EC2 Security Controls: Data Lifecycle Manager

My Saved Presets

Configure a Data Lifecycle Manager (DLM) policy to automate the creation, retention, and deletion of snapshots taken to back up your Amazon EBS volumes.

Configure the following settings:

Targets: Identify target instances or volumes using assigned tags.
Schedule: Configure a schedule for snapshots to be taken as well as retention policy.
Tags: Configure snapshot tags which can include tags copied from the original volume, as well as additional tags.
IAM Role: By default, the CFN template assumes the AWSDataLifecycleManagerDefaultRole IAM role already exists in the account (Which can be created using aws dlm create-default-role CLI command). Alternatively, select the option to create a new IAM role.
