Step 1: Create an instance profile - Amazon Database Migration Service
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).

Step 1: Create an instance profile

Before you create an instance profile, configure a subnet group for your instance profile. For more information about creating a subnet group for your Amazon DMS migration project, see Creating a subnet group.

You can create an instance profile as described in the following procedure. In this instance profile, you specify network and security settings for your DMS Schema Conversion project.

To create an instance profile

  1. Sign in to the Amazon Web Services Management Console and open the Amazon DMS console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/dms/v2/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Instance profiles, and then choose Create instance profile.

  3. For Name, enter a unique name for your instance profile. For example, enter sc-instance.

  4. For Network type, choose IPv4 to create an instance profile that supports only IPv4 addressing. To create an instance profile that supports IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, choose Dual-stack mode.

  5. For Virtual private cloud (VPC), choose the VPC that you created in the prerequisites step.

  6. For Subnet group, choose the subnet group for your instance profile. To connect to Amazon RDS databases, use a subnet group that includes public subnets. To connect to on-premises databases, use a subnet group that includes private subnets.

  7. Choose Create instance profile.

To create a migration project, use this instance profile.
