Ansible: How to terminate all AWS EC2 instances using Ansible script?

Updated on by   App Shah     crunchify.me/3eovvxU 

Terminate AWS EC2 instances using Ansible

As by now you probably know, I’ve been working on Ansible a lot lately. In this tutorial we will go over how to terminate all AWS EC2 instances programmatically using Ansible script.

Before you go over this tutorial, make sure you have setup Ansible correctly on your laptop/desktop.

On Crunchify, we have more than 30 Ansible tutorials and those are getting so much love from readers/users.

Let’s get started:

Step-1:

Make sure you have setup ansible correctly on your site.

Step-2

Spawn few EC2 instances.

How to Create, Start and Configure Amazon EC2 instance using simple Ansible Script? (spawn VM remotely)

Step-3

Terminate newly spawned EC2 instances.

Create file crunchify_ec2_terminate.yml.

---
- hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  tasks:
    - name: Terminate Instances
      ec2_instance_facts:
        region: us-east-2
      register: ec2_info

    - name: displaying output
      debug: msg="{{item.instance_id}}"
      with_items: "{{ec2_info.instances}}"

    - name: terminate
      ec2:
        instance_ids: "{{item.instance_id}}"
        region: us-east-2
        state: absent
        wait: yes
      with_items: "{{ec2_info.instances}}"
  • ec2_instance_facts module gathers facts about ec2 instances in AWS.
  • ec2 module is use to create, terminate, start or stop an instance in ec2.

State:

  • absent
  • restarted
  • running
  • stopped
Ansible EC2 module state

Execute command:

command: ansible-playbook -vvv crunchify_ec2_terminate.yml

Console Output:

bash-3.2$ ansible-playbook -vvv crunchify_ec2_terminate.yml
