This explains some weird EC2 stuff we saw yesterday. A good reminder to check up that a box starts up as expected (mounts disks, starts services, etc). It's easy to get lazy about that sort of thing when you're moving fast.

Same here, the VM rebooted and restarted all services correctly but the connectivity was failing intermittently. Not fun.

Concluded we better just start a new VM... and it worked.

Next time there is such scheduled event, I guess being proactive and creating a new VM beforehand is the better solution.
