> Using deltacloud 0.0.7, when an EC2 instance is stopped, it is no longer listed as TERMINATED as it was
> in deltacloud 0.0.5. Instead, it is listed as STOPPED and the REST interface reports that a START action is
> possible. This is not true. An EC2 instance, once stopped, is terminated and cannot be restarted. The Deltacloud
> tools get the available actions from the REST interface and so if a user attempts to start the instance, the tools will
> allow this and set up a task to wait for the state to change from STOPPED, but this will never happen and the task remains in the
> task list indefinitely due to the fact that the task cannot be cancelled.
> The Deltacloud tools currently does not support cancelling state-change-wait tasks because they are necessary to keep
> the cached data up-to-date (e.g. we need to know when an instance in PENDING becomes RUNNING and if the user
> has stopped an instance, we need to know when it is officially STOPPED or TERMINATED as this affects available actions,
> for example. The task continuously waits and refreshes the instance, waiting for a state change. If a user requests another action,
> the current wait-task will be cancelled and the new one will take it's place (e.g. one can STOP a PENDING instance that hasn't
> achieved RUNNING state yet).
> A bug has been opened against Deltacloud server: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=64285 regarding the invalid
> action/state settings for the stopped EC2 instance.
