Updates an elastic container instance.

Description

  • You can update only elastic container instances that are in the Pending or Running state. After you call this operation to update an elastic container instance, the instance enters the Updating state.
  • The configurations of elastic container instances cannot be changed. However, you can change the configurations of the individual containers within the instance as long as the change does not affect instance specifications.
  • You cannot update elastic container instances that were created before 15:00:00 on March 7, 2019.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.

Parameters

Container and InitContainer parameters

The Container and InitContainer parameters support only full updates. After you update the InitContainer parameters, you must restart the elastic container instance.

You can update the containers of an elastic container instance in one of the following ways:

  • The elastic container instance contains both init and non-init containers, and you update only the init containers.
  • The elastic container instance contains both init and non-init containers, and you update only the non-init containers.
  • The elastic container instance contains both init and non-init containers, and you update both the init and non-init containers.
  • The elastic container instance contains only non-init containers, and you update these non-init containers.
  • The elastic container instance contains only non-init containers, and you add init containers.
  • The elastic container instance contains only non-init containers, and you add init containers and update the non-init containers.
ImageRegistryCredential parameters
  • ImageRegistryCredential parameters support only full updates.
  • If only ImageRegistryCredential parameters are updated, and the updated number of ImageRegistryCredential parameters is not greater than the previous number, you do not need to restart the elastic container instance. Otherwise, you must restart the elastic container instance.
Note Full update: For a parameter of the List type, you must specify all the items contained in the parameter value even if you want to update only some of the items. For a parameter of the struct type, you must specify all the members if you want to update only some of the members.
