Virtual Machine Server Infrastructure
Amazon Machine Image (AMI)

Elastic Block Storage (EBS)

Simple Storage Service (S3)
Buckets that store data required for Delphix storage

Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

Required for Delphix Engine to have a static IP address

http://aws.amazon.com/developertools/351
5. [user]#wget
http://s3.amazonaws.com/ec2downloads/ec2
apitools.zip
6. Unzip tools into /usr/local/ec2directory for
example

Install or Verify Java 1.7 is installed

7. [user]#whichjava

Should return /usr/bin/java

8. [user]#/usr/libexec/java_home

Should return:
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_65.jdk/Contents/H
ome
If not then download & install a Java 1.7 development kit from:

Set All Environment Variables:

9. Edit your ~/.bash_profilefile with the following:

10. The AWS Access Key and AWS Secret Key are

12.[user]#ec2describeregions
13. You should see a list of AWS regions

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/CommandLineReferenc
e/set-up-ec2-clilinux.html
3. Run the shell script currently only tested on Linux not
Mac OS X
4. When the script prompts you, enter the following information:
4a. The installation location of the EC2 API CLI tools.
4b. The availability zone the temporary image will be uploaded
to. This availability zone should ideally be the one that instances
will be created in when using this AMI.
4c. The S3 bucket that the manifest should be stored in. This
bucket must be in the same region as the previously specified
availability zone.
