------------------------------
Summary: Proposal to add a node state - STOPPED - to the standard
list of states.
Key: LIBCLOUD-296
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-296
Project: Libcloud
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Compute
Affects Versions: 0.11.2
Reporter: Jayyy
Priority: Minor
With providers like EC2, a node can be stopped and started again.
STOPPED - is a reasonably useful state to determine the nodes that are just
stopped but not terminated and initiate a start operation, if required.
Currently a EC2 stopped node is being mapped to UNKNOWN state. Without a
STOPPED state, we are losing an important information with all the providers
who supports this state.
