I had a use case where I was switching to using spot instances for my application instead of on demand instances. According to my requirement i should be able to stop that instance and restart it just the way we do it for on demand ec2-instances. In the aws console, i only found the option to reboot or terminate my instance and hovering over the stop option said "Spot instance cannot be stopped". Is there a workaround to allow stopping the instance or is it not possible as of now?
