Add Dedicated Hosts to a host resource group in License Manager - AWS License Manager

Add Dedicated Hosts to a host resource group in License Manager

You can add your existing hosts to a host resource group from the AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or AWS API. To add your hosts, you must be the AWS account owner where you created the Dedicated Host and host resource groups. If your host resource group lists allowed self-managed licenses and instances types, the host you add must match these requirements.

Note

If you stop instances and want to restart them, you must perform the following two tasks:

  • Modify the instance to point to the host resource group.

  • Associate self-managed licenses to match the host resource group.

There is no limit to the number of Dedicated Hosts that you can add to a host resource group. For more information about Resource Groups, see AWS Resource Groups User Guide.

Use the following steps to add one or more Dedicated Hosts to a resource group:

  1. Log into the License Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/license-manager/.

  2. Choose Host resource groups.

  3. From the list of host resource group names, click on the name of the host resource group where you want to add the Dedicated Host.

  4. Choose Dedicated Hosts.

  5. Choose Add.

  6. Choose one or more Dedicated Hosts to add to the host resource group.

  7. Choose Add.

    Adding the host may take 1 - 2 minutes, and then it appears in the list of Dedicated Hosts.
