CAUTION:

  • Currently, AWS EC2 instances that are preinstalled with Active Roles are not available on AWS Marketplace. However, with the AWS subscription you can create virtual machines or EC2 instances, install Active Roles, and configure them using the prerequisites and the procedure provided in the Active Roles on Azure and AWS Marketplace User Guide.
  • The configurations mentioned here have limited support depending on the quantity of Dynamic Groups (DG), Managed Units (MU), policies, scripts, workflows, and other infrastructural considerations. One Identity reserves the right to withhold support until the customer moves the configuration inline with the Supported configurations.
