Features

EC2 Runbooks

Removing IAM Instance Profile - Detaches the current IAM Instance Profile of an instance.
Enable Termination Protection - Enables termination protection for an instance. This gives an extra step to prevent accidental termination of an instance.
Set Shutdown Behavior to Stop - Sets shutdown behavior to stop guarantees that the shutting down the instance will not result to termination of the instance.
Taking EBS Snapshot and Export - Creates latest EBS snapshot from volumes of an instance and possibly send it to a quarantine AWS account. See Setup section below on how to configure env variables for this runbook.

Setup

Setup your AWS credentials (~/.aws/credentials) by following this guide.
Add AWS_REGION in your environment variables. Here's an example with AWS_REGION set to "ap-southeast-2":

$ export AWS_REGION="ap-southeast-2"
...

Required environment variables. Some runbooks require you to define certain env variables.

EBS Snapshot export runbook:

export QUARANTINE_AWS_REGION="ap-southeast-1"
export QUARANTINE_AWS_ACCOUNTS="0000,0001,0002"
export TRANSFER_ALL_SNAPSHOTS="false"

QUARANTINE_AWS_REGION - the region used for the quarantine AWS
account. If not defined, this will use the AWS REGION of the current AWS account.
QUARANTINE_AWS_ACCOUNTS - list of quarantine AWS account whom to share the snapshots to. If not defined, the current AWS account will be treated as the quarantine AWS account.
TRANSFER_ALL_SNAPSHOTS - decides whether to copy and share just the latest snapshot or all of them.

Usage

`execute` command

Runs each of the runbooks on selected AWS instance
Loads the list of instances available for lock down.
