{
  "SpotInstanceRequests": [
    {
      "SpotInstanceRequestId": "sir-12345",
      "State": "active",
      "Status": {"Code": "fulfilled", "Message": "Your Spot request is fulfilled."},
      "InstanceId": "i-67890"
    }
  ]
}
What does this output indicate?
AThe Spot Instance request is active and the instance is running.
BThe Spot Instance request was denied due to price limits.
CThe Spot Instance request is pending and waiting for capacity.
DThe Spot Instance request was cancelled by the user.
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Analyze the 'State' and 'Status' fields

    The state is "active" and status code is "fulfilled", meaning the request succeeded and instance launched.
  2. Step 2: Interpret the meaning of 'InstanceId'

    The presence of an InstanceId means the Spot Instance is running.
  3. Final Answer:

    The Spot Instance request is active and the instance is running. -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    State active + fulfilled = running instance [OK]
Quick Trick: Active state and fulfilled status mean instance is running [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Confusing 'active' with 'pending'
  • Ignoring the 'fulfilled' status message
  • Assuming InstanceId is missing means failure
