SYNTAX

Add-VSServiceDiscoveryServiceHealthCheckCustomConfig [[-FailureThreshold] <Object>] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Adds an AWS::ServiceDiscovery::Service.HealthCheckCustomConfig resource property to the template. A complex type that contains information about an optional custom health check. A custom health check, which requires that you use a third-party health checker to evaluate the health of your resources, is useful in the following circumstances:

  • You can’t use a health check that is defined by HealthCheckConfig because the resource isn’t available over the internet. For example, you can use a custom health check when the instance is in an Amazon VPC. (To check the health of resources in a VPC, the health checker must also be in the VPC.

  • You want to use a third-party health checker regardless of where your resources are.

Important

If you specify a health check configuration, you can specify either HealthCheckCustomConfig or HealthCheckConfig but not both.

To change the status of a custom health check, submit an UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus request. AWS Cloud Map doesn’t monitor the status of the resource, it just keeps a record of the status specified in the most recent UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus request.

Here’s how custom health checks work:

1. You create a service and specify a value for FailureThreshold.

The failure threshold indicates the number of 30-second intervals you want AWS Cloud Map to wait between the time that your application sends an UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloud-map/latest/api/API_UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus.html request and the time that AWS Cloud Map stops routing internet traffic to the corresponding resource.

1. You register an instance.

1. You configure a third-party health checker to monitor the resource that is associated with the new instance.

Note

AWS Cloud Map doesn’t check the health of the resource directly.

1. The third-party health-checker determines that the resource is unhealthy and notifies your application.

1. Your application submits an UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus request.

1. AWS Cloud Map waits for (FailureThreshold x 30 seconds.

1. If another UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus request doesn’t arrive during that time to change the status back to healthy, AWS Cloud Map stops routing traffic to the resource.

PARAMETERS

-FailureThreshold

The number of 30-second intervals that you want AWS Cloud Map to wait after receiving an UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus request before it changes the health status of a service instance. For example, suppose you specify a value of 2 for FailureTheshold, and then your application sends an UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus request. AWS Cloud Map waits for approximately 60 seconds 2 x 30 before changing the status of the service instance based on that request. Sending a second or subsequent UpdateInstanceCustomHealthStatus request with the same value before FailureThreshold x 30 seconds has passed doesn’t accelerate the change. AWS Cloud Map still waits FailureThreshold x 30 seconds after the first request to make the change.
