.NET Framework 4.5
 
 
Container for the parameters to the CopySnapshot operation. Copies a point-in-time snapshot of an EBS volume and stores it in Amazon S3. You can copy the snapshot within the same region or from one region to another. You can use the snapshot to create EBS volumes or Amazon Machine Images (AMIs). The snapshot is copied to the regional endpoint that you send the HTTP request to.

Copies of encrypted EBS snapshots remain encrypted. Copies of unencrypted snapshots remain unencrypted, unless the Encrypted flag is specified during the snapshot copy operation. By default, encrypted snapshot copies use the default AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) customer master key (CMK); however, you can specify a non-default CMK with the KmsKeyId parameter.

For more information, see Copying an Amazon EBS Snapshot in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.

Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property Description System.String Gets and sets the property Description.

A description for the EBS snapshot.

Public Property DestinationRegion System.String Gets and sets the property DestinationRegion.

The destination region to use in the PresignedUrl parameter of a snapshot copy operation. This parameter is only valid for specifying the destination region in a PresignedUrl parameter, where it is required.

CopySnapshot sends the snapshot copy to the regional endpoint that you send the HTTP request to, such as ec2.us-east-1.amazonaws.com (in the AWS CLI, this is specified with the --region parameter or the default region in your AWS configuration file).

Public Property Encrypted System.Boolean Gets and sets the property Encrypted.

Specifies whether the destination snapshot should be encrypted. There is no way to create an unencrypted snapshot copy from an encrypted snapshot; however, you can encrypt a copy of an unencrypted snapshot with this flag. The default CMK for EBS is used unless a non-default AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) CMK is specified with KmsKeyId. For more information, see Amazon EBS Encryption in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.

Public Property KmsKeyId System.String Gets and sets the property KmsKeyId.

The full ARN of the AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) CMK to use when creating the snapshot copy. This parameter is only required if you want to use a non-default CMK; if this parameter is not specified, the default CMK for EBS is used. The ARN contains the arn:aws:kms namespace, followed by the region of the CMK, the AWS account ID of the CMK owner, the key namespace, and then the CMK ID. For example, arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:012345678910:key/abcd1234-a123-456a-a12b-a123b4cd56ef. The specified CMK must exist in the region that the snapshot is being copied to. If a KmsKeyId is specified, the Encrypted flag must also be set.

Public Property SourceRegion System.String Gets and sets the property SourceRegion.

The ID of the region that contains the snapshot to be copied.

Public Property SourceSnapshotId System.String Gets and sets the property SourceSnapshotId.

The ID of the EBS snapshot to copy.
