########## Amazon AWS ########## Deploy VM --------- Deploy VyOS on Amazon :abbr:`AWS (Amazon Web Services)` 1. Click to ``Instances`` and ``Launch Instance`` .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-01.png 2. On the marketplace search "VyOS" .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-02.png 3. Choose the instance type. Minimum recommendation start from ``m3.medium`` .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-03.png 4. Configure instance for your requirements. Select number of instances / network / subnet .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-04.png 5. Additional storage. You can remove additional storage ``/dev/sdb``. First root device will be ``/dev/xvda``. You can skeep this step. .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-05.png 6. Configure Security Group. It's recommended that you configure ssh access only from certain address sources. Or permit any (by default). .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-06.png 7. Select SSH key pair and click ``Launch Instances`` .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-07.png 8. Find out your public IP address. .. figure:: /_static/images/cloud-aws-08.png 9. Connect to the instance by SSH key. .. code-block:: none ssh -i ~/.ssh/amazon.pem vyos@203.0.113.3 vyos@ip-192-0-2-10:~$ Amazon CloudWatch Agent Usage ----------------------------- To use Amazon CloudWatch Agent, configure it within the Amazon SSM Parameter Store. If you don't have a configuration yet, do :ref:`configuration_creation`. 1. Create an :abbr:`IAM (Identity and Access Management)` role for the :abbr:`EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud)` instance to access CloudWatch service, and name it CloudWatchAgentServerRole. The role should contain two default policies: CloudWatchAgentServerPolicy and AmazonSSMManagedInstanceCore. 2. Attach the created role to your VyOS :abbr:`EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud)` instance. 3. Ensure that amazon-cloudwatch-agent package is installed. .. code-block:: none $ sudo apt list --installed | grep amazon-cloudwatch-agent .. note:: The amazon-cloudwatch-agent package is normally included in VyOS 1.3.3+ and 1.4+ 3. Retreive an existing CloudWatch Agent configuration from the :abbr:`SSM (Systems Manager)` Parameter Store. .. code-block:: none $ sudo /opt/aws/amazon-cloudwatch-agent/bin/amazon-cloudwatch-agent-ctl -a fetch-config -m ec2 -s -c ssm:<your-configuration-name> This step also enables systemd service and runs it. .. note:: The VyOS platform-specific scripts feature is under development. Thus, this step should be repeated manually after changing system image (:doc:`/installation/update`) .. _configuration_creation: CloudWatch SSM Configuration creation ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Creating the Amazon Cloudwatch Agent Configuration in Amazon :abbr:`SSM (Systems Manager)` Parameter Store. 1. Create an :abbr:`IAM (Identity and Access Management)` role for your :abbr:`EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud)` instance to access the CloudWatch service. Name it CloudWatchAgentAdminRole. The role should contain at two default policies: CloudWatchAgentAdminPolicy and AmazonSSMManagedInstanceCore. .. note:: CloudWatchAgentServerRole is too permisive and should be used for single configuration creation and deployment. That's why after completion of step #3 higly recommended to replace instance CloudWatchAgentAdminRole role with CloudWatchAgentServerRole. 2. Run Cloudwatch configuration wizard. .. code-block:: none $ sudo /opt/aws/amazon-cloudwatch-agent/bin/amazon-cloudwatch-agent-config-wizard 3. When prompted, answer "yes" to the question "Do you want to store the config in the SSM parameter store?".
