Creating an AMI import configuration file

In your local machine, create a containers.json file with the following contents.

[
    {
        "Description": "Agent AMI file",
        "Format": "ova",
        "UserBucket": {
        "S3Bucket": "$AWS_S3_BUCKET",
        "S3Key": "$OVA_FILE"
        }
    }
]

In the file contents, replace:

• $AWS_S3_BUCKET with the name of the S3 bucket described in Creating an S3 bucket.
• $OVA_FILE with the name of the OVA file selected when Uploading the OVA file.

For example:

[
    {
        "Description": "Agent AMI file",
        "Format": "ova",
        "UserBucket": {
            "S3Bucket": "PKIaaS-vm",
            "S3Key": "PKIaaS-vm-prod-us.ova"
        }
    }
]
