If you use Amazon Web Services EC2, maintaining an inventory file might not be the best approach, because hosts may come and go over time, be managed by external applications, or you might even be using AWS autoscaling. For this reason, you can use the `EC2 external inventory <https://raw.github.com/ansible/ansible/devel/plugins/inventory/ec2.py>`_ script.
You can use this script in one of two ways. The easiest is to use Ansible's ``-i`` command line option and specify the path to the script after
marking it executable.
marking it executable::
ansible -i ec2.py -u ubuntu us-east-1d -m ping
The second option is to copy the script to `/etc/ansible/hosts` and `chmod +x` it. You will also need to copy the `ec2.ini <https://raw.github.com/ansible/ansible/devel/plugins/inventory/ec2.ini>`_ file to `/etc/ansible/ec2.ini`. Then you can run ansible as you would normally.
