Instance Status check failed after change from t2.2xlarge to t3.2xlarge

0

I am trying to switch from a t2.2xlarge instance to a e3.xlarge.
System Status check is green, Instance status check is red "instance reachability check failed"

OS is Server 2021R2

I used this command to enable ENA
aws ec2 modify-instance-attribute --instance-id i-0db6e8abe7fa61536 --ena-support

Verified ENA and it shows TRUE, with this command
aws ec2 describe-instances --instance-ids i-0db6e8abe7fa61536 --query "Reservations[].Instances[].EnaSupport"

I updated the PV drivers on the Windows instance with https://s3.amazonaws.com/ec2-windows-drivers-downloads/AWSPV/Latest/AWSPVDriver.zip

Anyone know what else I can try?

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out with your issue.

Before you migrate to our new generation instance types(T3's) there are number of prerequisites that must be met on the instance.

You would need to ensure that the NVMe and ENA drivers are installed before changing the ENA flag and the instance type.

This process only works for EBS backed instances and before following the steps in this procedure, I recommend that you create a backup of the instance in the form of an AMI.

To install the drivers, please see the AWS documentation[1].

You must also ensure that part 1 to part 4 are completed :
Part 1: Installing and upgrading AWS PV drivers
Part 2: Installing and upgrading ENA
Part 3: Upgrading AWS NVMe drivers
Part 4: Updating EC2Config and EC2Launch

Note
When migrating to the latest generation instances, the static IP or custom DNS network settings on the existing ENI may be lost as the instance will default to a new Enhanced Networking Adapter device.

I hope the provided information helps.
Please review the provided documentation for more information.

Have a great day!
