To check things like cpu, memory, docker information, instance type and various other information about the instance.

Use these commands.

First list the instance in your ecs cluster.

$ aws ecs list-container-instances --cluster default
{
    "containerInstanceArns": [
        "arn:aws:ecs:eu-west-1:0123456789012:container-instance/3434323-343434-fg45-xxxxxxxxxxx"
    ]
}

Then display the information using this command.

$ aws ecs describe-container-instances --cluster default --container-instances 3434323-343434-fg45-xxxxxxxxxxx
