings
    Description: The list of port mappings for the container. Port mappings allow containers to access ports on the host container instance to send or receive traffic. For task definitions that use the awsvpc network mode, only specify the containerPort. The hostPort can be left blank or it must be the same value as the containerPort. Port mappings on Windows use the NetNAT gateway address rather than localhost. There’s no loopback for port mappings on Windows, so you can’t access a container’s mapped port from the host itself. This parameter maps to PortBindings in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –publish option to docker run. If the network mode of a task definition is set to none, then you can’t specify port mappings. If the network mode of a task definition is set to host, then host ports must either be undefined or they must match the container port in the port mapping. After a task reaches the RUNNING status, manual and automatic host and container port assignments are visible in the Network Bindings section of a container description for a selected task in the Amazon ECS console. The assignments are also visible in the networkBindings section DescribeTasks responses.
    • app_protocol
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: appProtocol
      Description: The application protocol that’s used for the port mapping. This parameter only applies to Service Connect. We recommend that you set this parameter to be consistent with the protocol that your application uses. If you set this parameter, Amazon ECS adds protocol-specific connection handling to the Service Connect proxy. If you set this parameter, Amazon ECS adds protocol-specific telemetry in the Amazon ECS console and CloudWatch. If you don’t set a value for this parameter, then TCP is used. However, Amazon ECS doesn’t add protocol-specific telemetry for TCP. appProtocol is immutable in a Service Connect service. Updating this field requires a service deletion and redeployment. Tasks that run in a namespace can use short names to connect to services in the namespace. Tasks can connect to services across all of the clusters in the namespace. Tasks connect through a managed proxy container that collects logs and metrics for increased visibility. Only the tasks that Amazon ECS services create are supported with Service Connect. For more information, see Service Connect in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
    • container_port
      Type: INT32
      Provider name: containerPort
      Description: The port number on the container that’s bound to the user-specified or automatically assigned host port. If you use containers in a task with the awsvpc or host network mode, specify the exposed ports using containerPort. If you use containers in a task with the bridge network mode and you specify a container port and not a host port, your container automatically receives a host port in the ephemeral port range. For more information, see hostPort. Port mappings that are automatically assigned in this way do not count toward the 100 reserved ports limit of a container instance.
    • container_port_range
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: containerPortRange
      Description: The port number range on the container that’s bound to the dynamically mapped host port range. The following rules apply when you specify a containerPortRange:
      • You must use either the bridge network mode or the awsvpc network mode.
      • This parameter is available for both the EC2 and Fargate launch types.
      • This parameter is available for both the Linux and Windows operating systems.
      • The container instance must have at least version 1.67.0 of the container agent and at least version 1.67.0-1 of the ecs-init package
      • You can specify a maximum of 100 port ranges per container.
      • You do not specify a hostPortRange. The value of the hostPortRange is set as follows:
        • For containers in a task with the awsvpc network mode, the hostPortRange is set to the same value as the containerPortRange. This is a static mapping strategy.
        • For containers in a task with the bridge network mode, the Amazon ECS agent finds open host ports from the default ephemeral range and passes it to docker to bind them to the container ports.
      • The containerPortRange valid values are between 1 and 65535.
      • A port can only be included in one port mapping per container.
      • You cannot specify overlapping port ranges.
      • The first port in the range must be less than last port in the range.
      • Docker recommends that you turn off the docker-proxy in the Docker daemon config file when you have a large number of ports. For more information, see Issue #11185 on the Github website. For information about how to turn off the docker-proxy in the Docker daemon config file, see Docker daemon in the Amazon ECS Developer Guide.
      You can call DescribeTasks to view the hostPortRange which are the host ports that are bound to the container ports.
    • host_port
      Type: INT32
      Provider name: hostPort
      Description: The port number on the container instance to reserve for your container. If you specify a containerPortRange, leave this field empty and the value of the hostPort is set as follows:
      • For containers in a task with the awsvpc network mode, the hostPort is set to the same value as the containerPort. This is a static mapping strategy.
      • For containers in a task with the bridge network mode, the Amazon ECS agent finds open ports on the host and automatically binds them to the container ports. This is a dynamic mapping strategy.
      If you use containers in a task with the awsvpc or host network mode, the hostPort can either be left blank or set to the same value as the containerPort. If you use containers in a task with the bridge network mode, you can specify a non-reserved host port for your container port mapping, or you can omit the hostPort (or set it to 0) while specifying a containerPort and your container automatically receives a port in the ephemeral port range for your container instance operating system and Docker version. The default ephemeral port range for Docker version 1.6.0 and later is listed on the instance under /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range. If this kernel parameter is unavailable, the default ephemeral port range from 49153 through 65535 (Linux) or 49152 through 65535 (Windows) is used. Do not attempt to specify a host port in the ephemeral port range as these are reserved for automatic assignment. In general, ports below 32768 are outside of the ephemeral port range. The default reserved ports are 22 for SSH, the Docker ports 2375 and 2376, and the Amazon ECS container agent ports 51678-51680. Any host port that was previously specified in a running task is also reserved while the task is running. That is, after a task stops, the host port is released. The current reserved ports are displayed in the remainingResources of DescribeContainerInstances output. A container instance can have up to 100 reserved ports at a time. This number includes the default reserved ports. Automatically assigned ports aren’t included in the 100 reserved ports quota.
    • name
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: name
      Description: The name that’s used for the port mapping. This parameter only applies to Service Connect. This parameter is the name that you use in the serviceConnectConfiguration of a service. The name can include up to 64 characters. The characters can include lowercase letters, numbers, underscores (_), and hyphens (-). The name can’t start with a hyphen. For more information, see Service Connect in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.
    • protocol
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: protocol
      Description: The protocol used for the port mapping. Valid values are tcp and udp. The default is tcp. protocol is immutable in a Service Connect service. Updating this field requires a service deletion and redeployment.
  • privileged
    Type: BOOLEAN
    Provider name: privileged
    Description: When this parameter is true, the container is given elevated privileges on the host container instance (similar to the root user). This parameter maps to Privileged in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –privileged option to docker run. This parameter is not supported for Windows containers or tasks run on Fargate.
  • pseudo_terminal
    Type: BOOLEAN
    Provider name: pseudoTerminal
    Description: When this parameter is true, a TTY is allocated. This parameter maps to Tty in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –tty option to docker run.
  • readonly_root_filesystem
    Type: BOOLEAN
    Provider name: readonlyRootFilesystem
    Description: When this parameter is true, the container is given read-only access to its root file system. This parameter maps to ReadonlyRootfs in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –read-only option to docker run. This parameter is not supported for Windows containers.
  • repository_credentials
    Type: STRUCT
    Provider name: repositoryCredentials
    Description: The private repository authentication credentials to use.
    • credentials_parameter
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: credentialsParameter
      Description: The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the secret containing the private repository credentials. When you use the Amazon ECS API, CLI, or Amazon Web Services SDK, if the secret exists in the same Region as the task that you’re launching then you can use either the full ARN or the name of the secret. When you use the Amazon Web Services Management Console, you must specify the full ARN of the secret.
  • resource_requirements
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
    Provider name: resourceRequirements
    Description: The type and amount of a resource to assign to a container. The only supported resource is a GPU.
    • type
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: type
      Description: The type of resource to assign to a container.
    • value
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: value
      Description: The value for the specified resource type. When the type is GPU, the value is the number of physical GPUs the Amazon ECS container agent reserves for the container. The number of GPUs that’s reserved for all containers in a task can’t exceed the number of available GPUs on the container instance that the task is launched on. When the type is InferenceAccelerator, the value matches the deviceName for an InferenceAccelerator specified in a task definition.
  • secrets

      Description: The secret to expose to the container. The supported values are either the full ARN of the Secrets Manager secret or the full ARN of the parameter in the SSM Parameter Store. For information about the require Identity and Access Management permissions, see Required IAM permissions for Amazon ECS secrets (for Secrets Manager) or Required IAM permissions for Amazon ECS secrets (for Systems Manager Parameter store) in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. If the SSM Parameter Store parameter exists in the same Region as the task you’re launching, then you can use either the full ARN or name of the parameter. If the parameter exists in a different Region, then the full ARN must be specified.
  • start_timeout
    Type: INT32
    Provider name: startTimeout
    Description: Time duration (in seconds) to wait before giving up on resolving dependencies for a container. For example, you specify two containers in a task definition with containerA having a dependency on containerB reaching a COMPLETE, SUCCESS, or HEALTHY status. If a startTimeout value is specified for containerB and it doesn’t reach the desired status within that time then containerA gives up and not start. This results in the task transitioning to a STOPPED state. When the ECS_CONTAINER_START_TIMEOUT container agent configuration variable is used, it’s enforced independently from this start timeout value. For tasks using the Fargate launch type, the task or service requires the following platforms:
    • Linux platform version 1.3.0 or later.
    • Windows platform version 1.0.0 or later.
    For tasks using the EC2 launch type, your container instances require at least version 1.26.0 of the container agent to use a container start timeout value. However, we recommend using the latest container agent version. For information about checking your agent version and updating to the latest version, see Updating the Amazon ECS Container Agent in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. If you’re using an Amazon ECS-optimized Linux AMI, your instance needs at least version 1.26.0-1 of the ecs-init package. If your container instances are launched from version 20190301 or later, then they contain the required versions of the container agent and ecs-init. For more information, see Amazon ECS-optimized Linux AMI in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. The valid values are 2-120 seconds.
  • stop_timeout
    Type: INT32
    Provider name: stopTimeout
    Description: Time duration (in seconds) to wait before the container is forcefully killed if it doesn’t exit normally on its own. For tasks using the Fargate launch type, the task or service requires the following platforms:
    • Linux platform version 1.3.0 or later.
    • Windows platform version 1.0.0 or later.
    The max stop timeout value is 120 seconds and if the parameter is not specified, the default value of 30 seconds is used. For tasks that use the EC2 launch type, if the stopTimeout parameter isn’t specified, the value set for the Amazon ECS container agent configuration variable ECS_CONTAINER_STOP_TIMEOUT is used. If neither the stopTimeout parameter or the ECS_CONTAINER_STOP_TIMEOUT agent configuration variable are set, then the default values of 30 seconds for Linux containers and 30 seconds on Windows containers are used. Your container instances require at least version 1.26.0 of the container agent to use a container stop timeout value. However, we recommend using the latest container agent version. For information about checking your agent version and updating to the latest version, see Updating the Amazon ECS Container Agent in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. If you’re using an Amazon ECS-optimized Linux AMI, your instance needs at least version 1.26.0-1 of the ecs-init package. If your container instances are launched from version 20190301 or later, then they contain the required versions of the container agent and ecs-init. For more information, see Amazon ECS-optimized Linux AMI in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. The valid values are 2-120 seconds.
  • system_controls
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
    Provider name: systemControls
    Description: A list of namespaced kernel parameters to set in the container.

Valid IPC namespace values: “kernel.msgmax” | “kernel.msgmnb” | “kernel.msgmni” | “kernel.sem” | “kernel.shmall” | “kernel.shmmax” | “kernel.shmmni” | “kernel.shm_rmid_forced”, and Sysctls that start with “fs.mqueue." Valid network namespace values: Sysctls that start with “net." All of these values are supported by Fargate.
  • ulimits
    Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
    Provider name: ulimits
    Description: A list of ulimits to set in the container. If a ulimit value is specified in a task definition, it overrides the default values set by Docker. This parameter maps to Ulimits in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the –ulimit option to docker run. Valid naming values are displayed in the Ulimit data type. Amazon ECS tasks hosted on Fargate use the default resource limit values set by the operating system with the exception of the nofile resource limit parameter which Fargate overrides. The nofile resource limit sets a restriction on the number of open files that a container can use. The default nofile soft limit is 1024 and the default hard limit is 65535. This parameter requires version 1.18 of the Docker Remote API or greater on your container instance. To check the Docker Remote API version on your container instance, log in to your container instance and run the following command: sudo docker version –format ‘{{.Server.APIVersion}}’ This parameter is not supported for Windows containers.

execution_role_arn

Type: STRING
Provider name: executionRoleArn
Description: The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the task execution role that grants the Amazon ECS container agent permission to make Amazon Web Services API calls on your behalf. The task execution IAM role is required depending on the requirements of your task. For more information, see Amazon ECS task execution IAM role in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

family

Type: STRING
Provider name: family
Description: The name of a family that this task definition is registered to. Up to 255 characters are allowed. Letters (both uppercase and lowercase letters), numbers, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed. A family groups multiple versions of a task definition. Amazon ECS gives the first task definition that you registered to a family a revision number of 1. Amazon ECS gives sequential revision numbers to each task definition that you add.

inference_accelerators

Type: UNORDERED_LIST_STRUCT
Provider name: inferenceAccelerators
Description: The Elastic Inference accelerator that’s associated with the task.

  • device_name
    Type: STRING
    Provider name: deviceName

  • device_type
    Type: STRING
    Provider name: deviceType
    Description: The Elastic Inference accelerator type to use.

ipc_mode

Type: STRING
Provider name: ipcMode
Description: The IPC resource namespace to use for the containers in the task. The valid values are host, task, or none. If host is specified, then all containers within the tasks that specified the host IPC mode on the same container instance share the same IPC resources with the host Amazon EC2 instance. If task is specified, all containers within the specified task share the same IPC resources. If none is specified, then IPC resources within the containers of a task are private and not shared with other containers in a task or on the container instance. If no value is specified, then the IPC resource namespace sharing depends on the Docker daemon setting on the container instance. For more information, see IPC settings in the Docker run reference. If the host IPC mode is used, be aware that there is a heightened risk of undesired IPC namespace expose. For more information, see Docker security. If you are setting namespaced kernel parameters using systemControls for the containers in the task, the following will apply to your IPC resource namespace. For more information, see System Controls in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

  • For tasks that use the host IPC mode, IPC namespace related systemControls are not supported.
  • For tasks that use the task IPC mode, IPC namespace related systemControls will apply to all containers within a task.
This parameter is not supported for Windows containers or tasks run on Fargate.

memory

Type: STRING
Provider name: memory
Description: The amount (in MiB) of memory used by the task. If your tasks runs on Amazon EC2 instances, you must specify either a task-level memory value or a container-level memory value. This field is optional and any value can be used. If a task-level memory value is specified, the container-level memory value is optional. For more information regarding container-level memory and memory reservation, see ContainerDefinition. If your tasks runs on Fargate, this field is required. You must use one of the following values. The value you choose determines your range of valid values for the cpu parameter.

  • 512 (0.5 GB), 1024 (1 GB), 2048 (2 GB) - Available cpu values: 256 (.25 vCPU)
  • 1024 (1 GB), 2048 (2 GB), 3072 (3 GB), 4096 (4 GB) - Available cpu values: 512 (.5 vCPU)
  • 2048 (2 GB), 3072 (3 GB), 4096 (4 GB), 5120 (5 GB), 6144 (6 GB), 7168 (7 GB), 8192 (8 GB) - Available cpu values: 1024 (1 vCPU)
  • Between 4096 (4 GB) and 16384 (16 GB) in increments of 1024 (1 GB) - Available cpu values: 2048 (2 vCPU)
  • Between 8192 (8 GB) and 30720 (30 GB) in increments of 1024 (1 GB) - Available cpu values: 4096 (4 vCPU)
  • Between 16 GB and 60 GB in 4 GB increments - Available cpu values: 8192 (8 vCPU) This option requires Linux platform 1.4.0 or later.
  • Between 32GB and 120 GB in 8 GB increments - Available cpu values: 16384 (16 vCPU) This option requires Linux platform 1.4.0 or later.

network_mode

Type: STRING
Provider name: networkMode
Description: The Docker networking mode to use for the containers in the task. The valid values are none, bridge, awsvpc, and host. If no network mode is specified, the default is bridge. For Amazon ECS tasks on Fargate, the awsvpc network mode is required. For Amazon ECS tasks on Amazon EC2 Linux instances, any network mode can be used. For Amazon ECS tasks on Amazon EC2 Windows instances, <default> or awsvpc can be used. If the network mode is set to none, you cannot specify port mappings in your container definitions, and the tasks containers do not have external connectivity. The host and awsvpc network modes offer the highest networking performance for containers because they use the EC2 network stack instead of the virtualized network stack provided by the bridge mode. With the host and awsvpc network modes, exposed container ports are mapped directly to the corresponding host port (for the host network mode) or the attached elastic network interface port (for the awsvpc network mode), so you cannot take advantage of dynamic host port mappings. When using the host network mode, you should not run containers using the root user (UID 0). It is considered best practice to use a non-root user. If the network mode is awsvpc, the task is allocated an elastic network interface, and you must specify a NetworkConfiguration value when you create a service or run a task with the task definition. For more information, see Task Networking in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. If the network mode is host, you cannot run multiple instantiations of the same task on a single container instance when port mappings are used. For more information, see Network settings in the Docker run reference.

pid_mode

Type: STRING
Provider name: pidMode
Description: The process namespace to use for the containers in the task. The valid values are host or task. On Fargate for Linux containers, the only valid value is task. For example, monitoring sidecars might need pidMode to access information about other containers running in the same task. If host is specified, all containers within the tasks that specified the host PID mode on the same container instance share the same process namespace with the host Amazon EC2 instance. If task is specified, all containers within the specified task share the same process namespace. If no value is specified, the default is a private namespace for each container. For more information, see PID settings in the Docker run reference. If the host PID mode is used, there’s a heightened risk of undesired process namespace exposure. For more information, see Docker security. This parameter is not supported for Windows containers. This parameter is only supported for tasks that are hosted on Fargate if the tasks are using platform version 1.4.0 or later (Linux). This isn’t supported for Windows containers on Fargate.

  • host
    Type: STRUCT
    Provider name: host
    Description: This parameter is specified when you use bind mount host volumes. The contents of the host parameter determine whether your bind mount host volume persists on the host container instance and where it’s stored. If the host parameter is empty, then the Docker daemon assigns a host path for your data volume. However, the data isn’t guaranteed to persist after the containers that are associated with it stop running. Windows containers can mount whole directories on the same drive as $env:ProgramData. Windows containers can’t mount directories on a different drive, and mount point can’t be across drives. For example, you can mount C:\my\path:C:\my\path and D::D:</code>, but not D:\my\path:C:\my\path or D::C:\my\path.
    • source_path
      Type: STRING
      Provider name: sourcePath
      Description: When the host parameter is used, specify a sourcePath to declare the path on the host container instance that’s presented to the container. If this parameter is empty, then the Docker daemon has assigned a host path for you. If the host parameter contains a sourcePath file location, then the data volume persists at the specified location on the host container instance until you delete it manually. If the sourcePath value doesn’t exist on the host container instance, the Docker daemon creates it. If the location does exist, the contents of the source path folder are exported. If you’re using the Fargate launch type, the sourcePath parameter is not supported.
  • name
