start-practice-run¶

Description¶

Start an on-demand practice run zonal shift in Amazon Application Recovery Controller. With zonal autoshift enabled, you can start an on-demand practice run to verify preparedness at any time. Amazon Web Services also runs automated practice runs about weekly when you have enabled zonal autoshift.

For more information, see Considerations when you configure zonal autoshift in the Amazon Application Recovery Controller Developer Guide.

Options¶

--resource-identifier (string)

The identifier for the resource that you want to start a practice run zonal shift for. The identifier is the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the resource.

--away-from (string)

The Availability Zone (for example, use1-az1 ) that traffic is shifted away from for the resource that you specify for the practice run.

--comment (string)

The initial comment that you enter about the practice run. Be aware that this comment can be overwritten by Amazon Web Services if the automatic check for balanced capacity fails. For more information, see Capacity checks for practice runs in the Amazon Application Recovery Controller Developer Guide.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options¶

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

json
text
table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

on
off
auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--v2-debug (boolean)

Enable AWS CLI v2 migration assistance. Prints warnings if the command would face a breaking change after swapping AWS CLI v1 for AWS CLI v2 in the current environment. Prints one warning for each breaking change detected.
