How do identify if a vm is spot instance or a on-demand instance.
I have create a Auto Scaling Group with a mix of On-demand and Spot instance below is the rule configured
It did create 4 instances but I am not able to identify which is a spot instance and which are on-demand?
You can do the following:
In the navigation pane, choose Instances. In the top right corner, choose the Show/Hide icon, and then select Lifecycle. For each instance, Lifecycle is either normal, spot, or scheduled.
Alternatively run this CLI command
aws ec2 describe-spot-instance-requests \ --query "SpotInstanceRequests[*].{ID:InstanceId}"
