Hi, Yes, it is entirely doable, please follow the guide of the [Amazon EC2 driver](http://docs.opennebula.org/4.12/advanced_administration/cloud_bursting/ec2g.html) to configure and enable this functionality. -Tino ---

Could you share the output of “onehost list”? The template seems to be fine. The ami needs to be accessible by you (either of your property or public) ---

There seems to be a problem with the memory capacity of the ec2 host, check your ec2\_driver.conf configuration. That is why the VMs are in pending (you can force the deployment however, to check that the driver is working properly) Regarding the keypairs, you need to use the ones from your ec2 dashboard. -Tino ---
