PART 1

1.       On EC2 Dashboard > Selecting Running Instances > Select Jenkins-prd-cicd-linux and Click Actions > Image > Create Image.

2.       Name it as jenkins-prd-cicd-linux-09-17-2019.

 

3.       AWS would create image under Images > AMIs            

Part 2 .

4.       Now log onto the ec2 instance via SSH and type the below command to update all.

 Syntax :  1. sudo su

                2. yum update

 And hit Y or yes.

            

5.       Then log into the Jenkins via Web GUI

For example : <ip address>:8080

 Click on Plugin Manager > scroll down > Select All > Download and Install.

     This would take few minutes to download all plugins. Once you get notified on Jenkins that all the services are downloaded and Installed, and then please confirm with the Developer (Abe) if everything looks good.
