aws-ec2-ami-backup-replica (script aws-ec2-ami-backup-replica.sh)

Shell script for backup ec2 with ami and cross region replica fork from https://github.com/pavlops/aws-ami-backups

This script starts from the script of https://github.com/pavlops/aws-ami-backups but has been improved in these points:

1. Removed the InstanceId parameter and the Identifier parameter

2. Backs up all hooks in running state and those in stopped state with the tag backup_if_stopped = True

3. Create a replica in eu-central-1 (or you must change line 111)

Requirements:

1. Ec2 must be in eu-west-1 or you have to change the line 111 Ec2 source region can be setup in variable $sourceregion
2. Replica is in eu-central-1 (or you must change line 111) Ora change variable $destregion
3. The server from which it is launched must have the aws profile configured
4. Aws cli

Usage:

 ./aws-ec2-ami-backup-replica.sh retentiondays profile 

A future version will also support the region

UPDATE 09/06/2021

• Added support for choosing regions in variable
• Added search for instances with tag value backup_if_stopped True or true
• Added deleting old images from destination region
