Regarding Keypair

Hi There,

Good day!!!

We have launched instance last year using AMI which is from AWS Marketplace.

It is Linux based Instance, While launching the instance key pair is required or not ? And if the keypair is lost what are the possible ways to recover/login to access the instance

Kindly advise , how we proceed further

While launching the instance key pair is required or not ?

Strictly speaking no, a keypair isn't required as a prerequisite for an instance being launched. Although if a keypair is not provided then in most cases you won't be able to login to the EC2 instance, unless the AMI provides another method - check the documentation for the AMI.

And if the keypair is lost what are the possible ways to recover/login to access the instance

The process for replacing a lost keypair with a new one is here https://repost.aws/knowledge-center/user-data-replace-key-pair-ec2

And the associated video that walks you through the process is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5V2hKFj9_SI
