ssm-run

A simple (really, quite trivial) bash wrapper around the AWS CLI for aws ssm send-command.

Allows you to:

  • execute one or more commands on one or more instances
  • wait for and display the output from all of the commands

and that's all (so far)

Prerequisites

  1. bash
  2. Make sure you have the SSM agent installed and running on your EC2 instances (see http://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/ssm-agent.html)
  3. Make sure you have AWS credentials available for your command-line

Installation

Copy ssm-run from this repo to somewhere in your $PATH. That's it.

Usage

localhost$ ssm-run "<commands>" <instance-id> [<instance-id> ...]

The command-ID is printed at the start of every run, which means you can use the regular aws ssm get-command-invocation syntax to inspect particular outputs more closely

Examples

Getting the disk usage of the root filesystem of two EC2 instances

localhost$ ssm-run "df -h /" i-00c369e70f5e6dfbd i-4a684e9fdaec52001
