AWS accelerates instance reboots in anticipation of research findings
7 by tomchuk | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I had some instances that I hadn’t manually restarted, scheduled for reboot on Friday and Saturday. Just received this email: We previously advised you of important security and operational updates which will require a reboot of one or more of your Amazon EC2 instances in the US-EAST-1 region. Unfortunately, we must accelerate the planned reboot times for these instances given anticipated publication of new research findings. The new maintenance window has been scheduled between January 4, 2018 at 8:00 AM UTC (12:00AM PST) and January 4, 2018 at 2:00 PM UTC (6:00AM PST) during which the EC2 service will automatically perform the required reboot. During the maintenance window, the affected instance will be unavailable for a short period of time as it reboots. We will be performing this maintenance in a single Availability Zone of each Region at a time. For more information on EC2 maintenance, please see our documentation here: http://ift.tt/2fWWmXL . To avoid your scheduled reboot, you are able to reboot this instance any time prior to the maintenance window. More details on rebooting your instances yourself can be found here:

Amazon Web Services
