Launch a New QNX AMI
This section recommends the settings you should use when launching your own QNX AMI instance.
You must be familiar with launching an instance from the Amazon EC2 console.
For details, follow the instructions to Quickly launch an instance
in the Amazon EC2 User Guide at
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-launch-instance-wizard.html.
To launch a new QNX AMI instance,
select a QNX AMI from Application and OS Images (Amazon Machine Image);
enter QNX into the search bar
and find the QNX AMI under AWS Marketplace AMIs.
For the other parameters, we recommend the following settings:
- Under Network settings, choose Edit. Choose your desired VPC and security group, then choose Enable for Auto-assign public IP.
- Under Storage (volumes), choose Advanced to reveal the EBS Volumes details. Open the volume details and choose Yes for Delete on termination. If necessary, then you may also add more storage at this stage.
connect to your existing instance.
When the instance first boots, the instance terminal prompts you to input new passwords for the root user and the qnxuser user. In the EC2 serial console, the first prompt appears when you give keyboard focus to the terminal and press ENTER.
