                      "chmod ugo+x aws-agent_install.sh;",
                      "sudo ./aws-agent_install.sh;",
                      "curl http://localhost:8888/vhostmd"
                    ],
    "workingDirectory":"/tmp",
    "timeoutSeconds":"3600",
    "executionTimeout":"3600"
    }
  } ]
}

Save the document with the name SAP-Data-Provider-Installation-Linux.

   --timeout-seconds 600 --max-concurrency "50" \
