NAME

       VM::EC2::Instance::StatusItem - Object describing a instance status event

SYNOPSIS

        @status_items = $ec2->describe_instance_status();
        for my $i (@status_items) {
           print $i->instance_id,
                  ': instance check=',$i->instance_status,
                  ', system check=',$i->system_status,"\n";
           if (my $e = $i->events) {
              print $i->instance_id,' event = ',$e;
           }
        }

DESCRIPTION

       This object represents an instance status returned by $ec2->describe_instance_status().

METHODS

       These object methods are supported:

        instanceId            -- The ID of the affected instance.
        instance              -- The VM::EC2::Instance object
        availabilityZone      -- The availability zone of this instance.
        events                -- A list of VM::EC2::Instance::Status::Event objects
                                  representing a scheduled maintenance events on this
                                  instance (see note).
        instanceState         -- The state of this instance (e.g. "running")
        systemStatus          -- A VM::EC2::Instance::Status object indicating the
                                   status of the system check.
        instanceStatus        -- A VM::EC2::Instance::Status object indicating the
                                   status of the instance availability check.

       NOTE: There is an inconsistency in the AWS documentation for this data type. The events
       field is documented as being a list, but the examples shown return a single object. At
       release time, I was unable to verify which is correct and have written the code such that
       it will always return a list, which may be single elementin length.

       In a string context, this object will interpolate as:

        "$instanceId: XX/2 tests passed"

       where XX is the number of checks that passed.

       In the case of an instance that is not running, the interpolation will be:

        "$instanceId: $state"

       Where $state is the state of the instance (e.g. "stopped").
