 ** jobExecutionTimeoutMinutes **   <a name="Batch-Type-UpdatePolicy-jobExecutionTimeoutMinutes"></a>
Specifies the job timeout (in minutes) when the compute environment infrastructure is updated. The default value is 30. The maximum value is 7200.  
Increasing `jobExecutionTimeoutMinutes` during infrastructure updates delays the replacement of instances with new instances that include updates such as security patches, but provides more time for jobs to execute. Consider the security implications of this tradeoff when setting timeout values.
Type: Long  
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 7200.

 ** terminateJobsOnUpdate **   <a name="Batch-Type-UpdatePolicy-terminateJobsOnUpdate"></a>
Specifies whether jobs are automatically terminated when the compute environment infrastructure is updated. The default value is `false`.
