Description
Hi
It seems t2.micro instances run out of memory when attempting to install SSM agent. Please see attached image.
instance config:
- t2.micro
- redhat 8 (ami: ami-0e7e134863fac4946)
- same network configuration of a t3.small which installs it successfully.

Any ideas ?

Research direction
Start with the reported installation failure on the t2.micro using Red Hat 8 AMI ami-0e7e134863fac4946, and compare it with the successful t3.small installation under the same network configuration. Inspect the attached image and reproduce the installation if possible; done means identifying the memory-related cause and documenting or resolving the failure.
