To successfully operate AWS Mainframe Modernization EC2 instances deployed via our AWS Marketplace listing, it is imperative to configure AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) role and policy. This specifically tailored IAM setup is not optional; it authorizes your Amazon EC2 instances to interact with the AWS Marketplace Service. The IAM role and policy allow the AWS Mainframe Modernization service to accurately record usage data, which is essential for precise billing. Failing to implement this configuration may lead to unsuccessful data replication attempts and operational disruptions.
  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the IAM console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/.
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Policies.
  3. If this is your first-time choosing Policies, the Welcome to Managed Policies page appears. Choose Get Started.
  4. At the top of the page, choose Create policy.

            "Action": [
                    "aws-marketplace:MeterUsage"
            ],
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Resource": "*"
            }
        ]
    }
