If you exceed your maximum limit of Auto Scaling groups, which by default is 20 per region, the call fails. For information about viewing and updating this limit, see DescribeAccountLimits .
For more information, see Auto Scaling Groups in the Auto Scaling Developer Guide .
Request Syntax

string
The ID of the EC2 instance used to create a launch configuration for the group. Alternatively, use the LaunchConfigurationName parameter to specify a launch configuration instead of an EC2 instance.
When you specify an ID of an instance, Auto Scaling creates a new launch configuration and associates it with the group. This launch configuration derives its attributes from the specified instance, with the exception of the block device mapping.

{'NewInstancesProtectedFromScaleIn': 'boolean'}
Updates the configuration for the specified Auto Scaling group.
To update an Auto Scaling group with a launch configuration with InstanceMonitoring set to False , you must first disable the collection of group metrics. Otherwise, you will get an error. If you have previously enabled the collection of group metrics, you can disable it using DisableMetricsCollection .
The new settings are registered upon the completion of this call. Any launch configuration settings take effect on any triggers after this call returns. Scaling activities that are currently in progress aren't affected.
Note the following:
If you specify a new value for MinSize without specifying a value for DesiredCapacity , and the new MinSize is larger than the current size of the group, we implicitly call SetDesiredCapacity to set the size of the group to the new value of MinSize .
If you specify a new value for MaxSize without specifying a value for DesiredCapacity , and the new MaxSize is smaller than the current size of the group, we implicitly call SetDesiredCapacity to set the size of the group to the new value of MaxSize .
All other optional parameters are left unchanged if not specified.
