Your Company is using an AWS CodeDeploy for deployment of applications to EC2 instance. For a financial application project to be deployed in the us-east region, log files are saved in the EC2 instance launched in this region. A new joinee mistakenly deleted the deployment log file for AWS CodeDeploy. Which of the following can be done to create a new log file?

Answer options:

A.AWS CodeDeploy will automatically create a replacement file.
B.Restore deployment log file from backup file.
C.Restart CodeDeployAgent Service.
D.Restart EC2 instance with AWS CodeDeploy agent.

Correct Answer – C
 If a deployment log file is deleted, a new log file can be created by restarting the CodeDeployAgent service using the following commands,
For Windows,
o powershell.exe -Command Restart-Service -Name codedeployagent
For Linux
o sudo service codedeploy-agent stop
o sudo service codedeploy-agent start
Option A is incorrect as AWS CodeDeploy does not create a replacement file automatically.
Option B is incorrect as this is not a valid option for creating a new log file for AWS CodeDeploy.
Option D is incorrect as Restarting the EC2 instance will impact all services running on that instance.
