Scenario 2: Write a script that lists all EC2 instances, identifies any in a 'stopped' state, and starts them automatically.

import boto3

ec2 = boto3.resource("ec2", region_name="us-east-1")

# Find stopped instances
stopped_instances = ec2.instances.filter(
    Filters=[{"Name": "instance-state-name", "Values": ["stopped"]}]
)

instance_ids = [instance.id for instance in stopped_instances]

if instance_ids:
    print(f"Found stopped instances: {instance_ids}. Starting them now...")
    # Start the instances
    ec2.instances.filter(InstanceIds=instance_ids).start()
else:
    print("No stopped instances found.")
