Question: How can I find the BGP authorization key for my hosted virtual interface?

How can I find the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) authorization key for my hosted virtual interface?ResolutionNote: If you receive errors when running AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) commands, make sure that you’re using the most recent AWS CLI version.The BGP authorization key for a hosted virtual interface is available only from the AWS account that owns the physical connection.You can’t find the BGP authorization key for a hosted virtual interface using either of the following tools:The AWS Management ConsoleThe AWS CLI using the "describe-virtual-interfaces" commandWays to find the BGP authorization key for a hosted virtual interfaceDownload the hosted virtual interface configuration file from the AWS account that owns the physical connection. The configuration file contains the BGP authorization key.The AWS Direct Connect connection owner can find the BGP authorization key in the Direct Connect console. In the console, select the virtual interface, and then choose View details. The BGP authorization key is available on the Peering tab.Run the following command from the AWS account that owns the physical connection. Be sure to replace [your physical connection ID] with the ID of your physical connection.aws directconnect describe-virtual-interfaces --connection-id [your physical connection ID]If you have multiple virtual interfaces on a Direct Connect connection, you can find the information for a specific virtual interface with the following command. Be sure to replace [Virtual Interface ID] with the ID of your specific virtual interface.aws directconnect describe-virtual-interfaces --connection-id [your physical connection ID] --virtual-interface-id [Virtual Interface ID]Important: For security reasons, don't share your BGP authorization key with AWS Support or any unauthorized parties.
Question: How do I implement disaster recovery or fault tolerance for my Amazon ElastiCache Redis cluster?

I need to implement disaster recovery or fault tolerance for my Amazon ElastiCache Redis cluster data. What options are available?ResolutionThe available fault tolerance solutions each have their own balance of data durability, performance impact, and cost. Choose the one that best fits your use case:Multi-AZMulti-AZ is the best option when data retention, minimal downtime, and application performance are a priority.Data loss potential - Low. Multi-AZ provides fault tolerance for every scenario, including hardware-related issues.Performance impact - Low. Of the available options, Multi-AZ provides the fastest time to recovery, because there is no manual procedure to follow after the process is implemented.Cost - Low to high. Multi-AZ is the lowest-cost option. Use Multi-AZ when you can't risk losing data because of hardware failure or you can't afford the downtime required by other options in your response to an outage.For more information on Multi-AZ, see Minimizing downtime in ElastiCache for Redis with Multi-AZ.Daily automatic backupsYou can schedule daily automatic backups at a time when you expect low resource utilization for your cluster. ElastiCache creates a backup of the cluster, and then writes all data from the cache to a Redis RDB file. Redis versions 2.8.22 and later implement a forkless backup that can improve performance.Note: Redis backup and restore aren't supported on cache.t1.micro nodes for cluster mode disabled clusters.Data loss potential - High (up to a day’s worth). Daily automatic backups are retained for up to 35 days.Performance impact - Medium to high. Running multiple file backups throughout the day impacts performance. To improve performance, consider enabling RDB snapshots on a designated persistence only secondary node. Then, disable both RDB snapshots and Redis append-only file (AOF) on the primary node and all other secondary nodes.Cost - Low to medium. Storage costs increase with the number of backups and the data retention duration.Before implementing backup and restore, consider the limitations caused by backup constraints. For comprehensive information about implementing backups for ElastiCache clusters running Redis, see Backup and restore for ElastiCache for Redis. For more information, see Making manual backups.

Question: Why did I receive an "AccessDenied" or "Invalid information" error trying to assume a cross-account IAM role?

I tried to assume a cross-account AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) role. However, I received an error similar to the following:"An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the AssumeRole operation:"-or-"Invalid information in one or more fields. Check your information or contact your administrator."Short descriptionTo assume the IAM role in another AWS account, first edit the permissions in one account (the account that assumed the IAM role). Then, edit the trust policy in the other account (the account that allows the assumption of the IAM role).For example, suppose you have two accounts, one named Account_Bob and the other named Account _Alice. You also have an IAM user or role named Bob in Account_Bob, and an IAM role named Alice in Account_Alice. In this scenario, Bob will assume the IAM role that's named Alice.To use the AssumeRole API call with multiple accounts or cross-accounts, you must have a trust policy to grant permission to assume roles similar to the following:Here's the example of the permissions required for Bob:{  "Version": "2012-10-17",  "Statement": [    {      "Sid": "PermissionToAssumeAlice",      "Effect": "Allow",      "Action": "sts:AssumeRole",      "Resource": "arn:aws:iam::Account_Alice:role/Alice"    }  ]}And here's the example of the trust policy for Alice:{  "Version": "2012-10-17",  "Statement": [    {      "Effect": "Allow",      "Principal": {        "AWS": "arn:aws:iam::ACCOUNT_Bob:user/Bob"      },      "Action": "sts:AssumeRole"    }  ]}ResolutionTo avoid errors when assuming a cross-account IAM role, keep the following points in mind:Note: If you receive errors when running AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) commands, make sure that you’re using the most recent AWS CLI version.The assuming role, Bob, must have permissions for AssumeRole.You must be signed in to the AWS account as Bob. For more information, see your AWS account ID and its alias.The role being assumed, Alice, must exist. Make sure that it's not deleted and that the ARN is configured correctly.If you're using role chaining, make sure that you're not using IAM credentials from a previous session. For more information, see the role chaining section in roles terms and concepts.If Account_Bob is part of an AWS Organizations, there might be a service control policy (SCP) restricting AssumeRole access with Account_Bob or Account_Alice. For more information, see service control policies (SCPs).

Question: How do I use VM Import/Export to create an Amazon EC2 instance based on my on-premises server?

I want to create a copy of my on-premises server on AWS as an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance using VM Import.

ResolutionYou can use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) to run a VM Import/Export job. Then, a copy of your server is created as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) and uploaded to an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket. You can launch the AMI as an EC2 instance.Note: If you receive errors when running AWS CLI commands, make sure that you’re using the most recent version of the AWS CLI.For large-scale migrations, AWS Server Migration Service (SMS) automates the migration process. You can import on-premises virtual machines running on VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V/SCVMM, and Azure.Before getting started, do the following:Make sure that your VM meets all the VM import/export requirements.Review the supported Linux and Windows operating systems, image formats, licensing options, and limitations of VM Import/Export.If you sign in as an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user to use VM Import/Export, your policy have the required permissions.1.    Follow the guidelines in Required configuration for VM export.2.    Install the AWS CLI on an on-premises client and configure it with the AWS credentials generated for the VM import user.3.    Create a new S3 bucket in the same AWS Region where you plan to run your EC2 instance**.**4.    Create an IAM role named "vmimport" with the trust policy trust-policy.json that allows the VM import service to assume the role.{  "Version": "2012-10-17",  "Statement": [    {      "Effect": "Allow",      "Principal": {        "Service": "vmie.amazonaws.com"      },      "Action": "sts:AssumeRole",      "Condition": {        "StringEquals": {          "sts:Externalid": "vmimport"        }      }    }  ]}5.    Attach the following IAM policy named "vmimport" to the IAM role to grant permissions.Note: Replace disk-image-file-bucket with your S3 bucket name.{  "Version": "2012-10-17",  "Statement": [    {      "Effect": "Allow",      "Action": [        "s3:GetBucketLocation",        "s3:GetObject",        "s3:ListBucket"      ],      "Resource": [        "arn:aws:s3:::disk-image-file-bucket",        "arn:aws:s3:::disk-image-file-bucket/*"      ]    },    {      "Effect": "Allow",      "Action": [        "ec2:ModifySnapshotAttribute",        "ec2:CopySnapshot",        "ec2:RegisterImage",        "ec2:Describe*"      ],      "Resource": "*"    }  ]}6.    Upload the image to the S3 bucket with the tool of your choice.7.    From the client machine, run the AWS CLI command import-image.8.    To check the import task status, run the AWS CLI command describe-import-image-tasks.9.    After the image is imported as an AMI, follow the instructions for Launch an Instance using the old launch instance wizard. Or, follow the instructions for Launch an instance using the new launch instance wizard.

Question: How can I use DataSync to transfer data from an Amazon EFS file system to an Amazon S3 bucket?

I want to use AWS DataSync to transfer data from Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) to Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) without deploying the DataSync Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) agent.

ResolutionCreate a DataSync task with the EFS file system as the source location and the S3 bucket as the destination location:Open the AWS DataSync console.In the navigation pane, choose Tasks.Choose Create task.For Configure source location, select Create a new location.Under Configuration, for Location type, select Amazon EFS file system.For EFS File system, choose the EFS file system that you want to use as an endpoint. You configure this location as a source.For Mount path, enter the mount path for your EFS file system. The path can include a subdirectory in the EFS file system that's used to read data from the EFS source or write data to the EFS destination. By default, DataSync uses the root directory.Expand Additional settings.For Subnet and Security Group, a subnet that includes a mount target for your Amazon EFS file system and this subnet's default security group are selected by default. Note: DataSync uses the security group specified in this step to connect to your Amazon EFS file system. If the security group is configured to restrict connections from within itself, then you can do either of the following:Change the configuration to allow the security group to communicate within itself.-or-Choose a different subnet and security group.Choose Next.For Destination location options, select Create a new location.Under Configuration, for Location type, select Amazon S3 bucket.For S3 bucket, select the bucket that you want to use as an endpoint.For S3 storage class, choose the storage class that you want to use for the transferred files.For Folder, enter the S3 folder or prefix that you want to use for the data transfer. This is the folder that DataSync uses either to read data from for an S3 source location or write data to an S3 destination. You can also leave this field blank to copy the file into the root of the bucket.For IAM role, select a role that has permissions to access the S3 bucket. Or, choose Autogenerate for DataSync to automatically create a role with the required permissions. If DataSync previously created an IAM role for the S3 bucket, then that role is selected as the default.Note: For instructions on how to create an IAM role manually, see Manually configuring an IAM role to access your S3 bucket.Choose Next.For Configure settings, configure the task settings for your use case.Choose Next.Review the task settings. Then, choose Create task.After the task status becomes Available, you can start the task to transfer files from the EFS file system to the S3 bucket. You can also schedule periodic replication of your Amazon EFS file system to the S3 bucket within the same AWS Account.
