Here you can enable a variety of AWS Systems Manager (SSM) associations. These associations are what AWS SSM uses to manage different aspects of your EC2 instances. Update SSM agent will try and update the AWS SSM agent installed on your SSM managed EC2 instance. QueryScanPatches will gather information around software patches, GatherInventory will gather information about your EC2 instance so you can see it from the SSM dashboard in the AWS console.
