I am trying to use the various tools provided by ec2-ami-tools
Eg,
ec2-create-snapshot -h
....
-K, --private-key KEY
Specify KEY as the private key to use. Defaults to the value of the
EC2_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable (if set). Overrides the default.
-C, --cert CERT
Specify CERT as the X509 certificate to use. Defaults to the value
of the EC2_CERT environment variable (if set). Overrides the default.
-K and -C are two required values, and I cant understand what values are these expecting?
If I create a Keypair from Elasticfox, I get only one file to download and a fingerprint. So which of this need to get where?
