Re: [packer] AMI Tags not propagated to other accounts?

[Byte Flinger]

Thank you very much for the answer Rickard. It is too bad one cannot rely
on that functionality but at least I am now aware of the issue.

Re: [packer] AMI Tags not propagated to other accounts?

[Rickard von Essen]

This is how AWS works. AMI's can be shared with other accounts, basically
giving them read access. But tags are a separate construct, metadata
separate from the resources they "tag". They are not shared and and not
visible from the other account just because the AMI is shared.

The other account can add it's own tags to an AMI shared with it.

Hope that clears things up a bit. Feel free to follow up with further
questions.

[packer] AMI Tags not propagated to other accounts?

[Byte Flinger]

I have built an AWS AMI image using the EBS backed builder and I set the 
"ami_users" to a couple of different accounts so the ami is available for 
using in all of these acounts.

I noticed that the AMI in the account which I built the image on has all 
the AMI tags I configured in the packer configuration however the other 
accounts have no tags whatsoever in that same ami.

Is anybody aware if this is by design or an issue with packer ebs backed 
builder?

Regards
Byte
