CloudOps Orchestration Service:Configuration list management

Use QUICK SETUP in CloudOps Orchestration Service (OOS) to collect metadata from your Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances across one or multiple accounts. A configuration list defines which instances to target and what data to collect, letting you centralize inventory data without manual scripting.

Use QUICK SETUP in OOS to create a configuration list that collects metadata from your ECS instances. A configuration list defines which instances to target and what data to collect, across one account or multiple accounts via Resource Directory. For more information about configuration lists, see Overview.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that you have:

• An OOS-enabled account with permission to access QUICK SETUP

For cross-account collection, also complete the following:

• Resource Directory enabled for your organization

• Administrator or delegated administrator access

• Trusted access enabled with Resource Orchestration Service (ROS) set as the trusted service — see Manage delegated administrator accounts

If you are collecting from the current account only, no additional setup is required.

Create a configuration list

1. Log on to the OOS console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, click QUICK SETUP.

3. On the Configuration Library tab, find the Configuration List Management card and click Create.

4. In the Configuration Description field, enter a description to identify the configuration list.

5. In the Cross account configuration section, select the account scope:

   • Current Account (default): Collect from instances in the current account only.

   • Across Accounts (Resource Directory): Collect from instances across multiple accounts. Requires trusted access with ROS set as the trusted service — see Prerequisites above.

6. In the Select Instances section, specify the regions and nodes the configuration list applies to.

Region targeting — Set the SelectRegion parameter:

• • Deploy in Current Region: Applies to the region selected in the OOS console top navigation bar.

  • Deploy in Another Region: Applies to one or more regions that you select.

• Node targeting — Set the Select Role parameter:

  • If Deploy in Current Region is selected: choose Manually Select Instances, Specify Instance Tags, Specify Resource Group, or Select All.

  • If Deploy in Another Region is selected: choose Specify Instance Tags or Select All.

1. In the Configure Parameters section, set the collection schedule and data types:

   • ScheduleExpression: Set the collection interval in minutes, hours, or days. The minimum interval is 30 minutes.

   • PolicyForInventoryDataCollection: Select the types of metadata to collect.

1. Click Create.

After the configuration list is created, view the collected data on the QUICK SETUP page, or navigate to Server Management > Inventory Management in the left-side navigation pane.
