Hi all,

Trying to browse guest files and folders to perform a restore on an EC2 instance but I’m getting this error  "The required SSM Agent is not installed on the instance".

Can someone help?

Hi @AlexAsks 

Typically, this can indicate that SSM Agent isn’t installed, or up to date to the latest version so I would suggest taking a look at that first.

If you need assistance, please review the following Metallic documentation: Configuring Agentless File Recovery for Amazon

Thanks,

Mike
