When you use AWS CloudFormation to update an Amazon EBS volume that modifies Iops , Size , or VolumeType , there is a cooldown period before another operation can occur. This can cause your stack to report being in UPDATE_IN_PROGRESS or UPDATE_ROLLBACK_IN_PROGRESS for long periods of time.

Amazon EBS does not support sizing down an Amazon EBS volume. AWS CloudFormation does not attempt to modify an Amazon EBS volume to a smaller size on rollback.

Some common scenarios when you might encounter a cooldown period for Amazon EBS include:

You successfully update an Amazon EBS volume and the update succeeds. When you attempt another update within the cooldown window, that update will be subject to a cooldown period.
You successfully update an Amazon EBS volume and the update succeeds but another change in your update-stack call fails. The rollback will be subject to a cooldown period.

For more information, see Requirements for EBS volume modifications .

DeletionPolicy attribute

To control how AWS CloudFormation handles the volume when the stack is deleted, set a deletion policy for your volume. You can choose to retain the volume, to delete the volume, or to create a snapshot of the volume. For more information, see DeletionPolicy attribute .

If you set a deletion policy that creates a snapshot, all tags on the volume are included in the snapshot.

Using getVolume

Two invocation forms are available. The direct form accepts plain arguments and either blocks until the result value is available, or returns a Promise-wrapped result. The output form accepts Input-wrapped arguments and returns an Output-wrapped result.

function getVolume(args: GetVolumeArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Promise<GetVolumeResult>
function getVolumeOutput(args: GetVolumeOutputArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Output<GetVolumeResult>

def get_volume(volume_id: Optional[str] = None,
               opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> GetVolumeResult
def get_volume_output(volume_id: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None,
               opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> Output[GetVolumeResult]

func LookupVolume(ctx *Context, args *LookupVolumeArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) (*LookupVolumeResult, error)
func LookupVolumeOutput(ctx *Context, args *LookupVolumeOutputArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) LookupVolumeResultOutput

> Note: This function is named LookupVolume in the Go SDK.

{
    public static Task<GetVolumeResult> InvokeAsync(GetVolumeArgs args, InvokeOptions? opts = null)

    # arguments dictionary

The following arguments are supported:

VolumeId string: The ID of the volume.

volumeId string: The ID of the volume.

volume_id str: The ID of the volume.

volumeId String: The ID of the volume.

getVolume Result

The following output properties are available:

AutoEnableIo bool

Indicates whether the volume is auto-enabled for I/O operations. By default, Amazon EBS disables I/O to the volume from attached EC2 instances when it determines that a volume's data is potentially inconsistent. If the consistency of the volume is not a concern, and you prefer that the volume be made available immediately if it's impaired, you can configure the volume to automatically enable I/O.

AvailabilityZone string

The ID of the Availability Zone in which to create the volume. For example, us-east-1a. Either AvailabilityZone or AvailabilityZoneId must be specified, but not both.

AvailabilityZoneId string

Encrypted bool

Indicates whether the volume should be encrypted. The effect of setting the encryption state to true depends on the volume origin (new or from a snapshot), starting encryption state, ownership, and whether encryption by default is enabled. For more information, see Encryption by default in the Amazon EBS User Guide. Encrypted Amazon EBS volumes must be attached to instances that support Amazon EBS encryption. For more information, see Supported instance types.

Iops int

The number of I/O operations per second (IOPS) to provision for the volume. Required for io1 and io2 volumes. Optional for gp3 volumes. Omit for all other volume types. Valid ranges:

gp3: 3,000(default)- 80,000 IOPS
io1: 100 - 64,000 IOPS
io2: 100 - 256,000 IOPS

Instances built on the Nitro System can support up to 256,000 IOPS. Other instances can support up to 32,000 IOPS.

KmsKeyId string

The identifier of the kms-key-long to use for Amazon EBS encryption. If KmsKeyId is specified, the encrypted state must be true. If you omit this property and your account is enabled for encryption by default, or Encrypted is set to true, then the volume is encrypted using the default key specified for your account. If your account does not have a default key, then the volume is encrypted using the aws-managed-key. Alternatively, if you want to specify a different key, you can specify one of the following:

Key ID. For example, 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab.
Key alias. Specify the alias for the key, prefixed with alias/. For example, for a key with the alias my_cmk, use alias/my_cmk. Or to specify the aws-managed-key, use alias/aws/ebs.
Key ARN. For example, arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:012345678910:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab.
Alias ARN. For example, arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:012345678910:alias/ExampleAlias.

MultiAttachEnabled bool

Indicates whether Amazon EBS Multi-Attach is enabled. CFNlong does not currently support updating a single-attach volume to be multi-attach enabled, updating a multi-attach enabled volume to be single-attach, or updating the size or number of I/O operations per second (IOPS) of a multi-attach enabled volume.

OutpostArn string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Outpost.

Size int

The size of the volume, in GiBs. You must specify either a snapshot ID or a volume size. If you specify a snapshot, the default is the snapshot size, and you can specify a volume size that is equal to or larger than the snapshot size. Valid sizes:

gp2: 1 - 16,384 GiB
gp3: 1 - 65,536 GiB
io1: 4 - 16,384 GiB
io2: 4 - 65,536 GiB
st1 and sc1: 125 - 16,384 GiB
standard: 1 - 1024 GiB

SnapshotId string

The snapshot from which to create the volume. You must specify either a snapshot ID or a volume size.

SourceVolumeId string

Tags List<Pulumi.AwsNative.Outputs.Tag>

The tags to apply to the volume during creation.

Throughput int

The throughput to provision for a volume, with a maximum of 1,000 MiB/s. This parameter is valid only for gp3 volumes. The default value is 125. Valid Range: Minimum value of 125. Maximum value of 1000.

VolumeId string

The ID of the volume.

VolumeInitializationRate int

Specifies the Amazon EBS Provisioned Rate for Volume Initialization (volume initialization rate), in MiB/s, at which to download the snapshot blocks from Amazon S3 to the volume. This is also known as volume initialization. Specifying a volume initialization rate ensures that the volume is initialized at a predictable and consistent rate after creation. This parameter is supported only for volumes created from snapshots. Omit this parameter if:

You want to create the volume using fast snapshot restore. You must specify a snapshot that is enabled for fast snapshot restore. In this case, the volume is fully initialized at creation. If you specify a snapshot that is enabled for fast snapshot restore and a volume initialization rate, the volume will be initialized at the specified rate instead of fast snapshot restore.
You want to create a volume that is initialized at the default rate.

For more information, see Initialize Amazon EBS volumes in the Amazon EC2 User Guide. Valid range: 100 - 300 MiB/s
