Host configuration script examples for Deadline Cloud

Host configuration scripts run with elevated privileges on service-managed fleet workers, which lets you install software, configure runtimes, and perform other administrative tasks. The host_configuration_scripts directory in the deadline-cloud-samples repository includes sample scripts for common configuration tasks.

To attach a script to a fleet, use the Deadline Cloud console or the update-fleet CLI command. For details, see Run host configuration scripts with administrator privileges.

Fleet host configuration logs stream to the fleet's CloudWatch log group (for example, /aws/deadline/farm-FARM_ID/fleet-FLEET_ID). Each worker has a dedicated log stream that includes the Running Host Configuration Script and Finished running Host Configuration Script, exit code: banners.
