[All AWS Certified DevOps Engineer - Professional DOP-C02 Questions]

An Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group manages EC2 instances that were created from an AMI. The AMI has the AWS Systems Manager Agent installed. When an EC2 instance is launched into the Auto Scaling group, tags are applied to the EC2 instance.

EC2 instances that are launched by the Auto Scaling group must have the correct operating system configuration.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A. Create a Systems Manager Run Command document that configures the desired instance configuration. Set up Systems Manager Compliance to invoke the Run Command document when the EC2 instances are not in compliance with the most recent patches.
B. Create a Systems Manager State Manager association that links to the Systems Manager command document. Create a tag query that runs immediately.
C. Create a Systems Manager Run Command task that specifies the desired instance configuration. Create a maintenance window in Systems Manager Maintenance Windows that runs daily. Register the Run Command task against the maintenance window. Designate the targets.
D. Create a Systems Manager Patch Manager patch baseline and a patch group that use the same tags that the Auto Scaling group applies. Register the patch group with the patch baseline. Define a Systems Manager command document to patch the instances Invoke the document by using Systems Manager Run Command.

Option B: Create a Systems Manager State Manager association that links to the Systems Manager command document. Create a tag query that runs immediately. Here’s why: State Manager allows you to define and maintain consistent configuration of your instances. By creating an association that links to the command document, you can ensure that the desired configuration is applied as soon as the instances are launched. Using a tag query ensures that the configuration is applied to the correct instances based on their tags, which are applied by the Auto Scaling group.

Selected Answer: B

State Manager ensures that all instances launched by the Auto Scaling group automatically receive the desired configuration which immediately applies when instances are launched. While the primary focus of Option D is on patch management (applying updates and patches) rather than configuring the overall state of the operating system. Using Run Command is very AD-hoc which means you need to time the launching of the EC2 instance with the command and might not provide the continuous assurance that the configuration is maintained.
