We use longhornand EBS-aws on our kubernetes clusters. but I would to active cluster-autoscaler for our instances ec2.

If an ec2 instance is down auto scaling create a new instance with an empty ebs and longhorn recreate a volume with replicas.

Is it possible to reuse an old ebs instance instead to create a new ebs?

For example with portwork it's possible.

I would like separate compute to storage.
