1. Prepare CSV File: Create a CSV file containing a list of server names or IP addresses where you want to install the SSM agent. Save this file with a suitable name, for example, servers.csv
. Ensure that the CSV file has a header (e.g., ServerName
).
2. Install SSM Agent Script: Write a PowerShell script that reads the CSV file, iterates through each server, and installs the SSM agent.
Below is the PowerShell script that accomplishes this task:
# Read server names from CSV file
$servers = Import-Csv -Path "C:\Path\to\servers.csv"
# Loop through each server and install SSM agent
foreach ($server in $servers) {
$serverName = $server.ServerName
Write-Host "Installing SSM agent on $serverName"
# Use PowerShell remoting to install SSM agent on the remote server
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $serverName -ScriptBlock {
# Download SSM agent installer
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://s3.amazonaws.com/ec2-downloads-windows/SSMAgent/latest/windows_amd64/AmazonSSMAgentSetup.exe" -OutFile "$env:TEMP\AmazonSSMAgentSetup.exe"
# Install SSM agent
Start-Process -FilePath "$env:TEMP\AmazonSSMAgentSetup.exe" -ArgumentList "/S" -Wait
}
Write-Host "SSM agent installed on $serverName"
}
Replace "C:\Path\to\servers.csv"
with the actual path to your CSV file.
Note: Ensure that you have appropriate permissions and network access to remotely install software on the target servers. Test the script in a non-production environment before deploying it to production servers.
