Question

By default, an instance gets rebooted when we try to create an AMI from it

Answer 1

dont dont dont dont.....

Answer 2

True

Explanation:

• The instance would be rebooted at the time of the creation of an AMI. This is done in order that the image is fully saved to disk. In case we do not want it to reboot, then we must select the No reboot option
• The reboot begins when we start the AMI creation process instantly before the snapshots start. Your instance could change the volume contents after the snapshot begins, however, the snapshot process will not be able to view anything which took place after the snapshot process began. Essentially, the snapshot process has access to a frozen volume copy as it actually existed when the snapshot began.
• If we reboot and begin a snapshot when the volumes are unmounted and idle the resulting snapshot captures a perfect image of what was on the volume during that reboot, irrespective of how long it takes to create
