positive.code: title: Initializing BOSH environment on AWS
  ---
  
  This document shows how to initialize a BOSH environment on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
  
  ## <a id="create-manifest"></a>Step 1: Create a Deployment Manifest
  
  1. Create a deployment directory to store your deployment manifest for the Director.
  
      <pre class='terminal'>
      $ mkdir ~/my-bosh
      </pre>
  
  1. Create a deployment manifest YAML file based on the example below.
  
      Copy and paste the template into a text editor and save the manifest to your deployment directory as `bosh.yml`.
  
      In the template, you must replace the `ELASTIC-IP-ADDRESS`, `SUBNET-ID`, `AVAILABILITY-ZONE`, `ACCESS-KEY-ID`, and `SECRET-ACCESS-KEY` properties. We describe replacing these properties in [Step 2: Prepare an AWS Account](#prepare-aws).
