Example 1: To launch an instance into a default subnet

The following run-instances example launches a single instance of type t2.micro into the default subnet for the current Region and associates it with the default subnet for the default VPC for the Region. The key pair is optional if you do not plan to connect to your instance using SSH (Linux) or RDP (Windows).

aws ec2 run-instances \ --image-id ami-0abcdef1234567890 \ --instance-type t2.micro \ --key-name MyKeyPair

Output:

Example 2: To launch an instance into a non-default subnet and add a public IP address

The following run-instances example requests a public IP address for an instance that you're launching into a nondefault subnet. The instance is associated with the specified security group.

aws ec2 run-instances \ --image-id ami-0abcdef1234567890 \ --instance-type t2.micro \ --subnet-id subnet-08fc749671b2d077c \ --security-group-ids sg-0b0384b66d7d692f9 \ --associate-public-ip-address \ --key-name MyKeyPair

For an example of the output for run-instances, see Example 1.

Example 3: To launch an instance with additional volumes

The following run-instances example uses a block device mapping, specified in mapping.json, to attach additional volumes at launch. A block device mapping can specify EBS volumes, instance store volumes, or both EBS volumes and instance store volumes.

aws ec2 run-instances \ --image-id ami-0abcdef1234567890 \ --instance-type t2.micro \ --subnet-id subnet-08fc749671b2d077c \ --security-group-ids sg-0b0384b66d7d692f9 \ --key-name MyKeyPair \ --block-device-mappings file://mapping.json

Contents of mapping.json. This example adds /dev/sdh an empty EBS volume with a size of 100 GiB.

[ { "DeviceName": "/dev/sdh", "Ebs": { "VolumeSize": 100 } } ]

Contents of mapping.json. This example adds ephemeral1 as an instance store volume.

[ { "DeviceName": "/dev/sdc", "VirtualName": "ephemeral1" } ]

For an example of the output for run-instances, see Example 1.

For more information about block device mappings, see Block device mapping in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Example 4: To launch an instance and add tags on creation

The following run-instances example adds a tag with a key of webserver and value of production to the instance. The command also applies a tag with a key of cost-center and a value of cc123 to any EBS volume that's created (in this case, the root volume).

aws ec2 run-instances \ --image-id ami-0abcdef1234567890 \ --instance-type t2.micro \ --count 1 \ --subnet-id subnet-08fc749671b2d077c \ --key-name MyKeyPair \ --security-group-ids sg-0b0384b66d7d692f9 \ --tag-specifications 'ResourceType=instance,Tags=[{Key=webserver,Value=production}]' 'ResourceType=volume,Tags=[{Key=cost-center,Value=cc123}]'

For an example of the output for run-instances, see Example 1.

Example 5: To launch an instance with user data

The following run-instances example passes user data in a file called my_script.txt that contains a configuration script for your instance. The script runs at launch.

aws ec2 run-instances \ --image-id ami-0abcdef1234567890 \ --instance-type t2.micro \ --count 1 \ --subnet-id subnet-08fc749671b2d077c \ --key-name MyKeyPair \ --security-group-ids sg-0b0384b66d7d692f9 \ --user-data file://my_script.txt

For an example of the output for run-instances, see Example 1.

For more information about instance user data, see Working with instance user data in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Example 6: To launch a burstable performance instance

The following run-instances example launches a t2.micro instance with the unlimited credit option. When you launch a T2 instance, if you do not specify --credit-specification, the default is the standard credit option. When you launch a T3 instance, the default is the unlimited credit option.

aws ec2 run-instances \ --image-id ami-0abcdef1234567890 \ --instance-type t2.micro \ --count 1 \ --subnet-id subnet-08fc749671b2d077c \ --key-name MyKeyPair \ --security-group-ids sg-0b0384b66d7d692f9 \ --credit-specification CpuCredits=unlimited

For an example of the output for run-instances, see Example 1.

For more information about burstable performance instances, see Burstable performance instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Example 1: This example launches a single instance of the specified AMI in EC2-Classic or a default VPC.

New-EC2Instance -ImageId ami-12345678 -MinCount 1 -MaxCount 1 -InstanceType m3.medium -KeyName my-key-pair -SecurityGroup my-security-group

Example 2: This example launches a single instance of the specified AMI in a VPC.

New-EC2Instance -ImageId ami-12345678 -MinCount 1 -MaxCount 1 -SubnetId subnet-12345678 -InstanceType t2.micro -KeyName my-key-pair -SecurityGroupId sg-12345678

Example 3: To add an EBS volume or an instance store volume, define a block device mapping and add it to the command. This example adds an instance store volume.

$bdm = New-Object Amazon.EC2.Model.BlockDeviceMapping $bdm.VirtualName = "ephemeral0" $bdm.DeviceName = "/dev/sdf" New-EC2Instance -ImageId ami-12345678 -BlockDeviceMapping $bdm ...

Example 4: To specify one of the current Windows AMIs, get its AMI ID using Get-EC2ImageByName. This example launches an instance from the current base AMI for Windows Server 2016.

$ami = Get-EC2ImageByName WINDOWS_2016_BASE New-EC2Instance -ImageId $ami.ImageId ...

Example 5: Launches an instance into the specified dedicated host environment.

New-EC2Instance -ImageId ami-1a2b3c4d -InstanceType m4.large -KeyName my-key-pair -SecurityGroupId sg-1a2b3c4d -AvailabilityZone us-west-1a -Tenancy host -HostID h-1a2b3c4d5e6f1a2b3

Example 6: This request launches two instances and applies a tag with a key of webserver and a value of production to the instances. The request also applies a tag with a key of cost-center and a value of cc123 to the volumes that are created (in this case, the root volume for each instance).

$tag1 = @{ Key="webserver"; Value="production" } $tag2 = @{ Key="cost-center"; Value="cc123" } $tagspec1 = new-object Amazon.EC2.Model.TagSpecification $tagspec1.ResourceType = "instance" $tagspec1.Tags.Add($tag1) $tagspec2 = new-object Amazon.EC2.Model.TagSpecification $tagspec2.ResourceType = "volume" $tagspec2.Tags.Add($tag2) New-EC2Instance -ImageId "ami-1a2b3c4d" -KeyName "my-key-pair" -MaxCount 2 -InstanceType "t2.large" -SubnetId "subnet-1a2b3c4d" -TagSpecification $tagspec1,$tagspec2
