An elastic instance is an instance of an elastic image. An elastic instance is created whenever an image is started. An image can be started multiple times, creating multiple instances. Each time an elastic instance is started, one elastic agent is created.

Conceptually, an elastic instance can be thought of as a computer. Elastic agent processes are run on this computer and the elastic image is the boot hard disk. Please note however, that elastic instances are temporary and transient. Any changes that an elastic instance makes to the boot hard drive (e.g. agent log file) are not persisted when the instance is shut down. Any customisations to the instance itself will also be lost when the it is shut down.

To view an elastic instance,

  1. Click the 'Administration' link in the top navigation bar.
  2. Click the 'Instances' link in the left navigation column. The 'Manage Elastic Instances' screen will display.
  3. Click the name of the instance that you want to view, e.g. 'i-05ff716c'. The information for the instance will display (see screenshot below).
    • 情報
      • Current status — this is the status of the elastic instance. Valid values include, 'Pending' (instance starting up), 'Running' and 'Shutting down'.
      • IP — this is the IP address of the elastic instance.
      • Public DNS — this is the public DNS address of the elastic instance.
      • Start Time — this is the start time of the instance, based on the Amazon EC2 timezone (US Eastern Time for Elastic Bamboo). Please note, start time is the time when you send the request to start an instance, not the time when the instance progresses to 'Running' status.
      • Up Time — this is the time that the instance has been running, including the time taken for the instance to start up.
      • Instance Type — Amazon offers a number of instance types that provide different computing capacity. The default instance type for Elastic Bamboo is 'High-CPU Medium Instance', however you can configure this via the Elastic Bamboo Configuration screen. See the Amazon EC2 documentation for further details.
      • Elastic Image — this is the elastic image that your instance was started from. Click the 'Image <image_name>' link to view the image.
      • Elastic Agent — this is the elastic agent process currently running on your elastic instance. Currently Elastic Bamboo only supports one elastic agent per elastic image. Click the 'Elastic Agent on <instance_name>' link to view the elastic agent.

Amazon Web Services Management Console

You can also view information about your elastic instances on the AWS Management Console. Please note, we strongly recommend that you use the console for viewing instance information only. You may experience errors if you attempt to manage your instances outside of Bamboo.
