1. Create an RHEL 7.6 or Ubuntu 16.04 LTS EC2 instance.
  2. Install the Amazon Web Services (AWS) command-line interface (CLI):
    1. Install Python 2.7.
    2. Run the following command: 
      sudo curl "https://s3.amazonaws.com/aws-cli/awscli-bundle.zip" -o "awscli-bundle.zip"
    3. Extract the CLI bundle: 
      sudo unzip awscli-bundle.zip
    4. Install the CLI: 
      sudo ./awscli-bundle/install -i /usr/local/aws -b /usr/bin/aws
  3. Download the ASE AWS binary. After downloading the file, copy the ASE file to the /optdirectory.
  4. To untar the binary in the EC2 instance, at the command prompt, enter the following command to untar the ASE file: 
    tar –zxvf ase-rhel-4.0.tar.gz
    tar –zxvf <filename>
  5. To verify that ASE successfully installed, enter the ls command at the command prompt: 
    /opt/$ ls
pingidentity ase-rhel-4.0.tar.gz

    This lists the PingDirectoryand the build's tar files.

  6. Change the directory to /opt/pingidentity/ase/bin.
  7. Run the install_service.sh aws script: 
    /opt/pingidentity/ase/bin$sudo ./install_service.sh aws
