AWS launchwizard documentation change
Summary
Added detailed configuration steps for multiple instance SAP ASE deployments, including instance sizing, auto recovery, storage sizing, and pre/post-deployment script handling
Security assessment
The changes primarily document deployment configuration options without addressing vulnerabilities or introducing security controls. While script execution timeouts and rollback mechanisms have operational reliability implications, there's no explicit mention of security vulnerabilities, access controls, or encryption features. The auto-recovery feature mentioned relates to availability rather than security.
