aws_ec2_snapshot_active

Determine the action to take when an AWS EC2 snapshot, based on the `AWS &gt; EC2 &gt; Snapshot &gt; Active &gt; *` policies.&#92;n&#92;nThe control determines whether the resource is in active use, and if not,&#92;nhas the ability to delete / cleanup the resource. When running an automated&#92;ncompliance environment, it&#39;s common to end up with a wide range of alarms&#92;nthat are difficult and time consuming to clear. The Active control brings&#92;nautomated, well-defined control to this process.&#92;n&#92;nThe Active control checks the status of all defined Active policies for the&#92;nresource (`AWS &gt; EC2 &gt; Snapshot &gt; Active &gt; *`), raises an alarm, and takes the defined enforcement&#92;naction. Each Active sub-policy can calculate a status of active, inactive&#92;nor skipped. Generally, if the resource appears to be Active for any reason&#92;nit will be considered Active.&#92;n**Note** the contrast with Approved, where if the resource appears to be Unapproved for any reason it will be considered&#92;nUnapproved.&#92;n&#92;nSee [Active](https://turbot.com/guardrails/docs/concepts/guardrails/active) for more information.&#92;n
