TaskManagedEBSVolumeConfiguration

The configuration for the Amazon EBS volume that Amazon ECS creates and manages on your behalf. These settings are used to create each Amazon EBS volume, with one volume created for each task.

Contents

roleArn

The ARN of the IAM role to associate with this volume. This is the Amazon ECS infrastructure IAM role that is used to manage your AWS infrastructure. We recommend using the Amazon ECS-managed AmazonECSInfrastructureRolePolicyForVolumes IAM policy with this role. For more information, see Amazon ECS infrastructure IAM role in the Amazon ECS Developer Guide.

Type: String

Required: Yes

encrypted

Indicates whether the volume should be encrypted. If you turn on Region-level Amazon EBS encryption by default but set this value as false, the setting is overridden and the volume is encrypted with the KMS key specified for Amazon EBS encryption by default. This parameter maps 1:1 with the Encrypted parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

filesystemType

The Linux filesystem type for the volume. For volumes created from a snapshot, you must specify the same filesystem type that the volume was using when the snapshot was created. If there is a filesystem type mismatch, the task will fail to start.

The available filesystem types are
 ext3, ext4, and xfs. If no value is specified, the xfs filesystem type is used by default.

Type: String

Valid Values: ext3 | ext4 | xfs | ntfs

Required: No

iops

The number of I/O operations per second (IOPS). For gp3, io1, and io2 volumes, this represents the number of IOPS that are provisioned for the volume. For gp2 volumes, this represents the baseline performance of the volume and the rate at which the volume accumulates I/O credits for bursting.

The following are the supported values for each volume type.

  • gp3: 3,000 - 16,000 IOPS

  • io1: 100 - 64,000 IOPS

  • io2: 100 - 256,000 IOPS

This parameter is required for io1 and io2 volume types. The default for gp3 volumes is 3,000 IOPS. This parameter is not supported for st1, sc1, or standard volume types.

This parameter maps 1:1 with the Iops parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference.

Type: Integer

Required: No

kmsKeyId

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) identifier of the AWS Key Management Service key to use for Amazon EBS encryption. When a key is specified using this parameter, it overrides Amazon EBS default encryption or any KMS key that you specified for cluster-level managed storage encryption. This parameter maps 1:1 with the KmsKeyId parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference. For more information about encrypting Amazon EBS volumes attached to a task, see Encrypt data stored in Amazon EBS volumes attached to Amazon ECS tasks.

Important

AWS authenticates the AWS Key Management Service key asynchronously. Therefore, if you specify an ID, alias, or ARN that is invalid, the action can appear to complete, but eventually fails.

Type: String

Required: No

sizeInGiB

The size of the volume in GiB. You must specify either a volume size or a snapshot ID. If you specify a snapshot ID, the snapshot size is used for the volume size by default. You can optionally specify a volume size greater than or equal to the snapshot size. This parameter maps 1:1 with the Size parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference.

The following are the supported volume size values for each volume type.

  • gp2 and gp3: 1-16,384

  • io1 and io2: 4-16,384

  • st1 and sc1: 125-16,384

  • standard: 1-1,024

Type: Integer

Required: No

snapshotId

The snapshot that Amazon ECS uses to create the volume. You must specify either a snapshot ID or a volume size. This parameter maps 1:1 with the SnapshotId parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference.

Type: String

Required: No

tagSpecifications

The tags to apply to the volume. Amazon ECS applies service-managed tags by default. This parameter maps 1:1 with the TagSpecifications.N parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference.

Type: Array of EBSTagSpecification objects

Required: No

terminationPolicy

The termination policy for the volume when the task exits. This provides a way to control whether Amazon ECS terminates the Amazon EBS volume when the task stops.

Type: TaskManagedEBSVolumeTerminationPolicy object

Required: No

throughput

The throughput to provision for a volume, in MiB/s, with a maximum of 1,000 MiB/s. This parameter maps 1:1 with the Throughput parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference.

Important

This parameter is only supported for the gp3 volume type.

Type: Integer

Required: No

volumeInitializationRate

The rate, in MiB/s, at which data is fetched from a snapshot of an existing Amazon EBS volume to create a new volume for attachment to the task. This property can be specified only if you specify a snapshotId. For more information, see Initialize Amazon EBS volumes in the Amazon EBS User Guide.

Type: Integer

Required: No

volumeType

The volume type. This parameter maps 1:1 with the VolumeType parameter of the CreateVolume API in the Amazon EC2 API Reference. For more information, see Amazon EBS volume types in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

The following are the supported volume types.

  • General Purpose SSD: gp2|gp3

  • Provisioned IOPS SSD: io1|io2

  • Throughput Optimized HDD: st1

  • Cold HDD: sc1

  • Magnetic: standard

    Note

    The magnetic volume type is not supported on Fargate.

Type: String

Required: No
