ec2-upload-bundle

Description

Uploads the bundle for an instance store-backed Linux AMI to Amazon S3 and sets the appropriate access control lists (ACLs) on the uploaded objects. For more information, see Create an instance store-backed Linux AMI.

Note

To upload objects to an S3 bucket for your instance store-backed Linux AMI, ACLs must be enabled for the bucket. Otherwise, Amazon EC2 will not be able to set ACLs on the objects to upload. If your destination bucket uses the bucket owner enforced setting for S3 Object Ownership, this won’t work because ACLs are disabled. For more information, see Controlling ownership of uploaded objects using S3 Object Ownership.

Syntax

ec2-upload-bundle -b bucket -a access_key_id -s secret_access_key [-t token] -m path [--url url] [--region region] [--sigv version] [--acl acl] [-d directory] [--part part] [--retry] [--skipmanifest]

Options

-b, --bucket bucket

The name of the Amazon S3 bucket in which to store the bundle, followed by an optional '/'-delimited path prefix. If the bucket doesn't exist, it's created if the bucket name is available. Additionally, if the bucket doesn't exist and the AMI tools version is 1.5.18 or later, this command sets the ACLs for the bucket.

Required: Yes

-a, --access-key access_key_id

Your AWS access key ID.

Required: Yes

-s, --secret-key secret_access_key

Your AWS secret access key.

Required: Yes

Required: Only when you are using temporary security credentials.

Default: The value of the AWS_DELEGATION_TOKEN environment variable (if set).

-m, --manifest path

The path to the manifest file. The manifest file is created during the bundling process and can be found in the directory containing the bundle.

Required: Yes

--url url

Deprecated. Use the --region option instead unless your bucket is constrained to the EU location (and not eu-west-1). The --location flag is the only way to target that specific location restraint.

The Amazon S3 endpoint service URL.

Default: https://s3.amazonaws.com/

Required: No

--region region

The Region to use in the request signature for the destination S3 bucket.

  • If the bucket doesn't exist and you don't specify a Region, the tool creates the bucket without a location constraint (in us-east-1).

  • If the bucket doesn't exist and you specify a Region, the tool creates the bucket in the specified Region.

  • If the bucket exists and you don't specify a Region, the tool uses the bucket's location.

  • If the bucket exists and you specify us-east-1 as the Region, the tool uses the bucket's actual location without any error message, any existing matching files are over-written.

  • If the bucket exists and you specify a Region (other than us-east-1) that doesn't match the bucket's actual location, the tool exits with an error.

If your bucket is constrained to the EU location (and not eu-west-1), use the --location flag instead. The --location flag is the only way to target that specific location restraint.

Default: us-east-1

Required: Required if using signature version 4

--sigv version

The signature version to use when signing the request.

Valid values: 2 | 4

Required: No

--retry

Automatically retries on all Amazon S3 errors, up to five times per operation.

Required: No

--skipmanifest

Does not upload the manifest.

Required: No

--location location

Deprecated. Use the --region option instead, unless your bucket is constrained to the EU location (and not eu-west-1). The --location flag is the only way to target that specific location restraint.

The location constraint of the destination Amazon S3 bucket. If the bucket exists and you specify a location that doesn't match the bucket's actual location, the tool exits with an error. If the bucket exists and you don't specify a location, the tool uses the bucket's location. If the bucket doesn't exist and you specify a location, the tool creates the bucket in the specified location. If the bucket doesn't exist and you don't specify a location, the tool creates the bucket without a location constraint (in us-east-1).

Default: If --region is specified, the location is set to that specified Region. If --region is not specified, the location defaults to us-east-1.

Required: No

Output

Amazon EC2 displays status messages that indicate the stages and status of the upload process.
