Re: Possible to start/stop an existing EC2 instance

[Adam PAPAI]

As far as I know, the EC2 instances are not support stop/start, but reboot. So you can only terminate the EC2 instances or reboot them. But you can terminate it and create another one on demand. james mintram December 31, 2012 3:00 AM Hi All, I wondered if it were possible, or not then a trivial update to the EC2 plugin to allow it to start/stop an instance that already exists. Currently I have 2 Windows instances, 1 which is 24x7 and is covered in the free tier but its performance is lacking. The other is a High CPU instance that compiles code very fast, however I do not want this running 24x7 due to cost issues, so I have to manually start/stop it when I want to run a large set of builds. If there was a way to automatically start and stop an existing instance given its ID then it finish my CI configuration for now :) Regards,     James Mintram -- Adam PAPAI E-mail: w...@wooh.hu Phone: +3630 3355735 Web: http://www.wooh.hu
