Which AMI ID are you looking for, in which regions? We had a problem where we accidentally had many _unreleased_ snapshots consuming space and costing us significant money, and recently cleaned those up. However, all of the _released_ images back to F18 should still be there. In US East for F21, we have ami-d2d999ba for F21 PV and ami-acd999c4 and ami-78bafa10 for HVM. (I'm not sure offhand what the distinction between those other two is -- I'm looking this up in the middle of a meeting...) Of course, we *do* strongly recommend using the supported releases, but we understand that it's important to have time to transition and that sometimes old images are useful for testing, too. -- Matthew Miller <[email protected]> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/[email protected]
