AWS EC2 Instance Status Check
With instance status monitoring, you can quickly determine whether Amazon EC2 has detected any problems that might prevent your instances from running applications.
Amazon EC2 performs automated checks on every running EC2 instance to identify hardware and software issues.
Status checks are performed every minute and returning a pass or a fail status.
If all checks pass, the overall status of the instance is OK.
If one or more checks fail, the overall status is impaired.
Status checks are built into Amazon EC2, that cannot be disabled or deleted.
