You have an EBS root device on /dev/sda1 on one of your EC2 instances. You are having trouble with this particular instance and you want to either Stop/Start, Reboot or Terminate the instance but you do not want to lose any data that you have stored on /dev/sda1. Which of the below statements best describes the effect each change of instance state would have on the data you have stored on /dev/sda1? Choose the correct option from the below:
A. Whether you stop/start, reboot or terminate the instance it does not matter because data on an EBS volume is not ephemeral and the data will not be lost regardless of what method is used
B. Whether you stop/start, reboot or terminate the instance it does not matter because data on an EBS volume is ephemeral and it will be lost no matter what method is used.
C. If you stop/start the instance the data will not be lost. However, if you either terminate or reboot the instance the data will be lost.
D. The data in an instance store is not permanent - it persists only during the lifetime of the instance. The data will be lost if you terminate the instance. However, the data will remain on /dev/sda1 if you reboot or stop/start the instance because data on an EBS volume is not ephemeral.
