Terminating Instances

Instances can be ended with the euca-terminate-instances. It accepts one or more instance ids as arguments.

$ euca-describe-instances
RESERVATION    r-9puzwes7  book  default
INSTANCE    i-00000004  ami-6683ba18  10.0.0.2 10.0.0.2 running

Caution

Simply shutting down or powering off an instance does not terminate it in Nova. You need to actually use the euca-terminate-instances command to release their resources. This is different behavior than you may be used to from Amazon EC2.
