EC2 instance rebooting after stop

  • 772

I have an EC2 instance that I'm trying to stop by going to Running instances -> Actions -> Instance State -> Stop but after a few minutes it starts automatically. Is there a reason for this behaviour?

    Recapitulating my prior comment, AWS will not restart a stopped instance on its own. AWS Cloudtrail is the place to look for who/what made the API call to restart the instance.
