To register an on-premises instance

The following register example registers an on-premises instance with AWS CodeDeploy, associates in AWS CodeDeploy the specified on-premises instance tag with the registered instance, and creates an on-premises configuration file that can be copied to the instance. It does not create the IAM user, nor does it install the AWS CodeDeploy Agent on the instance.

aws deploy register \
    --instance-name AssetTag12010298EX \
    --iam-user-arn arn:aws:iam::80398EXAMPLE:user/CodeDeployUser-OnPrem \
    --tags Key=Name,Value=CodeDeployDemo-OnPrem \
    --region us-west-2

Output:

Registering the on-premises instance... DONE
Adding tags to the on-premises instance... DONE
Copy the on-premises configuration file named codedeploy.onpremises.yml to the on-premises instance, and run the following command on the on-premises instance to install and configure the AWS CodeDeploy Agent:
aws deploy install --config-file codedeploy.onpremises.yml
