To control your desktop's state:
-
Choose Actions.
-
Choose Virtual Desktop State. You have four states to select from:
-
Stop
A stopped session will not suffer data loss, and you can restart a stopped session at any time.
-
Reboot
Reboots current session.
-
Terminate
Permanently ends a session. Terminating a session may cause data loss if you are using ephemeral storage. You should backup your data to the RES filesystem before terminating.
-
Hibernate
Your desktop state will be saved in memory. When you restart the desktop, your applications will resume but any remote connections may be lost. Not all instances support hibernation, and the option is only available if it was enabled during instance creation. To verify if your instance supports this state, see Hibernation prerequisites.
