Exploring nodes - AWS Systems Manager

Exploring nodes

You can use the Explore nodes page in Systems Manager to review details of managed nodes in your organization or account according to the criteria you specify in filters. You can also use Systems Manager integration with Amazon Q Developer (Amazon Q), an AWS generative AI solution, to search using text prompts.

Before you begin

In order to use the Explore nodes feature, you must first onboard your organization or account to the unified Systems Manager console. For more information, see Setting up Systems Manager unified console for an organization.

After onboarding, open the Systems Manager console and choose Explore nodes.

Note

If you've created an aggregator index for Resource Explorer in a Region different than your home Region, Systems Manager demotes the current index. Then, Systems Manager promotes the local index in your home Region as the new aggregator index. During this time, only nodes for your home Region are displayed. This process can take up to 24 hours to complete.
