AWS monitoring setup: I create and attach the role for ActiveGate, but it doesn't assume the monitoring role

An error might occur when attaching a role to an EC2 instance. In such cases, you can use curl to retrieve the instance metadata to verify if the role is listed there. Use the following command:

curl http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/info

If the attached role is still not listed in the instance metadata, it often helps to reattach it.

For more information, see Instance Metadata and User Data.
