New Amazon EC2 features

Hi guys,

version 9.1 has a few additional amazon gimmicks:

Start UTM instance and restore backup from URL:

ec2-run-instances --region eu-west-1 -t m1.small -d "{ backup_file => 'http://example/backup_clean.abf' }" ami-8abfb0fe



Start UTM instance and restore encrypted backup from URL with given secret:

ec2-run-instances --region eu-west-1 -t m1.small -d "{ backup_file => 'http://example/backup_encrypted.ebf', backup_password => 'secret' }" ami-8abfb0fe



Start UTM instance, apply basic setup, install ssh_eu SSH keys and install beta license file:

ec2-run-instances --region eu-west-1 -t m1.small -k ssh_eu -d "{ hostname => 'ec2-demo.local', organization => 'Astaro', city => 'Karlsruhe', country => 'de', email => 'ulrich.weber@sophos.com', password => 'geheim', license => 'http://people.astaro.com/uweber/UTM91_Beta_Software_Virtual_Cloud.txt' }" ami-8abfb0fe




Note: You can also paste the user data (everything between the quotes after -d) in the Amazon EC2 start wizard.

See https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/astaroorg/f/80/t/64785 for the AMI IDs.

  • Hey Merlin, will it be possible to edit the interface name of eth0 in these EC2 images?  One of my complaints about using the EC2 images (the current 9.00x ones) is that one cannot rename the 1st interface on the system; I understand why we can't delete the interface, etc. but we should at least be able to rename it.
