describeCompute

Retrieves properties for a specific compute resource in an Amazon GameLift Servers fleet. You can list all computes in a fleet by calling ListCompute.

Request options

Provide the fleet ID and compute name. The compute name varies depending on the type of fleet.

  • For a compute in a managed EC2 fleet, provide an instance ID. Each instance in the fleet is a compute.

  • For a compute in a managed container fleet, provide a compute name. In a container fleet, each game server container group on a fleet instance is assigned a compute name.

  • For a compute in an Anywhere fleet, provide a registered compute name. Anywhere fleet computes are created when you register a hosting resource with the fleet.

Results

If successful, this operation returns details for the requested compute resource. Depending on the fleet's compute type, the result includes the following information:

  • For a managed EC2 fleet, this operation returns information about the EC2 instance.

  • For an Anywhere fleet, this operation returns information about the registered compute.
