A. Create a new patching baseline in Patch Manager. Specify Amazon Linux 2 as the product. Specify Security as the classification. Set the automatic approval for patches to 0 days. Ensure that the new patching baseline is the designated default for Amazon Linux 2.
B. Use the Patch Now option with the scan and install operation in the Patch Manager console to apply patches against the baseline to all nodes. Specify an Amazon S3 bucket as the patching log storage option.
C. Use the Clone function of Patch Manager to create a copy of the AWS-AmazonLmux2DefaultPatchBaseline built-in baseline. Set the automatic approval for patches to 1 day.
D. Create a patch policy that patches all managed nodes and sends a patch operation log output to an Amazon S3 bucket. Use a custom scan schedule to set Patch Manager to check every hour for new patches. Assign the baseline to the patch policy.
E. Use Systems Manager Application Manager to inspect the package versions that were installed on the EC2 instances. Additionally use Application Manager to validate that the patches were correctly installed.
