EC2 instance stuck in Pending

Question

My EC2 instance (ID: i-040166ba182c261a3) is stuck in the pending state, and previously was stuck in the starting and stopping states.

Answer

Hello, 
Thank you for reaching out. Currently, I can confirm that the Instance is running healthy and passing status check.

If the issue still persists, try Force-Stopping the Instance via the console or AWS CLI command below. See [Troubleshoot stopping your instance - Force stop the instance](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/TroubleshootingInstancesStopping.html#force-stop-instance)

```aws ec2 stop-instances --instance-ids i-040166ba182c261a3 --force```

> Note that you can use AWS CloudShell to run AWS CLI commands via the Console. See [Working with AWS CloudShell](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudshell/latest/userguide/working-with-cloudshell.html)

Additional information on the use case can be seen from the AWS article [Why is my EC2 instance stuck in the stopping state](https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-instance-stuck-stopping-state/)
