If you need to change the specifications of ECS instances in an AS group, changing the AS configuration used by the AS group is an easy way to help you get there.
After you change the AS configuration for an AS group, the new AS configuration will not be used until any ongoing scaling actions are complete.
For example, if there is a scaling action ongoing for an AS group, and you change the AS configuration of the AS group from as-config-A to as-config-B, as-config-A is still used for the instances that are being added in the ongoing scaling action.
as-config-B will take effect in the next scaling action.
You can also locate the row containing the target AS group and choose More > Change Configuration in the Operation column.
