Description

Original: EC2 plugin didn't noticed that Jenkins is in _Shutdown mode_ and continued started instances (because jobs were in queue) and stopping instances (because jobs weren't started again) and starting, and stopping them again, and on, and on...   This caused $500 bill in Amazon over ~18 hours, because the instances were Windows, you pay for full hour and the timeout of inactive instances was set to 1 minute.   Implementation suggestion: If Jenkins is in shutdown mode, don't start new instances.
