Amazon Web Services
Create machines on Amazon Web Services. To create machines on Amazon Web Services, you must supply two required parameters:
- Access Key ID
- Secret Access Key
Obtain your IDs and Keys from AWS.
To create the machine instance, specify --driver amazonec2 and the three required parameters.
$ docker-machine create --driver amazonec2 --amazonec2-access-key AKI******* --amazonec2-secret-key 8T93C******* aws01
Options
--amazonec2-access-key: required Your access key id for the Amazon Web Services API.--amazonec2-secret-key: required Your secret access key for the Amazon Web Services API.--amazonec2-session-token: Your session token for the Amazon Web Services API.--amazonec2-ami: The AMI ID of the instance to use.--amazonec2-region: The region to use when launching the instance.--amazonec2-vpc-id: Your VPC ID to launch the instance in.--amazonec2-zone: The AWS zone to launch the instance in (i.e. one of a,b,c,d,e).--amazonec2-subnet-id: AWS VPC subnet id.--amazonec2-security-group: AWS VPC security group name.--amazonec2-tags: AWS extra tag key-value pairs (comma-separated, e.g. key1,value1,key2,value2).--amazonec2-instance-type: The instance type to run.--amazonec2-device-name: The root device name of the instance.--amazonec2-root-size: The root disk size of the instance (in GB).--amazonec2-volume-type: The Amazon EBS volume type to be attached to the instance.--amazonec2-iam-instance-profile: The AWS IAM role name to be used as the instance profile.--amazonec2-ssh-user: SSH Login user name.--amazonec2-request-spot-instance: Use spot instances.--amazonec2-spot-price: Spot instance bid price (in dollars). Require the--amazonec2-request-spot-instanceflag.--amazonec2-use-private-address: Use the private IP address for docker-machine, but still create a public IP address.--amazonec2-private-address-only: Use the private IP address only.--amazonec2-monitoring: Enable CloudWatch Monitoring.--amazonec2-use-ebs-optimized-instance: Create an EBS Optimized Instance, instance type must support it.
By default, the Amazon EC2 driver will use a daily image of Ubuntu 15.10 LTS.

Security Group
Note that a security group will be created and associated to the host. This security group will have the following ports opened inbound :
- ssh (22/tcp)
- docker (2376/tcp)
- swarm (3376/tcp), only if the node is a swarm master
If you specify a security group yourself using the --amazonec2-security-group flag, the above ports will be checked and opened and the security group modified.
If you want more ports to be opened, like application specific ports, use the aws console and modify the configuration manually.
VPC ID
We determine your default vpc id at the start of a command.
In some cases, either because your account does not have a default vpc, or you don't want to use the default one, you can specify a vpc with the --amazonec2-vpc-id flag.
To find the VPC ID:
-
Login to the AWS console
-
Go to Services -> VPC -> Your VPCs.
-
Locate the VPC ID you want from the VPC column.
-
Go to Services -> VPC -> Subnets. Examine the Availability Zone column to verify that zone
aexists and matches your VPC ID.For example,
us-east1-ais in theaavailability zone. If theazone is not present, you can create a new subnet in that zone or specify a different zone when you create the machine.
To create a machine with a non-default vpc-id:
$ docker-machine create --driver amazonec2 --amazonec2-access-key AKI******* --amazonec2-secret-key 8T93C********* --amazonec2-vpc-id vpc-****** aws02
This example assumes the VPC ID was found in the a availability zone. Use the--amazonec2-zone flag to specify a zone other than the a zone. For example, --amazonec2-zone c signifies us-east1-c.
