Create an AMI and Auto Scaling Group

To ensure that you can recover from any interruptions, you need to create an AMI that includes the Controller. Then, you need to create an auto scaling group based on the AMI.

Creating an AMI and auto scaling group involves the following steps:

  • Step 1: Shut Down the Enterprise Console
  • Step 2: Create an AMI
  • Step 3: Create the Launch Configuration
  • Step 4: Create an Auto Scaling Group
