autoscaling lab for professional architect – needed to modify userdata with Amazon Linux 2 AMI

For the autoscaling lab, the package "stress" seems to now require the EPEL repo if you are using Amazon Linux 2.  I changed the userdata script as follows:

!/bin/bash

yum update -y

wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm -P /tmp

sudo yum install -y /tmp/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm

yum install -y stress

/usr/bin/stress –cpu 8 –timeout 10m
