You can make any AWS image selectable in an OS profile.

Avant de commencer

Role required: sn_cmp.cloud_admin

Procédure

1. In the AWS console, select the EC2 service and then click IMAGES > AMIs.

   

2. Filter the list of images and then take note of the AMI Name and AMI ID values for the image of interest.
3. On the instance, enter cmdb_ci_os_template.list in the Filter navigator text box to open the Images [cmdb_ci_os_template] table and then click New.
4. On the Image form, enter the following values:

   Field	Value
   Object ID	AMI ID value from AWS.
   Name	Meaningful name that is based on the AMI Name value from AWS.
   Guest OS	Operating system.

5. On the Credentials field, click the magnifying glass and then click New on the Credentials page.
6. In the list, click Basic Auth Credentials.
7. On the Basic Auth Credentials form, enter a meaningful Name for the credential.
8. Enter a User name to use for instances that are provisioned from this image.

   AWS uses SSH keys, so a password is not required.

   Remarque :

   If the name ec2-user or root does not work, check with your AMI provider.

9. Click Submit to close the Basic Auth Credentials form.

    In the Related Items list, you can see that the image is associated with the specified datacenter.
