Scale Fleet Capacity

with Amazon GameLift · IT Infrastructure Management

Verify a fleet is ACTIVE, update its capacity, and read back fleet capacity.

  1. Describe the fleet's attributes and confirm it is in ACTIVE status before adjusting capacity.
  2. Update the fleet's desired, minimum, and maximum instance counts for the target location.
  3. Retrieve the fleet's capacity settings to confirm the new desired, minimum, and maximum instance counts took effect.
What you'll need to have ready
  • fleetId: The fleet ID or ARN to scale.
  • desiredInstances: The number of EC2 instances to maintain in the fleet location.
  • minSize: The minimum number of instances allowed in the fleet location.
  • maxSize: The maximum number of instances allowed in the fleet location.
  • location: Optional remote location to scale, as an AWS Region code such as us-west-2.
