Jayyy commented on LIBCLOUD-296:
--------------------------------
Noticed that with EC2, the original value of node state gets retained under
node.extra['status']. Still it will be more convenient to map the stopped state.
> Proposal to add a node state - STOPPED - to the standard list of states.

> Key: LIBCLOUD-296
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-296
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Compute
> Affects Versions: 0.11.2
> Reporter: Jayyy
> Priority: Minor
>
> With providers like EC2, a node can be stopped and started again.
> STOPPED - is a reasonably useful state to determine the nodes that are just
> stopped but not terminated and initiate a start operation, if required.
> Currently a EC2 stopped node is being mapped to UNKNOWN state. Without a
> STOPPED state, we are losing an important information with all the providers
> who supports this state.
> A sample ec2 node data in stopped state
> ------------------------------------------------------------
