/#Action=RebootInstances
http://ec2.{region}.amazonaws.com/#Action=RebootInstances<p>Requests a reboot of the specified instances. This operation is asynchronous; it only queues a request to reboot the specified instances. The operation succeeds if the instances are valid and belong to you. Requests to reboot terminated instances are ignored.</p> <p>If an instance does not cleanly shut down within a few minutes, Amazon EC2 performs a hard reboot.</p> <p>For more information about troubleshooting, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/instance-console.html">Troubleshoot an unreachable instance</a> in the <i>Amazon EC2 User Guide</i>.</p>
