> export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH

4.Configure AWS access credentials ,region and output format
> aws configure
AWS Access Key ID [****************DZDQ]:
AWS Secret Access Key [****************n8JX]:
Default region name [eu-central-1]:
Default output format [json]:
5.Create security group :
> aws ec2 create-security-group --group-name cc_9 --description "security group for group 9"
{
    "GroupId": "sg-12c14c6e"
}

6.Enable ssh for security group :
> aws ec2 authorize-security-group-ingress --group-id sg-12c14c6e --protocol tcp --port 22 --cidr 0.0.0.0/0
7.Create Keypair and save it in “cloud-key1.pem” :
>aws ec2 create-key-pair --key-name cloud-key1 --output text > cloud-key1.pem
8.Create and start an instance of type "t2.micro" :
> aws ec2 run-instances --image-id ami- bf2ba8d0 --security-group-ids sg-12c14c6e --count 1 --instance-type t2.micro --key-name cloud-key1 --query 'Instances[0].InstanceId'
"i-01cb4bb3d2d9e5866"
8.To get the public IP :
> aws ec2 describe-instances --instance-ids "i01cb4bb3d2d9e5866" –query "Reservations[0].Instances[0].PublicIpAddress"
"35.161.150.243"

9.Launching a secure pathway to access the instance on the remote machine : 
> ssh -i cloud-key1.pem ec-user@35.161.150.243 

The authenticity of host '35.161.150.243 (35.161.150.243)' can't be established.

> [ec2-user@ip-172-31-46-122 ~]$ sudo yum update


11.Install gcc and fio(for calculating Disk Benchmark) :
> [ec2-user@ip-172-31-46-122 ~]$ sudo yum install gcc fio


12.Transfering files from local machine to remote machine :
> scp –I cloud.key1.pem <files> ec2-user@35.161.150.243
 

13.Do all the tests via SSH :dd,fio,memsweep and Linpack

14. Terminate instance :
> aws ec2 terminate-instances –instance-ids i-01cb4bb3d2d9e5866
