When launching a new EC2 instance, I am not given a choice of an AZ - I need it to be in a specific AZ. How can I do that?

Hi,

When you set up an EC2 instance you can choose the subnet to deploy in. This subnet defines the AZ.

In the console, it will default to some subnet but you can choose another. See "Networking" config section for that.

Best,

Didier
