Just note that if you do create an AMI from the Parsec Cloud Prep Tool (this repo) the password will be baked in to the AMI.

In addition there are also some static routes that need to be removed before AMI creation, these static routes are region specific, and will completely prevent AMIs copied to other regions from working.

If you're building a G4 based AMI and have used GPU updater tool to install the driver, also run Remove-AWSCredentialProfile -ProfileName GPUUpdateG4Dn to remove the AWS credential from the machine, otherwise everyone will have access to your AWS account (BAD).

These scripts aren't intended to be converted into a AMI so I haven't tested the functionality

I would test it but the some of the NVidia AMIs are broken as of the 442.19 release today. Looks like they forgot to embed the Amazon security stuff again. I'll certainly try imaging of a vanilla 2019 AMI with the parsec scripts running and see what happens.

I am the sole user of the AMI, so the baked in credentials should not matter (right?).

If a custom AMI creation is not supported, Is there another option how to launch a spot instance without having to setup everything each time?

Not right now

It works fine with a vanilla 2016 server instead of using the Nvidia Gaming. I think you are accidentally using NVidias initialisation script and messing up the drivers after sysprep. Given how bad NVidia are at creating AMI's, I'd suggest not using those images anyway as a general rule. All they have over vanilla is the Nvidia SDK which is downloadable after free registration to the Nvidia developer site.

Steven, it works for me as well, thank you!

It is basically the oposite of this advice:

Q. My cloud machine is stuck at 1366x768
A. You should delete your machine and use the GRID Virtual Workstation variety provided by your cloud provider (it's a check box on GCP)

FWIW I'm using a combination of an AMI created with this tool along with https://github.com/cloudrig/CloudRIG to launch a ready-made cloud machine using Spot Instance pricing. It works awesome! Thank you @jamesstringerparsec for this work of art - any way to buy you a beer?
