Run Command provides an on-demand experience for executing commands. You can use pre-defined Amazon SSM documents to perform the actions listed later in this section, or you can create your own documents. With these documents, you can remotely configure your instances by sending commands using the Commands page in the Amazon EC2 console, AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell, or the AWS CLI.
Run Command reports the status of the command execution for each instance targeted by a command. You can also audit the command execution to understand who executed commands, when, and what changes were made. By switching between different SSM documents, you can quickly configure your instances with different types of commands. To get started with Run Command, verify that your environment meets the prerequisites for remotely running commands on EC2 instances (Linux or Windows).
SSM ConfigSSM Config is a lightweight instance configuration solution. SSM Config is currently only available for Windows instances. With SSM Config, you can specify a setup configuration for your instances. SSM Config is similar to EC2 User Data, which is another way of running one-time scripts or applying settings during instance launch. SSM Config is an extension of this capability. Using SSM documents, you can specify which actions the system should perform on your instances, including which applications to install, which AWS Directory Service directory to join, which Microsoft PowerShell modules to install, etc. If an instance is missing one or more of these configurations, the system makes those changes. By default, the system checks every five minutes to see if there is a new configuration to apply as defined in a new SSM document. If so, the system updates the instances accordingly. In this way, you can remotely maintain a consistent configuration baseline on your instances. SSM Config is available using the AWS CLI or the AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell. For more information, see Managing Windows Instance Configuration.

CancelCommand(CancelCommandRequest) | Attempts to cancel the command specified by the Command ID. There is no guarantee that the command will be terminated and the underlying process stopped. | |
CreateAssociation(string, string) |
Associates the specified SSM document with the specified instance.
When you associate an SSM document with an instance, the configuration agent on the instance processes the document and configures the instance as specified. If you associate a document with an instance that already has an associated document, the system throws the AssociationAlreadyExists exception. |
|
CreateAssociation(CreateAssociationRequest) |
Associates the specified SSM document with the specified instance.
When you associate an SSM document with an instance, the configuration agent on the instance processes the document and configures the instance as specified. If you associate a document with an instance that already has an associated document, the system throws the AssociationAlreadyExists exception. |
|
CreateAssociationBatch(CreateAssociationBatchRequest) |
Associates the specified SSM document with the specified instances.
When you associate an SSM document with an instance, the configuration agent on the instance processes the document and configures the instance as specified. If you associate a document with an instance that already has an associated document, the system throws the AssociationAlreadyExists exception. |
|
CreateDocument(string, string) |
Creates an SSM document.
After you create an SSM document, you can use CreateAssociation to associate it with one or more running instances. |
|
CreateDocument(CreateDocumentRequest) |
Creates an SSM document.
After you create an SSM document, you can use CreateAssociation to associate it with one or more running instances. |
|
DeleteAssociation(string, string) |
Disassociates the specified SSM document from the specified instance.
When you disassociate an SSM document from an instance, it does not change the configuration of the instance. To change the configuration state of an instance after you disassociate a document, you must create a new document with the desired configuration and associate it with the instance. |
|
DeleteAssociation(DeleteAssociationRequest) |
Disassociates the specified SSM document from the specified instance.
When you disassociate an SSM document from an instance, it does not change the configuration of the instance. To change the configuration state of an instance after you disassociate a document, you must create a new document with the desired configuration and associate it with the instance. |
|
