EC2 Scan & AWS Estate Discovery

The Both option in DMC runs an EC2 Scan and an AWS Estate Discovery together in a single pass, giving Dr Migrate in-guest server data, CloudWatch metrics, and a complete AWS resource and cost inventory without a second scan run.

Before you start¶

Complete all prerequisites from both the EC2 Scan and AWS Estate Discovery pages before proceeding:

• A collector host inside your AWS environment (Windows, outbound HTTPS 443 to AWS service endpoints)
• A collector identity (IAM role) with permission to assume the scan role in each target account
• A scan role in every target account, combining the EC2 Scan and AWS Estate Discovery permissions policies
• One in-server access method configured (SSM recommended, or SSH/WinRM) for EC2 Scan
• AWS Config and Cost Explorer enabled for Estate Discovery
• Admin-level credentials for target servers (EC2 Scan only)

Running the scan¶

On the DMC main screen, select AWS, then select Both when prompted to choose a scan type.
