using deprecated ami id's

[Zeebrow]

Hello,

On March 31, 2022, EC2 announced that all public AMIs will have the deprecation time set to two years after their creation date [1]. Once an AMI is deprecated, it will no longer appear in DescribeImages [2] API calls for users that are not the owner of the AMI. Deprecating an AMI only reduces the visibility of the AMI in untargeted searches, but continues to be usable and available to you. Users of a deprecated AMI can continue to launch instances and describe the deprecated AMI using its ID.

We have identified that your public AMIs which will be deprecated over two weeks starting July 30, 2022, have been used for instance launches recently. While these AMIs remain available using the AMI IDs, they will not be visible on the public AMI catalog by default. This message is to notify you of the upcoming change, and does not require any action from you.

A list of old public AMIs you have used for instance launches and the corresponding Region can be found at the end of this notification.

To learn more about viewing and managing the deprecation time for your AMIs, please refer to the "Deprecate an AMI" documentation [3].

If you have any further questions or comments regarding this matter, please contact AWS Support [4].

Public AMIs | Region

ami-0b898040803850657 | US-EAST-1

Confirmed this ami is being run by main.py describe.

DescribeAmis is called only when new instances are made. I don't think any action is required on my part, but it is worth checking on, and hopefully refine it a wee bit.
