## DESCRIPTION

Create a new auto-scaling group

### positional arguments:

- ASGROUP

  name of the new auto-scaling group (required)

### optional arguments:

- **-l** LAUNCHCONFIG, **--launch-configuration** LAUNCHCONFIG

  name of the launch configuration to use with the new group (required)

- **-M** COUNT, **--max-size** COUNT

  maximum group size (required)

- **-m** COUNT, **--min-size** COUNT

  minimum group size (required)

- **--default-cooldown** SECONDS

  amount of time, in seconds, after a scaling activity completes before any further trigger-related scaling activities may start

- **--desired-capacity** COUNT

  number of running instances the group should contain

- **--grace-period** SECONDS

  number of seconds to wait before starting health checks on newly-created instances

- **--health-check-type** {EC2,ELB}

  service to obtain health check status from

- **--load-balancers** ELB1,ELB2,...

  comma-separated list of load balancers to use

- **--placement-group** PLACEMENTGROUP

  placement group in which to launch new instances

- **--tag** "k=VALUE, id=VALUE, t=VALUE, v=VALUE, p={true,false}"

  attributes of a tag to affect. Tags follow the following format: "id=resource-name, t=resource-type, k=tag-key, v=tag-val, p=propagate-at-launch-flag", where k is the tag's name, v is the tag's value, id is a resource ID, t is a resource type, and p is whether to propagate tags to instances created by the group. A value for 'k=' is required for each tag. The rest are optional. This argument may be used more than once. Each time affects a different tag.

- **--termination-policies** POLICY1,POLICY2,...

  ordered list of termination policies. The first has the highest precedence.

- **--vpc-zone-identifier** ZONE1,ZONE2,...

  comma-separated list of subnet identifiers. If you specify availability zones as well, ensure the subnets' availability zones match the ones you specified

- **-z** ZONE1,ZONE2,..., **--availability-zones** ZONE1,ZONE2,...

  comma-separated list of availability zones for the new group (required unless subnets are supplied)

- **-U** URL, **--url** URL

  auto-scaling service endpoint URL

- **--region** USER@REGION

  region and/or user names to search when looking up config file data

**-I** KEY\_ID, **--access-key-id** KEY\_ID

**-S** KEY, **--secret-key** KEY

**--security-token** TOKEN

- **--debug**

  show debugging output

- **--debugger**

  launch interactive debugger on error

- **--version**

  show the program's version and exit

- **-h**, **--help**
