Enabling Specific AMI IDs for Restores and Replication

To restrict the scope of AMI selection to specific AMI IDs during restores and replication, you must add an additional setting.

Procedure

To the access node (formerly VSA Proxy), add the sAmazonAMIListForRestore additional setting as shown in the following table.

For instructions about adding an additional setting from the CommCell Console, see Adding an Additional Setting from the CommCell Console.

Property	Value
Name	sAmazonAMIListForRestore
Category	VirtualServer
Type	String
Value	Semicolon-separated list of AMI IDs. Note Restore operations fail if an appropriate AMI for the VM is not present in the list. To override this behavior, add the asterisk "*" character to the list to allow the restore job to fall back and search all self and Amazon-owned AMIs.
