Backup Policy unable to take Sanpshot of Reserved Instances #10

Closed mkatkade closed 7 years ago

mkatkade commented 7 years ago

Hi @cmachler ,

I have created Backup and Retention policy for my EC2 instances. The policy is executing successfully, however it is unable to find any instance in any regions. I have 80 instances running in "US East (N. Virginia)" regions and all instances are reserved. PFA screenshot for reference and kindly suggest

ebs-backup-1 ebs-backup-2 ebs-backup-3

if any changes are required for reserved instances.

You may want to check you have correct role assigned in the function. For troubleshooting you may want to create a test script to just print out the instances, and start troubleshooting. From what info you have provided I would have to guess its permissions related. I am closing the issue since I believe its permissions issue on your side, and you will need to troubleshoot that.
