AWS Systems Manager Distributor

The user creates a package with Breeze Agent. The distributor publishes this package to System Manager managed instances. Then the agent can be installed or uninstalled:

• one time by using AWS Systems Manager Run Command

• on a schedule by using AWS Systems Manager State Manager

1. The distributor package consists of a manifest and two .zip archive files for Windows and Linux platforms. Each archive contains install and uninstall scripts, as well as Breeze Agent distro respectively to the platform. The manifest template and scripts can be obtained from Github repository.

   In the file manifest.json find the field "version" and change its value to something meaningful. This is also the value of Version name that should be specified when the package will be added to the Distributor (it becomes part of the AWS Systems Manager document). A version value can contain letters, numbers, underscores, hyphens, and periods, and be from 3 to 128 characters in length. It is recommended to use a human-readable value.

2. A Linux archive named breeze-agent-linux.zip should contain next files: install.sh, uninstall.sh and agent.XXX.YY.Z.x86_64.linux.tgz (the Linux Breeze Agent distro as it was downloaded from CMDB).

   A Windows archive named breeze-agent-windows.zip should contain such files as: install.ps1, uninstall.ps1 and agent.XXX.YY.Z.windows.signed.exe (the Windows Breeze Agent distro as it was downloaded from CMDB).

   Ensure that the script files have the correct lines breaks, namely LF (\n == 0x0A) on Linux and CRLF (\r\n == 0x0D 0x0A) on Windows.

   For each archive file mentioned in the manifest should be specified a sha256 checksum. In order to calculate it, the following commands can be used:

   Linux: shasum -a 256 file-name.zip or openssl dgst -sha256 file-name.zip

   Windows: Get-FileHash -Path file-name.zip (powershell)

   In the manifest.json find the section "files" and replace ARCHIVE_CHECKSUM placeholders with the calculated checksums.

3. In the AWS Systems Manager create an Advanced package as described in AWS documentation.
