Ever wondered what CloudForms can do for you in AWS? The next few blog posts will walk you through step by step how to upload the CloudForms image to AWS, how to assign the correct policies and roles and how to configure it correctly so it can discover your environment. Part 1 is dedicated to the import and configuration of the CloudForms image.<\/p>\n

With the release of CloudForms <\/strong>4.6 you also have the ability to scan instances in AWS. These blog series will show you how this can be achieved: <\/span><\/p>\n

First, go to the AWS console and launch a free tier amazon AMI. We are doing this because it already has the aws cli tools installed.<\/span>\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

In the ec2 web console attach the admin IAM role for this instance (you can delete the instance after setup)<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This will open the following window. <\/span><\/p>\n

Assign the admin role and apply. <\/span><\/p>\n

Your instance should be up by now. Go and ssh into it (don’t worry my private key was a one time key). <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

ssh -i \"ldombprivate.pem\" ec2-user@ec2-54-160-180-77.compute-1.amazonaws.com\r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
The next step will be to configure the cli for the correct region. As we assigned an IAM role you won\u2019t need to add any credentials. <\/span><\/p>\n
[ec2-user@ip-172-31-14-85 ~]$ aws configure\r\n\r\nAWS Access Key ID [None]:\r\n\r\nAWS Secret Access Key [None]:\r\n\r\nDefault region name [None]: us-east-1\r\n\r\nDefault output format [None]:<\/pre>\n
Login into the Red Hat Portal and get the Amazon VHD<\/span><\/p>\n
wget \"https:\/\/access.cdn.redhat.com\/\/content\/origin\/files\/sha256\/18\/18d7f11b2163f4cd894f4683394d9723102342a73212c68e97461469788b72e9\/cfme-ec2-5.9.0.22-1.x86_64.vhd?_auth_=1520802709_a5f94e34e15f6b286e4a129392c06c44\" -O cfme-ec2-5.9.0.22-1.x86_64.vhd<\/pre>\n
The next step is to create an S3 bucket where we can upload the VHD to later be converted into an ami<\/span><\/p>\n
[ec2-user@ip-172-31-14-85 ~]$\u00a0aws s3 mb s3:\/\/awscfme59<\/pre>\n
Before we copy any file it’s important to understand that S3 does not have a private endpoint. Thus you would copy the vhd via the internet. If you want to speed things up you can go to your VPC and create an s3 endpoint. This will speed up the upload of the VHD to the s3 bucket. <\/span><\/p>\n
Lets copy the <\/span>cfme-ec2-5.9.0.22-1.x86_64.vhd to the s3 bucket. If you enabled the endpoint you should see speeds like the following:<\/span><\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Once completed you will see the following: <\/span><\/p>\n
[ec2-user@ip-172-31-14-85 ~]$ aws s3 cp cfme-ec2-5.9.0.22-1.x86_64.vhd s3:\/\/awscfme59\/\r\n\r\nupload: .\/cfme-ec2-5.9.0.22-1.x86_64.vhd to s3:\/\/awscfme59\/cfme-ec2-5.9.0.22-1.x86_64.vhd<\/pre>\n
If you have never imported a VM in aws you will need to add the following VM import trust policy. Create a file named <\/span>vm-import.json with the following content: <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can also delete the file we uploaded to s3 to save costs<\/span><\/p>\n

Once the ami\u00a0is done copying you will see the status to available.\u00a0You are now ready to launch the CFME instance. For instance type choose t2.xlarge.
