This tab allows you to specify advanced options for your new instance.
You can override the kernel and RAM disk IDs, enable monitoring, and add additional storage,
if applicable.
-
You can override the kernel ID in the selected image with the
Kernel ID drop-down list box.
-
You can override the RAM disk ID in the selected image with the
RAM disk ID (RAMFS) drop-down list box.
-
Click the Enable monitoring check box to specify that
detailed CloudWatch metric gathering should be enabled for your new
instance(s).
-
For instances, click the Use private addressing only check box to
assign only private IP addresses from the range of IP addresses in your subnet to your new instance(s).
-
The Storage section will only display if you have an EBS-backed image. If
this is the case, you can configure additional storage for your
instance:
-
Select a volume type using the Volume
drop-down list box.
-
Type the desired mapping for the storage into the
Mapping text box (for example:
/dev/sdb).
-
If you want to create the storage from an existing snapshot,
specify it in the Snapshot drop-down list
box.
-
Type the size of the attached storage in gigabytes into the
Size (GB) text box.
-
The DELETE ON TERMINATE indicator shows that the attached storage
is to be automatically deleted by default when the instance is terminated. This option
is non-editable.
Note: The DELETE ON TERMINATE indicator is not applicable
for launch configurations.
-
Click the Add device button to add this storage.
-
You can delete storage you've already added by clicking the minus
button (⊝) on the right side of the storage list item.
