Before starting this process. Please VERIFY that all the needed AMIs and Database Snapshots are present BEFORE terminating any instances. If the AMIs/Snapshots are missing for any reason, then there will be no way to recover the demo instance without recreating it from scratch.

The Snapshot and AMI names are in yellow boxes in their respective sections.

Terminate Instances

Disable EC2 Termination Protection

Right click on the instance and select "Change Termination Protection" from the menu.

Confirm the action.

Terminate OLEFS and Docstore Demo EC2 Instances

Right click on the instance and select "Terminate" from the menu.

Terminate the ole-demo-oracle RDS Instance

Right click on the instance and select "Delete" from the menu.

Decline creation of the final snapshot. (We already have one.)

Restore Instances

Restore Demo Database From Snapshot

ole-demo-oracle-refresh

Right click on the instance and select "Modify".

  • Select the ole-rds-servers security group (only)

  • Check "Apply Immediately"
