Launch an instance that matches the same specification as the reserved instance you purchased.

    But it's not defined yet - you need to do that as described above - please read our help pages, this site may not be for you. – Chopper3 Nov 28 '16 at 16:47

    You have affectively reserved the resources for an instance, you still need to actively start an instance for those resources to be allocated to. The purchased instance will be automatically associated with the new instance you create. – cduffin Nov 28 '16 at 16:48
  • okay so i launched ec2 instance with the same specs. how can i be sure that they are linked and that i won't be charged for the ec2 instance ? – Wassim Seifeddine Nov 28 '16 at 17:26
