A company has received a notification in its AWS Personal Health Dashboard that one of its Amazon EBS-backed Amazon EC2 instances is on hardware that is scheduled for maintenance.The instance runs a critical production workload that must be available during normal business hours.
Which steps will ensure that the instance maintenance does not produce an outage?
Configure an Amazon Lambda function to automatically start the instance if it is stopped.
Create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) of the instance and use the AMI to launch a new instance once the existing instance is retired.
Enable termination protection on the EC2 instance.
Stop and start the EC2 instance during a maintenance window outside of normal business hours.
If I’m correct, the answer is:
Stop and start the EC2 instance during a maintenance window outside of normal business hours.
