Amazon Machine Images Are Not Available for Selection

Symptom:

When an administrator starts the Add AMI Image wizard, no AMI instances are available for selection. The connection status to the EC2 server is fine.

Solution:

By default, only AMIs that are owned by the owner specified in the EC2 server connection information are available for adding to the inventory. You can change the default so that public AMIs published by Amazon or other users can be made available for use. To allow public AMIs to be added to the inventory, run dpmutil to reconfigure Amazon EC2.
