AWS - COMMAND LINE INTERFACE

🔅 Create a key pair 

🔅 Create a security group 

🔅 Launch an instance using the above created key pair and security group.

🔅 Create an EBS volume of 1 GB.

🔅 The final step is to attach the above created EBS volume to the instance you created in the previous steps.

In this article we do above all steps by aws-cli

Step-1 : check aws cli in installed or not.

cmd - aws

Step-2 : configure the aws

cmd - aws configure

By creating IAM through GUI (give power user access) we got Access key and Secret key .

Then we have to provide our region name.

Step 3 : create key pair

By run a command "aws help " , we get all the available functions

cmd - aws ec2 create-key-pair --key-name awscli

we successfully created key pair , we can also check this by GUI.

Step 4 : Create a security group

In aws help we have option for creating the security group

cmd - aws ec2 create-security-group --description "cli-securitygroup" --group-name cli-securitygroup

 we successfully created the security group , we can also check this by GUI

Step 5 : Launch an instance using the above created key pair and security group.

• we have to choose which instance we launch and give its image id
• we have to give instance type as t2.micro (free - tier)
• then we give security group id and key name.

by GUI we can also check.

Step 6 : Create an EBS volume of 1 GB

aws ec2 create-volume --availability-zone ap-south-1a --size 1

by GUI we can also check.

Step 7 : attach the above created EBS volume to the instance we created in the previous steps.

aws ec2 attach-volume --device /dev/xvda  --instance-id i-0f5cd03a917c59914 --volume-id  vol-019ae1f7ef6ab04ed

by this we can attach the volume to instance

and by GUI we can also check this.

Hence we successfully done the below task by AWS CLI

Create a key pair 

Create a security group 

Launch an instance using the above created key pair and security group.

Create an EBS volume of 1 GB.

The final step is to attach the above created EBS volume to the instance you created in the previous steps.
