#run_instance(options = {}) ⇒ Instance or Array

Runs a single instance of this image.

Parameters:

  • options (Hash) (defaults to: {})

Options Hash (options):

  • :count (Object) —

    How many instances to request. By default one instance is requested. You can specify this either as an integer or as a Range, to indicate the minimum and maximum number of instances to run. Note that for a new account you can request at most 20 instances at once.

  • :block_device_mappings (Hash) —

    This must be a hash; the keys are device names to map, and the value for each entry determines how that device is mapped. Valid values include:

    • A string, which is interpreted as a virtual device name.

    • The symbol :no_device, which overrides the default mapping for a device so that it is not mapped to anything.

    • A hash with any of the following options. One of :snapshot, :snapshot_id or :volume_size is required.

      :snapshot

      A snapshot to use when creating the block device.

      :snapshot_id

      The ID of a snapshot to use when creating the block device.

      :volume_size

      The size of volume to create, in gigabytes.

      :delete_on_termination

      Setting this to true causes EC2 to delete the volume when the instance is terminated.

  • :monitoring (Boolean) —

    Setting this to true enables CloudWatch monitoring on the instances once they are started.

  • :availability_zone (String) —

    Specifies the availability zone where the instance should run. Without this option, EC2 will choose an availability zone for you.

  • :image_id (String) —

    ID of the AMI you want to launch.

  • :key_name (String) —

    The name of the key pair to use. Note: Launching public images without a key pair ID will leave them inaccessible.

  • :security_groups (Array) —

    Security groups are used to determine network access rules for the instances.

    :security_groups can be a single value or an array of values. Values should be group name strings or SecurityGroup objects.

  • :security_group_ids (Array<String>) —

    Security groups are used to determine network access rules for the instances.

    :security_group_ids accepts a single ID or an array of security group IDs.

  • :user_data (String) —

    Arbitrary user data. You do not need to encode this value.

  • :instance_type (String) —

    The type of instance to launch, for example “m1.small”.

  • :kernel_id (String) —

    The ID of the kernel with which to launch the instance.

  • :ramdisk_id (String) —

    The ID of the RAM disk to select. Some kernels require additional drivers at launch. Check the kernel requirements for information on whether you need to specify a RAM disk. To find kernel requirements, refer to the Resource Center and search for the kernel ID.

  • :disable_api_termination (Boolean) —

    Specifies whether you can terminate the instance using the EC2 API. A value of true means you can’t terminate the instance using the API (i.e., the instance is “locked”); a value of false means you can. If you set this to true, and you later want to terminate the instance, you must first enable API termination. For example:

    i = ec2.instances.create(:image_id => "ami-8c1fece5",
                         :disable_api_termination => true)
i.api_termination_disabled?        # => true
i.terminate                        # raises an exception
i.api_termination_disabled = false
i.terminate                        # terminates the instance
  • :instance_initiated_shutdown_behavior (String) —

    Determines whether the instance stops or terminates on instance-initiated shutdown.

  • :subnet (Subnet, String) — default: nil —

    The VPC Subnet (or subnet id string) to launch the instance in.

  • :private_ip_address (String) — default: nil —

    If you’re using VPC, you can optionally use this option to assign the instance a specific available IP address from the subnet (e.g., ‘10.0.0.25’). This option is not valid for instances launched outside a VPC (i.e. those launched without the :subnet option).

  • :dedicated_tenancy (Boolean) — default: false —

    Instances with dedicated tenancy will not share physical hardware with instances outside their VPC. NOTE: Dedicated tenancy incurs an additional service charge. This option is not valid for instances launched outside a VPC (e.g. those launched without the :subnet option).

Returns:

  • (Instance or Array) —

    If a single instance is being created, this returns an AWS::EC2::Instance to represent the newly created instance. Otherwise it returns an array of instance objects.
