Application Discovery Service examples using Amazon CLI - Amazon Command Line Interface
Actions
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

This documentation is for Version 1 of the Amazon CLI only. For documentation related to Version 2 of the Amazon CLI, see the Version 2 User Guide.

Application Discovery Service examples using Amazon CLI

The following code examples show you how to perform actions and implement common scenarios by using the Amazon Command Line Interface with Application Discovery Service.

Actions are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. While actions show you how to call individual service functions, you can see actions in context in their related scenarios.

Each example includes a link to the complete source code, where you can find instructions on how to set up and run the code in context.

The following code example shows how to use describe-agents.

Amazon CLI

Describe agents with specified collectionStatus states

This example command describes collection agents with collection status of "STARTED" or "STOPPED".

Command:

aws discovery describe-agents --filters name="collectionStatus",values="STARTED","STOPPED",condition="EQUALS" --max-results 3

Output:

The following code example shows how to use describe-configurations.

Amazon CLI

Describe selected asset configurations

This example command describes the configurations of two specified servers. The action detects the type of asset from the configuration ID. Only one type of asset is allowed per command.

Command:

aws discovery describe-configurations --configuration-ids "d-server-099385097ef9fbcfb" "d-server-0c4f2dd1fee22c6c1"

Describe selected asset configurations

This example command describes the configurations of two specified applications. The action detects the type of asset from the configuration ID. Only one type of asset is allowed per command.

Command:

aws discovery describe-configurations --configuration-ids "d-application-0ac39bc0e4fad0e42" "d-application-02444a45288013764q"

Output:

{
    "configurations": [
        {
                 "application.serverCount": "0",
                 "application.name": "Application-12345",

The following code example shows how to use list-configurations.

Amazon CLI

To list all of the discovered servers meeting a set of filter conditions

This example command lists discovered servers matching either of two hostname patterns and not running Ubuntu.

Command:

aws discovery list-configurations --configuration-type SERVER --filters name="server.hostName",values="172-31-35","172-31-42",condition="CONTAINS" name="server.osName",values="Ubuntu",condition="NOT_CONTAINS"
