AWS: Terminating Your Instance






Terminating  Your Instance

After you've finished with the instance that you created for this tutorial, you should clean up by terminating the instance. If you want to do more with this instance before you clean up, see Next Steps.

Important: Terminating an instance effectively deletes it; you can't reconnect to an instance after you've terminated it. If you launched an instance that is not within the AWS Free Tier, you will stop incurring charges for that instance, as soon as the instance status changes to shutting down or terminated. If you'd like to keep your instance for later, but not incur charges, you can stop the instance now and then start it again later.

To terminate your instance

In the navigation pane, choose Instances. In the list of instances, select the instance.

1. Choose Actions, then Instance State, and then choose Terminate.



















2. Choose Yes, Terminate when prompted for confirmation.

















3. After that it will show the status of the Instance to Shutting Down, Amazon EC2 shuts down and terminates your instance. After your instance is terminated, it remains visible on the console for a short while, and then the entry is deleted.

















Please comments and suggestions are always welcome.
