AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 — Topic 1 Question 492

Question

A solutions architect is importing a VM from an on-premises environment by using the Amazon EC2 VM Import feature of AWS Import/Export. The solutions architect has created an AMI and has provisioned an Amazon EC2 instance that is based on that AMI. The EC2 instance runs inside a public subnet in a VPC and has a public IP address assigned. The EC2 instance does not appear as a managed instance in the AWS Systems Manager console. Which combination of steps should the solutions architect take to troubleshoot this issue? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A, B. The correct answer is A, B. Option A: Verify that Systems Manager Agent is installed on the instance and is running. Option B: Verify that the instance is assigned an appropriate IAM role for Systems Manager. An IAM role grants temporary, least-privilege permissions to AWS resources without long-term credentials. AWS IAM controls authenticated and authorized access to AWS resources with fine-grained policies. AWS Systems Manager operates and automates management of fleets of resources.
