- create a snapshot of an instance
- create an instance of a snapshot
Example...
instances -> pa-jenkins-win-test -> right-click, Create Image ->
{
name: pa-jenkins-win-test,
AMI ID: ami-57cadc3d
}
This creates a new "AMI Image"- WARNING: The source machine will be rebooted!
monitoring it, waiting for it to be ready... ready. man that took a while.
Select AMI -> rightclick -> Launch...
instance type: t2.medium (same as original; 2 vCPUs, 4GB mem)
config: SELECT THE SAME SUBNET (us-east-1d) so on the same LAN and can ping each other; (all other defaults)
storage: (default)
tag instance: { name: "pa-jenkins-win-test-older" }
security: select existing { "pa-shared immed_inno_group raleigh-windows-dev" } (as per Brad, previously - note that "raleigh" is no longer available)
LAUNCH
---
select an existing key pair or create a new pair
let's use the existing ones since this is a shared resource
2014Dec25_air.pem (it's in my docs repo)
----
monitor it, wait for it to be created...
because it was cloned from a machine that had the password changed, you can't use the existing key to regenerate
i didn't realize it was changed??
anyway, it should be the exact same way to connect to test, but with a diff ip/hostname (*-older)
yep. switched IP to 172.30.3.208 and it's good to go!
