+ | The process is quite simple, and it goes like this: | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | **Create an AMI (Amazon Machine Image).**\\ | ||
+ | **Create new EC2 Instance from the AMI.**\\ | ||
+ | **Create new Key Pair.**\\ | ||
+ | **Delete AMI.**\\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | So use the [[move_ec2_instance|Move EC2 Instance]] guide and just ignore the part about changing Availability Zones. | ||
