API Reference

AWS services or capabilities described in AWS Documentation may vary by region/location. Click Getting Started with Amazon AWS to see specific differences applicable to the China (Beijing) Region.

Describes the specified EBS volumes or all of your EBS volumes.

If you are describing a long list of volumes, we recommend that you paginate the output to make the list more manageable. For more information, see Pagination.

For more information about EBS volumes, see Amazon EBS volumes in the Amazon EBS User Guide.

We strongly recommend using only paginated requests. Unpaginated requests are susceptible to throttling and timeouts.

The order of the elements in the response, including those within nested structures, might vary. Applications should not assume the elements appear in a particular order.

This is an asynchronous operation using the standard naming convention for .NET 4.5 or higher. For .NET 3.5 the operation is implemented as a pair of methods using the standard naming convention of BeginDescribeVolumes and EndDescribeVolumes.
