Using AWS OpsHub to Manage Devices

Managing Your Devices

• Important We highly recommend that you suspend all activities on the device before you reboot the device. Rebooting a device stops running instances, interrupts any writing to Amazon S3 buckets on the device, and stops any write operations from the file interface without clearing the cache.

• Important We highly recommend that you suspend all activities on the device before you shut down the device. Shutting down a device stops running instances, interrupts any writing to Amazon S3 buckets on the device, and stops any write operations from the file interface without clearing the cache.

Automating Your Management Tasks

• Note Automating tasks is not supported on clusters. To use tasks, the Amazon EC2 Systems Manager service must be started first. To start a service on your Snowball Edge, see Starting a Service on Your Snowball Edge.
