The Import feature allows you to add already running BitNami EBS-backed instances to the BitNami Cloud Hosting console so you can fully control it, schedule backups etc. If you want to import your EC2 instance to the BCH console, first you need to connect to that machine via SSH (more info) and execute the following commands:
wget http://bitnami.org/files/download/bitnami-cloud-import.run
chmod a+x ./bitnami-cloud-import.run
sudo ./bitnami-cloud-import.run
