This module assumes you have the AWSPowerShell Module already installed

if you need to install "install-module AWSPowerShell" (PS5.0 and up)

you'll need to have your .PEM file in the root directory for your keypair

EC2.Builder.ps1 - Programatically builds EC2 Instances based on aws.json

  • verifies if instances with name already exists, if not creates
  • Inserts Any Scripts from the USERDATA directory as bootstraped Base64 encoded to run persistently so scripts should be Idempotent
  • current PS Bootstrap script -verifies / creates WinRM HTTPS Listener -Self Signed Cert -Firewall rule for 5986
  • retrieves information on instances and waits for running status
  • Tests WSMan by remote invoking Instances and retrieving WinRM Service information

populate the Instances object in the following format

{ "Name": "", "Type": "t2.micro", "Image": "" }

Breakdown of keys
  -Region : default region to use, this also gets used for programatically creating the self signed cert
  -defaultAWSProfile : the default aws profile you've configured from credentials.csv
  -DefaultImageName : a default Windows Base image
  -Keypairname : the name of the keypair to attach to your instances, if you leave this blank good luck logging in
  -SecurityGroup : the name of a pre-existing security group to attach Instances to
