Question: How can I record my Linux terminal session in text mode and share or replay it later?

I want to record my Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) Linux terminal session or SSH session in text mode and then share it or replay it later. How can I do this?Short descriptionYou can record your SSH or terminal session to a file using the script command. If you need help, you can run the man script command to access the user manual.

ResolutionRecord the session1.    Open an SSH terminal. Replace the example IP address in the following command with your IP address or hostname.$ ssh 198.51.100.02.    Start a script session. In the following command, -a enables append mode and -t sets a timing file.$ script -a -t timingfile.txt typescript.txt3.    Run any commands that you want to record. The commands and any output are recorded.4.    When done, exit the script session by typing exit or pressing Ctrl-D.5.    Files named typescript.txt and timingfile.txt contain the recorded data. You can share these files as needed.Replay the session1.    Copy the typescript.txt and timingfile.txt files to a Linux (or Unix) server or replay them from the same server.2.    Use the following command to show the complete output of the typescript.txt file immediately without a delay:$ cat typescript.txt3.    Use the following command to replay the file with normal timing:$ scriptreplay --timing=timingfile.txt typescript.txt4.    Use the following command to replay the file with a timing divisor to enable faster replay:$ scriptreplay --timing=timingfile.txt typescript.txt -d 10Note: The Linux executables script and scriptreplay come pre-installed by default, so they don't need to be installed separately. If you do need to install them, use the following command that corresponds to your operating system:Ubuntu 16 and Ubuntu 18:sudo apt install bsdutilsRHEL 6:sudo yum install util-linux-ngRHEL 7, Amazon Linux 1, and Amazon Linux 2:sudo yum install util-linux

Question: How do I migrate my network traffic from a Direct Connect virtual interface associated with a virtual private gateway to a Direct Connect gateway?

I want to migrate network traffic from my existing AWS Direct Connect virtual interface that's associated with a virtual private gateway to a Direct Connect gateway. I want to complete the migration with minimum downtime. How can I do this?Short descriptionTo migrate traffic from a Direct Connect virtual interface that's associated with a virtual private gateway to a new Direct Connect gateway, you must create a new virtual interface. When you create the new virtual interface, be sure to associate it with your new Direct Connect gateway. Then, use Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) attributes on your network device (such as AS path prepending) to migrate traffic to the Direct Connect gateway with minimal downtime.

ResolutionNote: Before proceeding, check your vendor documentation for instructions on how to configure BGP on your specific network device.Perform the following steps during a scheduled maintenance window to minimize downtime:Create a new Direct Connect gateway.Create a new private virtual interface.Important: During creation, be sure to associate the virtual interface with the Direct Connect gateway you created in the previous step.Associate the virtual private gateway that's already attached to your virtual private cloud (VPC) with the Direct Connect gateway that you just created.(Optional)To minimize downtime, pre-stage the configuration on your network device for the new virtual interface associated with the new Direct Connect gateway.Use BGP to configure a longer AS_Path routing policy on the same prefixes that you’re configuring the new virtual interface to advertise. This step configures outbound traffic from AWS to prefer the existing virtual interface route (with a shorter AS_Path).Note: To be sure that traffic from your network device still egresses from the existing virtual interface, use the Local Preference BGP attribute on your network device.During your maintenance window, bring down the BGP session for the existing virtual interface on your network device.Wait for the network traffic from AWS to propagate through the new virtual interface associated with the Direct Connect gateway.Check your network device to confirm that it's receiving traffic from the new virtual interface.

Question: Does Amazon RDS support IPv6 addressing?

Can I use Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addressing with Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS)?ResolutionIPv6 is available in all Regions, and you can add IPv6 addresses to both a virtual private cloud (VPC) and its subnets. Amazon RDS supports IPv6 with dual-stack mode. You can work with IPv6 on Amazon RDS when you create new instances or modify existing instances. When using Amazon RDS with IPv6, keep the following in mind:The range of IPv6 addresses are assigned from Amazon's pool of available IPs, and can't be selected manually. Make sure that outbound rules for security groups and ACLs are configured accordingly.When running on a dual-stack mode, Amazon RDS doesn't allow public accessibility over an internet gateway.All the subnets of the database's subnet group must have IPv4 and IPv6 CIDRs attached to them to support dual-stack mode.Don't delete subnets or CIDR disassociation at the VPC level. This can cause your RDS instance to become network incompatible if the DB subnet group stops supporting the DUAL network type.For more information about RDS with IP addressing, see Amazon RDS IP addressing.

Question: How do I change the volume size or compute type of a WorkSpace?

I want to change the volume size or compute type of my WorkSpace in Amazon WorkSpaces. How can I do this?ResolutionTo change the WorkSpace volume size or compute type, see Modify a WorkSpace.After you modify a WorkSpace using the WorkSpaces console, you receive the message "modification of your WorkSpace was successfully initiated." The WorkSpace reboots after you request the change. To verify that the volume size or compute type is changed, choose Refresh Data. Expect a delay of 10-15 minutes for a volume size change to become visible.If you want users to be able to access their WorkSpaces when the disk size increase is running, then verify the status of the WorkSpaces. Make sure that the WorkSpaces have a status of AVAILABLE instead of STOPPED before you resize the WorkSpace volumes. If the WorkSpaces are STOPPED, then they can't be started when the disk size increase is in progress.Note the following timelines and restrictions when changing the volume size or compute type:Review the sizing requirements for changing the volume size.You can request a WorkSpace bundle type increase one time every hour, or decrease one time every 30 days.You can request a volume increase one time every 6 hours.You can't decrease the size of root and user volumes after the WorkSpace is launched.You can't modify both the root and user volume simultaneously. To modify both, first follow the previously mentioned process for the root volume, and then repeat the process for the user volume.WorkSpaces that were created earlier than December 2016 don't support resize operations. Rebuild the WorkSpace to change the volume type to SSD. Then, resize the WorkSpace storage.

Question: "How can I encrypt an existing unencrypted EBS volume, or change the encryption key that my volume uses?"

I want to encrypt an existing unencrypted Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume. Or, I want to change the encryption key that my existing encrypted Amazon EBS volume uses. How can I do this?Short descriptionYou can't encrypt existing unencrypted Amazon EBS volumes. You also can't change the AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) key that existing encrypted EBS volumes use. However, you can create a snapshot of the volume. Then, use the snapshot to create a new, encrypted copy of the volume. When you create the new volume, specify the encryption key that you want to use.

ResolutionNote: Amazon EBS volumes that are created from snapshots go through an initialization process. This can cause an initial performance degradation for the volume. To avoid performance degradation, use one of the two options listed in step 8.Open the Amazon EC2 console.Under Elastic Block Store, select Volumes.Select the volume from the list. Note the current Availability Zone of your volume.From the Actions dropdown list, choose Create snapshot.(Optional) Enter a Description for the snapshot.Select Create snapshot.Under Elastic Block Store, select Snapshots, and then select your newly created snapshot.(Optional) To avoid latency issues, turn on Amazon EBS fast snapshot restore on your snapshot. Or, manually initialize your Amazon EBS volume after creation.From the Actions dropdown list, select Create volume from snapshot.From the Availability Zone dropdown list, select the same Availability Zone of your current volume.If the source snapshot is unencrypted, then under Encryption, select Encrypt this volume.From the KMS key dropdown list, choose the encryption key.Select Create volume.To encrypt volumes and snapshot copies by default, see How can I turn on automatic encryption of new Amazon EBS volumes and snapshot copies created in my account?Related informationAmazon EBS encryption
Question: How can I improve the performance of the AWS SCT conversion tool when using AWS DMS?

I'm using the AWS Schema Conversion Tool (AWS SCT) to convert source database objects to a format that is compatible with my target AWS Database Migration Service (AWS DMS) database. But the conversion process is taking longer than expected. How can I improve the performance of AWS SCT conversion tool?Short descriptionThe AWS SCT is a locally installed tool that you can use to automatically convert your source database schema. The tool also converts a majority of the database code objects, such as views, stored procedures, and functions, to a format that's compatible with the target database. For more information, see Converting database schemas using AWS SCT.This means that the performance of the AWS SCT depends on the memory that's available on the local machine that it's installed on. If you increase the memory that's available to the AWS SCT, then you also speed up the performance of your conversion. But this means that the AWS SCT also consumes more memory resources on your local machine.Note: It's a best practice to install the AWS SCT on a separate machine that's in the same network as your source. This allows for better performance in the code conversion and data migration phases. Be sure that the source database stats are current to avoid performance issues in the data warehouse migration.

ResolutionUse one of these methods to control the memory usage and performance of the AWS SCT tool.Choose how AWS SCT uses memoryRun the AWS SCT on your local machine.In the Settings menu, choose Performance and Memory.Choose one of these options:Fast conversion, but large memory consumption - This optimizes the speed of the conversion. But, it might need more memory for the object reference cache.Low memory consumption, but slower conversion - This minimizes the amount of memory used, but it results in a slower conversion. Use this option if your machine has a limited amount of memory.Balance speed with memory consumption - This provides a balance between memory use and conversion speed.Choose Apply, and then choose OK to save your settingsManually configure the amount of memory available to AWS SCTYou can control the memory that the AWS SCT consumes in a more granular way by manually configuring how much memory is available to the tool.To modify the amount of memory the AWS SCT consumes, follow these steps:Open the folder that contains the AWS SCT configuration file. For example, on a Windows system its located in C:\Program Files\AWS Schema Conversion Tool\App.Open the configuration file named AWS Schema Conversion Tool.cfg using a text editor like Notepad.In the JavaOptions section, set the minimum and maximum memory available to the AWS SCT. This example sets a minimum of 4GB and a maximum of 40GB:[JavaOptions]-Xmx48960M-Xms4096MRelated informationHow do I increase logging levels for the AWS SCT when using AWS DMS?How do I install the AWS SCT and database drivers for Windows to convert the database schema for my AWS DMS task?
