Adding free disk space metrics to AWS CloudWatch

Could anyone explain the following based on this article on how to add disk space metrics to AWs CloudWatch by @VolkanPaksoy: https://volkanpaksoy.com/archive/2018/12/19/Monitoring-EC2-Instance-Disk-Space-with-AWS-CloudWatch/

Step 5: The UI has changed since the posting. Could anyone explain this step in more details, using the latest UI?

Step 6: Can this step be done using the AWS Management site? Or does it require logging in to the actual EC2?

And, regarding logs: can logs stored in %PROGRAMDATA%\Amazon\SSM\Logs\ be deleted without any issues? Is there any other place AWS logs are stored? I think they are eating up ALOT of my disk space.

Thanks!

AWS CloudWatch Agent for Windows already included Free Disk Space monitoring.

Please follow the guide on running the Wizard from this documentation: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/create-cloudwatch-agent-configuration-file-wizard.html
