Description Luigi Toscano 2011-03-11 16:03:20 UTC
Various URLs in chapter 16 either redirect to new ones, or are outdated.

== General remarks
"Developers User Guide" seems to be no more available, and all the contents have
been included in the "User Guide". All the references and URLs should be fixed 
accordingly (see below). 
Right now a redirect is in place, but I don't know how much time it will be available 
(http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/DeveloperGuide/ redirects to 
http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/)

== Section 16.1
* point 4, note
"For help with getting familiar with EC2, read through the _AWS Getting Started Guide_"
The URL is outdated, so [http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/2007-08-29/GettingStartedGuide/] should point to
[http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/GettingStartedGuide/]

* point 10
"Once this is completed, follow the instructions in the _Amazon Web Services Developer Guide_to rebundle and save the customized API. " (fix URL, wording - "Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide" or simply "Amazon EC2 User Guide")

== Section 16.2
* Submitting jobs to MRG/EC2 Basic, point 2
"Information on how to access image instance data, including user data, is 
available from _Amazon Web Services Developer Guide_. " (see previous point)

* Advanced options
"For more information on instance types see the _Amazon EC2 Developer Guide_."
(see previous point)


* point 4

"Download the AMI command line utilities here from the _Amazon Web Services Developer Site_."
Link working, but it redirects to [http://aws.amazon.com/developertools/368]. I'd also remove "Developer" from the link ("Amazon Web Services Site")


"Documentation on the APIs and command line utilities are also on the 
_Amazon Web Services Developer Site_. ". 
See previous point; it redirects to [http://aws.amazon.com/archives/1665], remove "Developer"

"For more information see the documentation at the _Amazon Web Services Developer Guide_."
The URL is not correct anymore, the correct one is:
[http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/index.html?using-%2520network-security.html]
Also, it's part of "User Guide" (see previous points about Developer Guide).

* point 6, note
"One of these is the Mozilla™ Firefox™ plugin _Elasticfox_. ". The URL redirects to: [http://aws.amazon.com/developertools/609]

Comment 4 Lubos Trilety 2011-05-26 14:25:27 UTC
one link with redirect forgotten:

The required tools are available as the Amazon EC2 API Tools available from _Amazon Web Services_.
