This parameter is only required if you are using a load balancer with your service. 45 * `deployment_maximum_percent` - (Optional) The upper limit (as a percentage of the service's desiredCount) of the number of running tasks that can be running in a service during a deployment. 46 * `deployment_minimum_healthy_percent` - (Optional) The lower limit (as a percentage of the service's desiredCount) of the number of running tasks that must remain running and healthy in a service during a deployment. 47 * `load_balancer` - (Optional) A load balancer block. Load balancers documented below. 48 49 -> **Note:** As a result of AWS limitation a single `load_balancer` can be attached to the ECS service at most. See [related docs](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/service-load-balancing.html#load-balancing-concepts). 50 51 Load balancers support the following: 52 53 * `elb_name` - (Required) The name of the load balancer. 54 * `container_name` - (Required) The name of the container to associate with the load balancer (as it appears in a container definition). 55 * `container_port` - (Required) The port on the container to associate with the load balancer. 56 57 58 ## Attributes Reference 59 60 The following attributes are exported: 61 62 * `id` - The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that identifies the service 63 * `name` - The name of the service 64 * `cluster` - The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of cluster which the service runs on 65 * `iam_role` - The ARN of IAM role used for ELB 66 * `desired_count` - The number of instances of the task definition
