By reviewing the AWS Personal Health Dashboard, the SysOps administrator can quickly and easily identify any instances that will be affected by upcoming hardware maintenance. This information can then be used to take action to mitigate the impact of the maintenance, such as by moving instances to a different Availability Zone.

Selected Answer: D

A - possible, but not using AWS services and has admin overhead, so - incorrect B and C - may show only already failed instances, so - incorrect D is correct, it shows current and also potential failures on your instances that run on degraded hardware https://docs.aws.amazon.com/health/latest/ug/getting-started-health-dashboard.html

If a hardware malfunction occurs, then Amazon EC2 tags the specific hardware as faulty. Any instances that are running on the hypervisor of the faulty hardware are moved to healthy hardware. During the transition to new hardware, the Amazon EBS-backed instances are stopped and instance store-backed instances are terminated. Amazon EC2 sends a notification through email and to your Personal Health Dashboard informing you of the hardware degradation and of the upcoming instance stop or termination. https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-linux-degraded-hardware/
