Using Amazon Systems Manager Elastic Beanstalk runbooks

You can use Systems Manager to troubleshoot your Elastic Beanstalk environments. To help you get started quickly, Systems Manager provides predefined Automation runbooks for Elastic Beanstalk. An Automation runbook is a type of Systems Manager document that defines actions to perform on your environment's instances and other Amazon resources.

The document AWSSupport-TroubleshootElasticBeanstalk is an Automation runbook designed to help identify a number of common issues that can degrade your Elastic Beanstalk environment. To do so, it checks components of your environment, including the following: EC2 instances, the VPC, Amazon CloudFormation stack, load balancers, Auto Scaling groups, and network configuration associated with security group rules, route tables, and ACLs.

It also provides an option to upload bundled log files from your environment to Amazon Support.

For more information, see AWSSupport-TroubleshootElasticBeanstalk in the Amazon Systems Manager Automation runbook reference.
