[01:49] <genewitch> once i've created an AMI from a running instance is there anything else i need to do to save the data? or did they make that automatic, now. Used to have to swap out the volumes before booting.
[01:50] <flaccid> you got it all if you did it correctly
[01:51] <genewitch> right click, create AMI
[01:51] <genewitch> from the aws console on amazon.
[01:51] <genewitch> that's so much nicer, you had to do all that snapshot and making a volume yourself before. it was a pain.
[01:52] <flaccid> or you just use RightScale
[02:02] <genewitch> no idea what that is. i am experimenting with X11 forwarding, i wanted to create an AMI to send to someone else.
[02:02] <flaccid> genewitch: http://rightscale.com/
[02:02] <flaccid> i.e. the concept of a ServerTemplate
[02:03] <flaccid> you can 'private' share an AMI but you can't 'send' it
[02:09] <genewitch> that is what i meant
