i ma following below [GitHub](https://github.com/hashicorp/boundary-reference-architecture/tree/main/deployment/aws) repo to setup Boundary on AWS using Terraform. The infra is getting created successfully but when i SSH to worker and controller to see if the service is running or not i don’t see that it is running. I am using below command to check the status:

sudo systemctl status boundary-controller  
sudo systemctl status boundary-worker

Also according to the instructions given in the GitHub Readme i am running below command to deploy the infra using terraform:

terraform apply -target module.aws -var boundary\_bin=C:\Users\Lenovo\Downloads\Softwares\boundary\_0.13.1\_linux\_386 -var pub\_ssh\_key\_path=C:\Users\Lenovo\Desktop.ssh\id\_rsa.pub

where boundary\_bin is the path where the boundary bin for linux is downloaded and pub\_ssh\_key\_path is the path to my public and private SSh keys.  
Can someone please help me what am i not doing right here? Am i using the currect binary bin?

What do the systemctl commands tell you about the status of Boundary on the controllers and workers?
