How can the user convert it?

A user has launched an EC2 Windows instance from an instance store backed AMI. The user wants to convert the AMI to an EBS backed AMI.

How can the user convert it?
A . Attach an EBS volume to the instance and unbundle all the AMI bundled data inside the EBS
B . A Windows based instance store backed AMI cannot be converted to an EBS backed AMI
C . It is not possible to convert an instance store backed AMI to an EBS backed AMI
D . Attach an EBS volume and use the copy command to copy all the ephermal content to the EBS Volume

Answer: B

Explanation:

Generally, when a user has launched an EC2 instance from an instance store backed AMI, it can be converted to an EBS backed AMI provided the user has attached the EBS volume to the instance and unbundles the AMI data to it.

However, if the instance is a Windows instance, AWS does not allow this. In this case, since the instance is a Windows instance, the user cannot convert it to an EBS backed AMI.
