all of our instances scheduled for maint. are indeed system-reboot event types; it is indeed a stop/start situation.

stop/start can possibly put you on another physical - but it all depends on how aws has setup the hypervisors and their instance schedulers.

this, the maint from aws, appears to be security related - but that doesn't mean that aws is not getting folks off of old hardware if they have that desire.

Yeah, I actually had to check that I wasn't on a spoof website. The site looks cheap and ugly. Not like a typical Google site. Just compare to the recent ebooks and art project sites. Glad I'm not the only one thinking the site needs solid polishing.
