Step 1: Import an Amazon OpenSearch domain

To use the Centralized Logging with OpenSearch solution for the first time, you must import Amazon OpenSearch Service domains first.

Centralized Logging with OpenSearch supports Amazon OpenSearch domain with fine-grained access control enabled within a VPC only.

Important

Currently, Centralized Logging with OpenSearch supports Amazon OpenSearch Service with OpenSearch 1.3 or later.

Prerequisite

At least one Amazon OpenSearch Service domain within VPC. If you don't have an Amazon OpenSearch Service domain yet, you can create an Amazon OpenSearch Service domain within VPC. See Launching your Amazon OpenSearch Service domains within a VPC.

Steps

Use the following procedure to import an Amazon OpenSearch Service domain through the Centralized Logging with OpenSearch console.

  1. Sign in to the Centralized Logging with OpenSearch console.
  2. In the navigation pane, under Domains, choose Import OpenSearch Domain.
  3. On the Step 1. Select domain page, choose a domain from the dropdown list.
  4. Choose Next.
  5. On the Step 2. Configure network page, under Network creation, choose Automatic. If your Centralized Logging with OpenSearch and OpenSearch domains reside in two different VPCs, the Automatic mode will create a VPC Peering Connection between them, and update route tables. See details in Set up VPC Peering.
  6. On the Step 3. Create tags page, choose Import.
