1. Install AWS CLI tools
   • Note: Not on your virtual machine https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/install-cliv1.html
   • Confiture your account for AWS CLI
     • Configure your AWS account for CLI tool
     • Go to your AWS class room

   • You can use wget command or simply copy it from your host machine.
5. Execute submit.bash from youre your virtual machine.
6. Copy the output file (phase1.txt) for submission later.
7. Export the virtual machine to the supported format.
   • Open Virtualization Archive (OVA), Virtual Machine Disk (VMDK), Virtual Hard Disk (VHD/VHDX), and raw
   • E.g. onepiece.ova
8. Upload the VM to AWS S3
   • Create two buckets on S3
     • One is for your vm image
     • One is for the converted image.
   • Upload your image to the first bucket.
9. Create Role "vmimport"
   1. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vm-import/latest/userguide/vmie_prereqs.html#vmimport-role

How to use submit.txt

1. Change it to submit.sh and add execution permission to it. (chmod u+x submit.sh)
2. For graduate students, you need to use it twice.
   • First-time is on your local virtual machine. Second-time is on the cloud.
3. For undergraduate students, you just need to run it on the cloud after you finish migrating the VM to the cloud.
