error when using pricer

[varunchandak]

facing this issue whenever I use pricer:

$ awless -p PROFILE -r ap-south-1 inspect -i pricer
[error]   unmarshalling property 'Role' of resource 'i-0d0e5ddcXXXXXXXXX': get property 'cloud:role': '{isLit:true isBnode:false resource: bnode: lit:{typ:xsd:string val:/dev/sda1 langtag:}}' object not resource identifier

Hi, thanks for reporting. You may have an old local model.

• What is your version of awless awless version ?
• Could you also try to run awless sync -e -r ap-south-1 before trying again the pricer ?

Please also note that pricer and all inspectors are, for now, proof-of-concepts of what we can do with awless graph model, rather than reliable source of information. You should take the results of the inspectors with care.

[fxaguessy]

Thanks for your response. Is instance i-0d0e5ddcXXXXXXXXX in region ap-south-1 ?

This bug might be because the pricer inspector loads data from all regions (even if it should not) and perhaps this instance is in a region that has not been synced for a long time and contains properties that are no longer valid.

[varunchandak]

Yup.

And the instance is a fresh one and still in existence. The output for the same instance differs on linux and OSX.

[fxaguessy]

The output for the same instance differs on linux and OSX.

This is strange. Are you talking about the output of awless show i-0d0e5ddcXXXXXXXXX ? Could you please paste here the (anonymized) output of the command on both platforms ?

[varunchandak]

No, the output for pricer differs. On Mac, it's error but on linux, it's working.

Pricer Output: Linux:

[varunchandak]

Also, do note that on Mac I have AssumeRole permissions for aws cli (or awless) usage, whereas on Linux, I have attached a role to the instance.

[fxaguessy]

Thanks for the details. Are the role you are assuming on Mac and the one you are using for the Linux instance the same ? You can get the role you are using, as seen by Amazon, with awless whoami.

It looks like the Linux instance does not have access to the info of instance i-0d0e5..., whereas the Mac instance can access to this data (but, due to a bug, it can not unmarshal it properly).

[varunchandak]

Linux Box:

# awless whoami
ResourceType: assumed-role, Resource: cc-monitor/i-08578c4XXXXXXXXXX, Id: AROAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:i-08578c4XXXXXXXXXX, Account: 55XXXXXXXXXX

Mac Box:

$ awless whoami -p PROFILE
ResourceType: assumed-role, Resource: cc-access/15YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, Id: AROAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY:15YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, Account: 55XXXXXXXXXX
