Rules

What happens when i turn on weekend rules for EC2 or RDS?

When you turn on these rules the EC2 & RDS instances will be turned on starting your weekend start time and starts automatically when it reaches the weekend end time.
Yes, you have to make sure your EC2 and RDS instances has the weekend tags.
Add a tag "weekend = snooze" with key as weekend and snooze as value to your EC2 or RDS instance. Once this tag is set you have to go to cloudinsider "Manage tags", select your weekend tag under AWS tags and the corresponding "CI Tag" as "ci-weekendstop" and save it.
When tags are created people make different version following the instructions. Some variations they can make are with capital letters, plurals, and more. Few examples (Weekend, Weekends, weekends,week-end,WeekEnd). You can group all these variations and put them in a "ci-weekendstop" tag.
You follow the same steps as the weekend tags explained in previous questions.
