Dear Amazon EC2 Customer,
In November, we announced that EC2 and EBS will
have longer identifiers for instances, volumes, reservations, and snapshots to support the ongoing growth of Amazon Web Services.
Starting today, you can opt into using longer EC2 instance and reservation IDs using APIs or the AWS Management Console.
Note: Longer EBS volume and snapshot IDs will be available in April 2016.
From now until early December 2016, you can test your systems with the longer format and opt in when you are ready.
From December, all new instances, reservations, volumes, and snapshots will be created with longer IDs.
We strongly recommend testing your systems and opting in to the longer ID format across all of your accounts before December 2016.
All AWS accounts created after March 7, 2016, will automatically default to longer instance and reservation IDs, with the option to request the original, shorter 8-character format if necessary.
After you opt in, only new instances and reservations will receive longer IDs; any
pre-existing resources are not affected.
All versions of the AWS CLI, AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell, AWS IDE toolkits, and AWS SDKs are already compatible with longer IDs.
For instructions regarding how to opt in to longer IDs, visit the AWS Blog.
More information about timelines, testing procedures, and more can be found on the EC2 FAQ page.
If you have questions, contact the AWS support team.
Sincerely,
The Amazon Web Services Team
