how to test stop start of AWS Spot Instances
Question
I am creating AWS spot instances on demand and wanted to keep interruption behavior as STOP, so that AWS can restart my VM as soon as price/demand meets.
But the problem is AWS GUI doesn't have any option to STOP running spot instances. It just have option to terminate instances or cancel spot requests.
I am developing some application which will resume itself on reboot. I wanted to test the application by simulating AWS stop and restart behaviour.
Thx in advance

As of now you cannot Stop a Spot Instance.
To simulate your application behavior, bid for minimum and wait for AWS to interrupt the instance.
Make sure that your spot instance is Stop Interruption ready.

You do not have an option to restart a SPOT instance. SPOT instance is not the right candidate for this kind of application.
