Amazon EC2: Allows starting or stopping EC2 instances a user has tagged, programmatically and in the console
This example shows how you might create an IAM policy that allows an IAM user to start
or stop EC2 instances, but only if the
instance tag Owner
has the value of that user's user
name. This policy also grants the necessary permissions to complete this action on
the console.
