Subject: Constant creation of Test-env EC2 instance Dear AWS Support Team, I am writing to inquire about the constant creation of an EC2 instance named "Test-env" on my AWS account. I have noticed that this instance is being created automatically on a regular basis, without any action on my part. I would like to understand the reason for this behavior and how I can disable it, as it is causing unnecessary expenses for my account. I have checked my AWS account settings, but I could not find any option to disable this automatic creation. Could you please provide me with more information on why this instance is being created and how I can disable this feature? I would appreciate any guidance or support that you can offer. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best regards, Yevhenlg...

I have 2 ec 2 instances running and am able to login to both from pc desktop but not from Android mobile It is my understanding that we can have 2 connections through rdp, is these connections to the server or the instances, so my question is my having 2 instances is that my connections used up and I need to pay for rdp licence then? Or should I be able to connect through my mobile as well? If it is possible to connect through mobile, can someone detail the process for doing so? If I need to buy licences, where do I find details to do that and also associated costs, I would need a connection to each instance through mobile, so is that 2 rdp licenses required? any pointers appreciated Many Thanks Gordonlg...

Hi, We have SQL 2017 ENT running on EC2 instances (i3.4xlarge) in Ireland. We are using Litespeed to do full and log backups to S3 in the same region. This is a very large Database. Through litespeed we are doing maximum compression and stripping the full backup to 7 files and each file size is ~430 GB. In the SQL server side, full backups are scheduled to always run in AG secondary replica, so it is only doing the backup work load nothing else. A full back usually completes in ~ 16 to 18 hours. But sometimes the full backup takes 30 to 40 hours and sometimes in worst cases it is taking 60 to 75 hrs to complete. For the slow running backups, at the moment we dont have a clue on where things are actually slowing down. One thing I notice from the litespeed backup summary - whenever backup throughput reduces, the backup time increases proportionally. How would I go about troubleshooting this to find out the root cause and what actions should I take so that full backup always completes in less than 20 hours? Thanks in advance.lg...
