Update an infrastructure configuration - EC2 Image Builder
Services or capabilities described in AWS documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the AWS European Sovereign Cloud Region, see the AWS European Sovereign Cloud User Guide.

Update an infrastructure configuration

This section covers how to update an infrastructure configuration resource. You can use the Image Builder console, imagebuilder commands in the AWS CLI, or AWS Tools for PowerShell. To track your resources, you can apply tags as follows. Enter tags as key-value pairs.

  • Resource tags assign metadata tags to the Amazon EC2 instance that Image Builder launches during the build process.

  • Tags assign metadata tags to the infrastructure configuration resource that Image Builder creates as output.

Note

We recommend that you configure all EC2 instances that Image Builder launches from a pipeline build to use IMDSv2 so that instance metadata retrieval requests require a signed token header.

Console

You can edit the following infrastructure configuration details from the Image Builder console:

  • The Description for your infrastructure configuration.

  • The IAM role to associate with the instance profile.

  • AWS infrastructure, including the Instance type and an SNS topic for notifications.

  • VPC, subnet, and security groups.

  • Troubleshooting settings, including Terminate instance on failure, the Key pair for connecting, and an optional S3 bucket location for instance logs.

To update an infrastructure configuration resource from the Image Builder console, follow these steps:

Choose an existing Image Builder infrastructure configuration

  1. Open the EC2 Image Builder console at https://eusc-de-east-1.console.amazonaws-eusc.eu/imagebuilder/.

  2. To see a list of the infrastructure configuration resources under your account, choose Infrastructure configuration from the navigation pane.

  3. To view details or edit an infrastructure configuration, choose the Configuration name link. This opens the detail view for the infrastructure configuration.

    Note

    You can also select the check box next to the Configuration name, then choose View detail.

  4. From the upper right corner of the Infrastructure details panel, choose Edit .

  5. When you're ready to save updates you've made to your infrastructure configuration, choose Save changes.

AWS CLI

The following example shows how to update the infrastructure configuration for your image with the Image Builder update-infrastructure-configuration command in the AWS CLI.

  1. Create a CLI input JSON file

    This example is based on the first example in Create an infrastructure configuration. It sets terminateInstanceOnFailure to true, so pipelines that use this infrastructure configuration terminate the build and test instances when a build fails.

    The following example sets common infrastructure fields. To require IMDSv2 tokens on the build and test instances, add an instanceMetadataOptions block with httpTokens set to required.

    Use a file editing tool to create a JSON file with keys shown in the following example, plus values that are valid for your environment. This example uses a file named update-infrastructure-configuration.json:

    {
    "infrastructureConfigurationArn": "arn:aws:imagebuilder:us-west-2:111122223333:infrastructure-configuration/my-example-infrastructure-configuration",
    "description": "An example that will terminate instances of failed builds",
    "instanceTypes": [
        "m7i.large", "m7i.2xlarge"
    ],
    "instanceProfileName": "my-iam-instance-profile-name",
    "securityGroupIds": [
        "sg-12345678"
    ],
    "subnetId": "subnet-12345678",
    "logging": {
        "s3Logs": {
            "s3BucketName": "amzn-s3-demo-logging-bucket",
            "s3KeyPrefix": "my-path"
        }
    },
    "terminateInstanceOnFailure": true,
    "snsTopicArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:111122223333:my-topic"
}
  2. Use the file you created as input when you run the following command.
    aws imagebuilder update-infrastructure-configuration --cli-input-json file://update-infrastructure-configuration.json
PowerShell

The following example shows how to use the Update-EC2IBInfrastructureConfiguration cmdlet to update an infrastructure configuration. This example is based on the first example in Create an infrastructure configuration. It sets the TerminateInstanceOnFailure parameter to $true, so pipelines that use this infrastructure configuration terminate the build and test instances when a build fails.

The following example sets common infrastructure fields. To require IMDSv2 tokens on the build and test instances, set the InstanceMetadataOptions_HttpToken parameter to required.

To update the infrastructure configuration, run the Update-EC2IBInfrastructureConfiguration cmdlet:

Update-EC2IBInfrastructureConfiguration -InfrastructureConfigurationArn arn:aws:imagebuilder:us-west-2:111122223333:infrastructure-configuration/my-example-infrastructure-configuration `
    -Description "An example that will terminate instances of failed builds" `
    -InstanceType m7i.large, m7i.2xlarge `
    -InstanceProfileName my-iam-instance-profile-name `
    -SecurityGroupId sg-12345678 `
    -SubnetId subnet-12345678 `
    -S3Logs_S3BucketName amzn-s3-demo-logging-bucket `
    -S3Logs_S3KeyPrefix my-path `
    -TerminateInstanceOnFailure $true `
    -SnsTopicArn arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:111122223333:my-topic
