7.5.2 standalone install on EC2 with rhel 8
Questions for doing a new standalone install in AWS:
1) The untar / install process can be done as root or oracle.
* Where does the installation occur by default?
* Are files/directories owned by the account performing the install?
2) What services need to be running, and do they run as root? (Our current
7.0.2 install has aveksa_server, aveksa_watchdog, and afx_server.)
3) Security groups are mentioned in passing in documentation. Are there any
ingress port requirements to the Aveksa EC2 instance? Does the EC2 instance
contact anything other than the RDS database?
4) Is installing on EFS supported? We highly prefer not putting applications
on the root disk of EC2.

Default install is in /home/oracle
Post install, files are owner by oracle user
2\. in addition to the services you mentioned, if you are using remote agent ,
this service will be used - aveksa_agent
3\. AFX and remote agent are initiating connection to SecurID IGL.
If you are not using a remote agent, then the connectivity (to different
endpoints) will be initiated from EC2.

4\. Pretty sure it wasn't tested/certified with EFS. Will check internally if
EFS can be used
