BlockDevice

class aws_cdk.aws_ec2.BlockDevice(*, device_name, volume, mapping_enabled=None)

Bases: object

Block device.

Parameters:
  • device_name (str) – The device name exposed to the EC2 instance. For example, a value like /dev/sdh, xvdh.

  • volume (BlockDeviceVolume) – Defines the block device volume, to be either an Amazon EBS volume or an ephemeral instance store volume. For example, a value like BlockDeviceVolume.ebs(15), BlockDeviceVolume.ephemeral(0).

  • mapping_enabled (Optional[bool]) – If false, the device mapping will be suppressed. If set to false for the root device, the instance might fail the Amazon EC2 health check. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling launches a replacement instance if the instance fails the health check. Default: true - device mapping is left untouched

    device_name="deviceName",
    volume=block_device_volume,

    # the properties below are optional
