Awesome, that's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the link, I updated the wiki page so that it is using that instead of the AWS guide.

It's the only section of the Cloud Guide that has actually been fully fleshed out, but it does exist!

The system is stable in all of these tasks. Thanks for the feedback, I added expected results for SSH and installation using yum.

I see what you mean but I'm a little hesitant to add those kind of details to the test case. It might be better to have a separate wiki page for "getting started with EC2" instructions.

I'm honestly not sure how to do that, will look into whether or not it's possible, though.

The only change I might suggest is adding "The instance is capable of installing from the default yum repository" to expected results. We are shipping very bare bones instances here. There are really 4 key requirements: 1. The system will boot 2. You can ssh into the host as ec2-user with sudo access 3. You can install packages from the yum repository 4. The system is stable in all of these tasks. Justin -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

Looks good to me.. thought as a first time user of AWS, the process of creating an account and the verification was a bit slow. Also, when finally creating an account I've had no idea what to actually select. I saw something about free Amazon Micro EC2 but no idea how to use it. Finally figured out that I am suppose to use the "Classic" workflow. Perhaps adding in a comment saying: "As setting up a first-time AWS account can take sometimes a few hours, it is recommended that the user create this in advance." Also perhaps a link to do when nothing shows up. For example I just created an ami-5f16d836 and all lights are green but I can't connect to it. Perhaps some link to "how to get debug/bootup logs" from the instance? Or how to add 'debug loglevel=8' to the kernel bootup?

EC2 AMI Test Case Review Request
Now that EC2 functionality is a release requirement, I've written up a draft test case for EC2 AMIs. I tried to keep it straight forward without writing a "how to use EC2" guide. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Tflink/QA:Testcase_EC2_AMI_Validation_%28draft%29 I'd appreciate any suggestions or comments before moving it from a draft page and adding it to the release validation matrices.
