Self-Hosted Instances in Fleet Application Management

Manage and use self-hosted instances in Fleet Application Management, which serves as a central host that connects to the provisioned host.

A self-hosted instance can act as a central hub to monitor and manage several resources. By choosing an instance as a self-hosted instance, you can perform various checks to ensure that your Compute instances are running as expected.
Some examples of checks you can perform using a self-hosted instance include:
  • Instance status: Verify that Compute instances are running after being provisioned.
  • Python version checks: Ensure that the required Python versions are installed on the Compute instances.
  • Library checks: Check if specific libraries, such as encryption libraries, are installed on the Compute instances.

To perform these checks, you can connect your Compute instances to the self-hosted instance, which can then run scripts or commands to verify the status of the instances. For example, you can use the self-hosted instance to check if three Compute instances for web services have the required libraries or Python versions installed.

Important

Ensure you enable the Fleet Application Management plugin on your self-hosted instance and its associated instance. This step ensures that Fleet Application Management can effectively consider these instances for lifecycle operations.
Perform the following self-hosted instances management operations:
