   A company runs a stateful application on a single EC2 instance. The instance's current type (t3.medium) is no longer sufficient to handle the increased load. The operations team needs to change the instance type to a larger one (m5.large) without losing the data on the instance's EBS volumes. What is the correct procedure?

   • AModify the Auto Scaling group's launch template to use m5.large and let the group replace the instance.
   • BUse AWS Systems Manager Run Command to change the instance type while the instance is running.
   • CStop the instance, change the instance type in the EC2 console, and start the instance again.
   • DCreate an AMI from the instance, launch a new m5.large instance from the AMI, and then delete the old instance.

   An organization uses AWS Config to monitor its EC2 instances. A new AWS Config rule is created that requires all EC2 instances to have a specific tag (Environment=Production). The rule immediately reports several instances as noncompliant. The operations team wants to automatically add the missing tag to all noncompliant instances. What is the most efficient solution?

   • AUse AWS Config remediation to run an SSM automation document that adds the required tag to the noncompliant instances.
   • BManually add the tag to each noncompliant instance in the EC2 console.
   • CUse AWS Systems Manager Run Command to run a script that adds the tag to all instances in the account.
   • DUse AWS Systems Manager State Manager to associate a state policy that enforces the tag on all instances.
