{
  "[Configured](#cfn-ec2-instance-hibernationoptions-configured)" : Boolean
}
```

## Properties
<a name="aws-properties-ec2-instance-hibernationoptions-properties"></a>

`Configured`  <a name="cfn-ec2-instance-hibernationoptions-configured"></a>
Set to `true` to enable your instance for hibernation.  
For Spot Instances, if you set `Configured` to `true`, either omit the `InstanceInterruptionBehavior` parameter (for [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_SpotMarketOptions.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_SpotMarketOptions.html)), or set it to `hibernate`. When `Configured` is true:  
+ If you omit `InstanceInterruptionBehavior`, it defaults to `hibernate`.
+ If you set `InstanceInterruptionBehavior` to a value other than `hibernate`, you'll get an error.
Default: `false`
