NAME

slecompliancereport - Check running instances in EC2 and report compliance to terms of use

SYNOPSIS

slecompliancereport [options]

DESCRIPTION

slecompliancereport Generate a compliance report for all running SUSE instance in a region. Prior to the middle of 2019 it was possible to accidentally lose the billing construct for on-demand instances in EC2 when creating images from running instances. This condition supports access to the SUSE operated update infrastructure without instances from the custom image being recognized as SUSE on-demand instances. Instances in this state are considered to be out of compliance. This script will report on all such instances to allow the user to take appropriate action. Either by bringing the instance back into compliance via a root volume swap procedure or registering the instance with the SUSE Customer Center and treating it as a BYOS instance.

OPTIONS

Specify the AWS API access key
Allow the automatic update of the cloud-regionsrv-client package on the systems being inspected. A version greater than 9.0.0 of the cloud-regionsrv-client package is required to maintain access to the SUSE update infrastructure after May 31st 2020. If the instance is in compliance and this option is provided the package will automatically be updated. If the option is not used instances with a cloud-regionsrv-client package version less than 9.0.0 will be included in the compliance report.
A comma separated list of instance IDs to check. If no instnace IDs are given all instances in the given region will be checked.
A user name in the instance that has password-less sudo access and that matches with the path to the private ssh key file provided.
Path to the private ssh key file for the instance user that has password-less sudo access in the instances being inspected.
Specify the region in which to operate. Multiple regions can be specified as a comma separated list. If no region(s) is specified all connected regions in the standard AWS partitions will be scanned.
The secret AWS API key
Write progress information to stdout

CAVEAT

The implementation uses the get_available_regions API from the boto3 implementation. This API produces the result of a hard coded list from the boto3 implementation. Therefore, depending on the version of the installed boto3 package not all available regions may be processed.
