Dear All,

I was able to run the instances but the problem I am facing is that the
instances are in shutdown state.
1.
#euca-run-instances ami-00000003 -k test -t m1.tiny
# euca-describe-instances
RESERVATION     r-6t4mze5l      admin   default
INSTANCE        i-00000002      ami-00000003    10.0.0.4
10.0.0.4        shutdown        test (admin, nova-dx2480-MT)
0               m1.tiny 2011-08-30T04:29:16Z    nova    aki-00000001
ari-00000002

how can I make the instance to be in running state. Please suggest.

Thanks,
Bhaskar
