View deployment log data

• Note Logs are not supported for AWS Lambda or Amazon ECS deployments. They can be created for EC2/On-Premises deployments only.

Stop a deployment

• Note If your deployment is a blue/green deployment through AWS CloudFormation, you cannot perform this task in the CodeDeploy console. Go to the AWS CloudFormation console to perform this task.

Redeploy and roll back a deployment

• Note You can use Amazon Simple Notification Service to receive a notification whenever a deployment is rolled back automatically. For information, see Monitoring deployments with Amazon SNS event notifications.

• Note If you remove an instance from a deployment group, CodeDeploy does not uninstall anything that might have already been installed on that instance.

Deploy an application in a different AWS account

• Important As you create the cross-account IAM role, make a note of the details you will need to gain access to the production account. To use the AWS Management Console to switch roles, you will need to supply either of the following: A URL for accessing the production account with the assumed role's credentials. You will find the URL on the Review page, which is displayed at the end of the cross-account role creation process. The name of the cross-account role and either the account ID number or alias. To use the AWS CLI to switch roles, you will need to supply the following: The ARN of the cross-account role you will assume.

Validate a deployment package on a local machine

• Note The codedeploy-local command is installed in the following locations: On Amazon Linux, RHEL, or Ubuntu Server: /opt/codedeploy-agent/bin. On Windows Server: C:\ProgramData\Amazon\CodeDeploy\bin.
