Coder terminating and re-creating on start?
Hi folks, I've got what I think is a pretty vanilla template set up (AWS EC2 instance) and am seeing some strange behavior:
- When I stop a workspace, the instance stops, starts, and then stops again.
- When I start the workspace back up, the instance (and its attached volume) is terminated and a new one comes up in its place.
Attached is my template file. What am I doing wrong?

I guess the stop-start-stop behavior makes sense given that EC2 has to reboot the instance to set the new user-data (to the shutdown command)… still not sure on the replacement behavior though.
I've tried a few things to no avail. GitHub issue logged: https://github.com/coder/coder/issues/5615
