Creates a fleet of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud) instances to host your custom game server or Realtime Servers. Use this operation to configure the computing resources for your fleet and provide instructions for running game servers on each instance.
Most GameLift fleets can deploy instances to multiple locations, including the home Region (where the fleet is created) and an optional set of remote locations. Fleets that are created in the following Amazon Web Services Regions support multiple locations: us-east-1 (N. Virginia), us-west-2 (Oregon), eu-central-1 (Frankfurt), eu-west-1 (Ireland), ap-southeast-2 (Sydney), ap-northeast-1 (Tokyo), and ap-northeast-2 (Seoul). Fleets that are created in other GameLift Regions can deploy instances in the fleet's home Region only. All fleet instances use the same configuration regardless of location; however, you can adjust capacity settings and turn auto-scaling on/off for each location.
To create a fleet, choose the hardware for your instances, specify a game server build or Realtime script to deploy, and provide a runtime configuration to direct GameLift how to start and run game servers on each instance in the fleet. Set permissions for inbound traffic to your game servers, and enable optional features as needed. When creating a multi-location fleet, provide a list of additional remote locations.
If you need to debug your fleet, fetch logs, view performance metrics or other actions on the fleet, create the development fleet with port 22/3389 open. As a best practice, we recommend opening ports for remote access only when you need them and closing them when you're finished.
If successful, this operation creates a new Fleet resource and places it in NEW status, which prompts GameLift to initiate the fleet creation workflow . You can track fleet creation by checking fleet status using DescribeFleetAttributes and DescribeFleetLocationAttributes /, or by monitoring fleet creation events using DescribeFleetEvents . As soon as the fleet status changes to ACTIVE , you can enable automatic scaling for the fleet with PutScalingPolicy and set capacity for the home Region with UpdateFleetCapacity . When the status of each remote location reaches ACTIVE , you can set capacity by location using UpdateFleetCapacity .

FullProtection - Game sessions in ACTIVE status cannot be terminated during a scale-down event.
dict
Instructions for how to launch and maintain server processes on instances in the fleet. The runtime configuration defines one or more server process configurations, each identifying a build executable or Realtime script file and the number of processes of that type to run concurrently.
Note
The RuntimeConfiguration parameter is required unless the fleet is being configured using the older parameters ServerLaunchPath and ServerLaunchParameters , which are still supported for backward compatibility.
ServerProcesses (list) --
A collection of server process configurations that identify what server processes to run on each instance in a fleet.
(dict) --
A set of instructions for launching server processes on each instance in a fleet. Server processes run either an executable in a custom game build or a Realtime Servers script. Server process configurations are part of a fleet's RuntimeConfiguration .
LaunchPath (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The location of a game build executable or the Realtime script file that contains the Init() function. Game builds and Realtime scripts are installed on instances at the root:
Windows (custom game builds only): C:\game . Example: "C:\game\MyGame\server.exe "

string
A unique identifier for an IAM role that manages access to your Amazon Web Services services. With an instance role ARN set, any application that runs on an instance in this fleet can assume the role, including install scripts, server processes, and daemons (background processes). Create a role or look up a role's ARN by using the IAM dashboard in the Amazon Web Services Management Console. Learn more about using on-box credentials for your game servers at Access external resources from a game server . This property cannot be changed after the fleet is created.
dict
Prompts GameLift to generate a TLS/SSL certificate for the fleet. TLS certificates are used for encrypting traffic between game clients and the game servers that are running on GameLift. By default, the CertificateConfiguration is set to DISABLED . This property cannot be changed after the fleet is created.
Note: This feature requires the Amazon Web Services Certificate Manager (ACM) service, which is not available in all Amazon Web Services regions. When working in a region that does not support this feature, a fleet creation request with certificate generation fails with a 4xx error.
CertificateType (string) -- [REQUIRED]
Indicates whether a TLS/SSL certificate is generated for a fleet.
Valid values include:
GENERATED - Generate a TLS/SSL certificate for this fleet.
DISABLED - (default) Do not generate a TLS/SSL certificate for this fleet.
list
A set of remote locations to deploy additional instances to and manage as part of the fleet. This parameter can only be used when creating fleets in Amazon Web Services Regions that support multiple locations. You can add any GameLift-supported Amazon Web Services Region as a remote location, in the form of an Amazon Web Services Region code such as us-west-2 . To create a fleet with instances in the home Region only, omit this parameter.
(dict) --
A remote location where a multi-location fleet can deploy EC2 instances for game hosting.

Retrieves the instance limits and current utilization for an Amazon Web Services Region or location. Instance limits control the number of instances, per instance type, per location, that your Amazon Web Services account can use. Learn more at Amazon EC2 Instance Types . The information returned includes the maximum number of instances allowed and your account's current usage across all fleets. This information can affect your ability to scale your GameLift fleets. You can request a limit increase for your account by using the Service limits page in the GameLift console.
Instance limits differ based on whether the instances are deployed in a fleet's home Region or in a remote location. For remote locations, limits also differ based on the combination of home Region and remote location. All requests must specify an Amazon Web Services Region (either explicitly or as your default settings). To get the limit for a remote location, you must also specify the location. For example, the following requests all return different results:
Request specifies the Region ap-northeast-1 with no location. The result is limits and usage data on all instance types that are deployed in us-east-2 , by all of the fleets that reside in ap-northeast-1 .
Request specifies the Region us-east-1 with location ca-central-1 . The result is limits and usage data on all instance types that are deployed in ca-central-1 , by all of the fleets that reside in us-east-2 . These limits do not affect fleets in any other Regions that deploy instances to ca-central-1 .
Request specifies the Region eu-west-1 with location ca-central-1 . The result is limits and usage data on all instance types that are deployed in ca-central-1 , by all of the fleets that reside in eu-west-1 .
This operation can be used in the following ways:
To get limit and usage data for all instance types that are deployed in an Amazon Web Services Region by fleets that reside in the same Region: Specify the Region only. Optionally, specify a single instance type to retrieve information for.
To get limit and usage data for all instance types that are deployed to a remote location by fleets that reside in different Amazon Web Services Region: Provide both the Amazon Web Services Region and the remote location. Optionally, specify a single instance type to retrieve information for.
If successful, an EC2InstanceLimits object is returned with limits and usage data for each requested instance type.

Retrieves the resource capacity settings for one or more fleets. The data returned includes the current fleet capacity (number of EC2 instances), and settings that can control how capacity scaling. For fleets with remote locations, this operation retrieves data for the fleet's home Region only. See DescribeFleetLocationCapacity to get capacity settings for a fleet's remote locations.
This operation can be used in the following ways:
To get capacity data for one or more specific fleets, provide a list of fleet IDs or fleet ARNs.
To get capacity data for all fleets, do not provide a fleet identifier.
When requesting multiple fleets, use the pagination parameters to retrieve results as a set of sequential pages.
If successful, a FleetCapacity object is returned for each requested fleet ID. Each FleetCapacity object includes a Location property, which is set to the fleet's home Region. When a list of fleet IDs is provided, attribute objects are returned only for fleets that currently exist.
Note
Some API operations may limit the number of fleet IDs that are allowed in one request. If a request exceeds this limit, the request fails and the error message includes the maximum allowed.

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN ) that is assigned to a GameLift fleet resource and uniquely identifies it. ARNs are unique across all Regions. Format is arn:aws:gamelift:<region>::fleet/fleet-a1234567-b8c9-0d1e-2fa3-b45c6d7e8912 .
InstanceId (string) --
A unique identifier for the instance.
IpAddress (string) --
IP address that is assigned to the instance.
DnsName (string) --
The DNS identifier assigned to the instance that is running the game session. Values have the following format:
TLS-enabled fleets: <unique identifier>.<region identifier>.amazongamelift.com .
Non-TLS-enabled fleets: ec2-<unique identifier>.compute.amazonaws.com . (See Amazon EC2 Instance IP Addressing .)
When connecting to a game session that is running on a TLS-enabled fleet, you must use the DNS name, not the IP address.
OperatingSystem (string) --
Operating system that is running on this instance.
Type (string) --
Amazon EC2 instance type that defines the computing resources of this instance.
Status (string) --
Current status of the instance. Possible statuses include the following:
PENDING -- The instance is in the process of being created and launching server processes as defined in the fleet's run-time configuration.
ACTIVE -- The instance has been successfully created and at least one server process has successfully launched and reported back to GameLift that it is ready to host a game session. The instance is now considered ready to host game sessions.
TERMINATING -- The instance is in the process of shutting down. This may happen to reduce capacity during a scaling down event or to recycle resources in the event of a problem.
CreationTime (datetime) --
A time stamp indicating when this data object was created. Format is a number expressed in Unix time as milliseconds (for example "1469498468.057" ).
Location (string) --
The fleet location of the instance, expressed as an Amazon Web Services Region code, such as us-west-2 .
