When you use ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder Command Line Interface for Amazon Web Services (AWS) to prepare and deploy ArcGIS Enterprise and ArcGIS Server sites, you provide information about the type of deployment you want by providing the location and name of the JSON file containing the settings you need.
Sample files
Several sample JSON files are included with the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS file you download from My Esri. The JSON samples represent common deployments. There are separate files for preparatory steps—which you can use when you run the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility with the PREP command—and files you can use to create the deployment when you run the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility with the CREATE command.
The following two tables describe the sample files provided with the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility:
| Preparation sample file | Description |
|---|---|
| createnetworkvpc.json | Creates an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) in the AWS region you specify. |
| uploadlicensefile.json | Uploads ArcGIS Server licenses and a Portal for ArcGIS license file to an Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket managed by ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for Amazon Web Services. |
| uploadsslcert.json | Uploads an SSL certificate to the Amazon S3 bucket managed by Cloud Builder and imports the SSL certificate to AWS Certificate Manager. |
| uploadlicenseandcert.json | Uploads ArcGIS Server licenses, a Portal for ArcGIS license, and an SSL certificate to the Amazon S3 bucket managed by Cloud Builder. It also imports the SSL certificate to AWS Certificate Manager. |
| allprep.json | Creates a VPC and uploads ArcGIS Server licenses, a Portal for ArcGIS JSON file, and an SSL certificate to the Amazon S3 bucket managed by ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for AWS. It also imports the SSL certificate to AWS Certificate Manager. |
| Creation sample file | Description |
|---|---|
| baseenterpriseallinone.json | Deploys base ArcGIS Enterprise on a single machine. |
| baseenterprisehawithbds.json | Deploys base ArcGIS Enterprise on two machines—a primary and a standby machine—and adds a spatiotemporal big data store. |
| baseenterpriseallinonewithra.json | Deploys base ArcGIS Enterprise plus a federated ArcGIS Image Server site configured as the portal's raster analysis server. |
| baseenterprisehawithga.json | Deploys base ArcGIS Enterprise on two machines plus a federated ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server site configured as the portal's GeoAnalytics server. |
| baseenterprisehawithih.json | Deploys base ArcGIS Enterprise on two machines plus a federated ArcGIS Image Server site configured as the portal's image hosting server. |
| baseenterprisehawithnotebook.json | Deploys base ArcGIS Enterprise on two machines plus a federated ArcGIS Notebook Server. |
| baseenterprisewithmission.json | Deploys base ArcGIS Enterprise on a single machine plus a federated ArcGIS Mission Server. |
| completeArcGISEnterprise.json | Allows you to create a highly available base ArcGIS Enterprise deployment with all possible federated ArcGIS Server sites. |
| standalonegeoevent.json | Deploys a stand-alone ArcGIS GeoEvent Server site. |
| standaloneserver.json | Deploys a stand-alone ArcGIS GIS Server site. |
| standaloneserverwithsqlegdb.json | Deploys a stand-alone ArcGIS GIS Server site and registers a managed enterprise geodatabase in Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for SQL Server. |
| standaloneserverwithpostgresegdb.json | Deploys a stand-alone ArcGIS GIS Server site and registers a managed enterprise geodatabase in Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL. |
You can copy and alter these files using a text editor or create your own JSON files. If you use the samples, replace sample settings with values specific to your deployment. You can also change which parameters are present in the sample files.
Parameters in the JSON file are grouped together under section (node) headings. These parameters and their groupings are described in the remainder of this topic.
AWS credentials and region
To connect to Amazon Web Services, the command needs your AWS credentials. Credentials can be the access key and secret key for your AWS account, or the AWS profile name for your account. These credentials are required whenever you run the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility, and are grouped under the "AWSCredentials" section.
You also need to specify the AWS region in which you want to deploy. This region must be the same for all components of your deployment.
| Parameter | Description | Required or optional |
|---|---|---|
| "AWSAccessKey" | The access key for your AWS account. | Required if you do not specify the "AWSProfileName" parameter. |
| "AWSSecretKey" | The secret key for your AWS account. | Required if you do not specify the "AWSProfileName" parameter. |
| "AWSProfileName" | The profile name you configured for your AWS account. | Required if you do not specify the "AWSAccessKey" and "AWSSecretKey" parameters. |
| "AWSRegion" | The AWS region where all parts of your deployment will be created. | Required. |
In this example, credentials for authorization are the access and secret keys for the AWS account. The Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances will be launched in AWS region eu-west-2."AWSCredentials": {
"AWSAccessKey": "AKIAINKWSK6MI4YCPA123",
"AWSSecretKey": "ABCD1E2fghIJkLmNOPQzZuXHlWHOPhMqrTmPEpV",
"AWSRegion": "eu-west-2"
}
In this example, the credentials for authentication are the profile name configured for the AWS account. The EC2 instances will be launched in AWS region us-west-1."AWSCredentials": {
"AWSProfileName": "betavpc",
"AWSRegion": "us-west-1"
}
Parameters to use in files for deployment preparation
Before you create a deployment, you must create a VPC and S3 deployment bucket managed by ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for AWS and upload your SSL certificate and ArcGIS software licenses to the S3 bucket. Set parameters in a prep .json file to complete these steps.
Network stack
The "NetworkStack" section is an optional section of the prep file that allows you to create a VPC.
In this example, the utility will create a VPC in AWS zones eu-west-2b and eu-west-2a and assign it a name tag of MyEnterpriseVPC.
"NetworkStack": {
"StackName": "MyEnterpriseVPC",
"AZs": "eu-west-2b,eu-west-2a",
"CreateFlag": true
}
The following table describes each of the parameters you can use in the "NetworkStack" section:
| Parameter | Description | Required or optional |
|---|---|---|
| "StackName" | A unique name tag for your VPC to help you identify it. | Optional; if not specified, a VPC is created with the name tag arcgis-vpc. |
| "AZs" | Specify two AWS availability zones for the VPC. The zones must be within the region you specified under the "AWSCredentials" node. | The "AZs" parameter is required if you include the "NetworkStack" node in your file. |
| "CreateFlag" | Specifies whether to create a VPC (true) or not (false). | The "CreateFlag" parameter is required if you include the "NetworkStack" node in your file. |
ArcGIS Enterprise files
The "ArcGISEnterpriseFiles" section contains information about the licensing and SSL files the utility needs to create your deployment.
ArcGIS Server license files can be .prvc or .ecp files. Portal for ArcGIS licenses are in .json files.
SSL files must be .pfx files.
The following is an example "ArcGISEnterpriseFiles" section with all possible parameters specified:
"ArcGISEnterpriseFiles": {
"PortalLicense": "C:\\Licenses\\portal.json",
"ServerLicense": "C:\\Licenses\\Server.prvc",
"GeoAnalyticsLicense": "C:\\Licenses\\Server_GeoAnalytics.prvc",

Parameters to use in files for deployment creation
To create a deployment, you need to provide information about the software and hardware you want to include in the deployment. Parameters are grouped under the nodes described in the following sections.
Deployment details
At the top of the file, specify a name that will be used for each of the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud instances (machines) in your deployment, the ArcGIS software version you want to deploy (10.6 or later release), and which operating system (either Microsoft Windows or Ubuntu Server) to use for the EC2 instances you deploy. All of these parameters are required except "AMIid".
"DeploymentDetails": {
"DeploymentName": "<name_to_append_to_machines_in_aws_deployment">,
"ArcGISVersion": "<10.6 | 10.6.1 | 10.7 | 10.7.1 | 10.8 | 10.8.1 | 10.9>",
"OperatingSystem": "<Windows | Ubuntu>",
"AMIid": “ami-xxxxxx”
}
The "DeploymentName" parameter must start with an alpha character, can contain only alphanumeric characters, and must be at least three characters in length.
The “OperatingSystem” parameter specifies the operating system to be used in ArcGIS deployments. For Windows it uses Microsoft Windows Server 2019 and for Ubuntu it uses Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS.
The “AMIId” parameter is optional, but if you do specify it, it must be defined under the “DeploymentDetails” node. Specify the “AMIId” value in the following format: ‘ami-xxxxxx’. If you don't know what AMI to use, don’t specify this parameter, and the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS tool will use the latest AMI ID for Windows or Ubuntu based on the “OperatingSystem” parameter value.
Note:
You must specify a value for the “AMIId” parameter if you deploy in Amazon Web Services GovCloud with an Ubuntu operating system.
In this example, the names of all machines in the deployment will start with testservers. Because an AMI ID is not specified, the tool will use the latest Ubuntu AMI ID. "DeploymentDetails": {
"DeploymentName": "testservers",
"ArcGISVersion": "10.9",
"OperatingSystem": "Ubuntu"
}
CloudFormation parameters
The parameters required by the Amazon Web Services CloudFormation templates are organized under the following nodes:
- "Default"—Parameters set here apply to all parts of the deployment. Parameters set under default can be omitted from the other nodes.
- "BaseEnterprise"—Parameters set in this section apply only to the base ArcGIS Enterprise deployment.
- "GeoAnalytics"—Parameters set in this section apply only to a federated ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server site.
- "NotebookServer"—Parameters set in this section apply only to a federated ArcGIS Notebook Server site.
- "MissionServer"—Parameters set in this section apply only to a federated ArcGIS Mission Server site.
- "RasterAnalytics"—Parameters set in this section apply only to federated or stand-alone ArcGIS Image Server sites.
- "ImageHosting"—Parameters set in this section apply only to federated ArcGIS Image Server sites to be used as the portal's image hosting server.
- "Server"—Parameters set in this section apply only to federated or stand-alone ArcGIS GIS Server sites.
- "ImageServer"—Parameters set in this section apply only to federated or stand-alone ArcGIS Image Server sites.
- "GeoEvent"—Parameters set in this section apply only to a federated or stand-alone ArcGIS GeoEvent Server site.
- "Spatiotemporal"—Parameters set in this section apply only to a spatiotemporal big data store component of an enterprise deployment.
- "SQLEGDB"—Parameters set in this section apply only to an enterprise geodatabase in Amazon RDS for SQL Server.
- "PostgresEGDB"—Parameters set in this section apply only to an enterprise geodatabase in Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL.
- "AuroraEGDB"—Parameters set in this section apply only to an enterprise geodatabase in Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL.
Note:
You must include a node for every part of the deployment you want created. For example, if you want to create a base ArcGIS Enterprise deployment, a federated ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server site, and a federated ArcGIS GIS Server site, you must have the "BaseEnterprise", "GeoAnalytics", and "Server" nodes in your configuration file, and these nodes must contain at least one parameter. For example, even if you set the "Federate" and "ServerLicenseFileKeyName" parameters under the "Default" node, you must include at least one of these under the "Server" node; if you do not, the utility will not create a federated ArcGIS GIS Server site.
VPC settings must be defined under the "Default" node. You can use the "VPCId", "Subnet1", and "Subnet2" parameters to define your VPC, or, if you want to reuse a VPC from an existing deployment created with this tool or an Esri CloudFormation template, you can specify the name of the deployment under the "NetworkStackName" parameter instead. The following are descriptions of these parameters:
| Parameter | Description | Required or optional |
|---|---|---|
| "VPCId" | When you created your VPC, AWS assigned it an ID in the format vpc-xxxxxxxx. Provide the ID for your VPC here. If you use the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility to prepare your deployment, this ID is listed in the output file created when you run the utility with the PREP command. | Required if you do not specify the "NetworkStackName" parameter. |
| "Subnet1" | The ID for one of the subnets in your VPC. If you use the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility to prepare your deployment, this ID is listed in the output file created when you run the utility with the PREP command. | Required if you do not specify the "NetworkStackName" parameter. |
| "Subnet2" | The ID for the second subnet in your VPC. If you use the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility to prepare your deployment, this ID is listed in the output file created when you run the utility with the PREP command. | Required if you do not specify the "NetworkStackName" parameter. |
| "NetworkStackName" | The name tag assigned to an existing VPC. | Required if you do not specify the "VPCId", "Subnet1", and "Subnet2" parameters. |
Other parameter values defined under the "Default" node are applicable to some or all of the other nodes in the JSON file. Esri recommends that you use the Default node to define parameters and values that are common across multiple nodes in the deployment. This shortens the configuration file and avoids repetition of parameters and values. For example, if you deploy a base ArcGIS Enterprise and federated ArcGIS GeoEvent Server, and use a wildcard SSL certificate, specify the "SSLCertificateFileKeyName" and "SSLCertificatePassword" parameters under the "Default" node because all the machines in the deployment will use the same certificate.
As shown in the following example, the "VPCId", "Subnet1", and "Subnet2" parameters are used to define the VPC. The root drive size ("InstanceDriveSize"), S3 bucket, administrator user name and password, and the password for the software services ("arcgisUserPassword") apply to all parts of this deployment. Since all ArcGIS Server sites in the deployment will be federated with the portal, "Federate": true is also included under the "Default" node.
"CloudFormationParameters":{
"Default" :{
"VPCId": "vpc-b33fecd5",
"Subnet1": "subnet-7a709d1c",
"Subnet2": "subnet-26f0f76f",
"InstanceDriveSize": "300",
"KeyPairName": "StackTest_Mine",
"SiteadminUserName": "admin",
"SiteadminPassword": "changeit",
"arcgisUserPassword": "Change@1234",
"PostInstallationScript": "none",
"Federate": true
}
}
If you define parameter values in a specific deployment node, the value you specify in that node is used for that part of the deployment. For example, if you define the "InstanceType" parameter in both the "BaseEnterprise" and "Default" nodes, the "InstanceType" value defined in the "BaseEnterprise" node is used for the ArcGIS Enterprise base deployment machines, but the "InstanceType" value defined for the "Default" node is used for the ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server, ArcGIS GIS Server, ArcGIS Image Server, and ArcGIS GeoEvent Server sites you deploy using the same JSON file.

Parameters for ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server, ArcGIS Image Server, and ArcGIS GIS Server sites and the raster analysis and image hosting servers
Parameter values you specify under the "GeoAnalytics", "RasterAnalytics", "ImageHosting", "ImageServer", and "Server" nodes use the Esri CloudFormation templates that launch federated or stand-alone ArcGIS Server sites. Note that ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server sites must always be federated with an ArcGIS Enterprise portal and that to use an ArcGIS Image Server site as a raster analysis server or as an image hosting server, the site must be federated with a portal.
When you create federated ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server and ArcGIS Image Server sites, the ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder CLI for AWS utility configures these sites as your portal's GeoAnalytics, raster analysis, and image hosting servers, respectively; you do not need to configure this manually.
The following table lists all the possible parameters you can set under the "GeoAnalytics", "RasterAnalytics", "ImageHosting", "ImageServer", and "Server" nodes:
