ssm-agent trying to write to wrong region

When I execute aws SSM-Agent send-command on an instance, the SSM-Agent tries to write the results to an S3 bucket in another region.

How do I specify what region the target S3 bucket is in?

Here's the command and error I'm currently getting.

Execute the following from server A: aws ssm send-command --document-name "AWS-RunShellScript" --document-version "1" --targets '[{"Key":"InstanceIds","Values":[""]}]' --parameters '{"workingDirectory":[""],"executionTimeout":["3600"],"commands":["ps ax"]}' --timeout-seconds 600 --max-concurrency "50" --max-errors "0" --output-s3-bucket-name "" --region us-east-1

And the log on server B shows:

Failed uploading /var/lib/amazon/ssm/<my-instance>/document/orchestration/<command-id>/awsrunShellScript/0.awsrunShellScript/stdout to s3://<my-bucket>/<command-id>/<my-instance>/awsrunShellScript/0.awsrunShellScript/stdout err:BucketRegionError: incorrect region, the bucket is not in 'eu-west-1' region

I don't have any resources in eu-west-1

Hi, I would like to suggest checking the region received by SSM in the environment variable AWS_SSM_REGION_NAME during the execution of the command. One test would be as below: aws ssm send-command --document-name AWS-RunShellScript --instance-id i-0782222b6cb7bd64b --parameters commands=['env'] There could be a stale system profile which may be overriding the region. But we can investigate further after getting the result of above command - Ketanbhut
Can't post the whole output in StackExchange comments (too long) but here's the line with the AWS_SSM_REGION_NAME: "AWS_SSM_REGION_NAME=us-east-1". So that looks like the correct region. - yzpilot
