**To create an empty General Purpose SSD (gp2) volume**
The following ``create-volume`` example creates an 80 GiB General Purpose SSD (gp2) volume in the specified Availability Zone. Note that the current Region must be ``us-east-1``, or you can add the ``--region`` parameter to specify the Region for the command. ::
aws ec2 create-volume \
--volume-type gp2 \
--size 80 \
--availability-zone us-east-1a
Output::
{
"AvailabilityZone": "us-east-1a",
"Tags": [],
"Encrypted": false,
"VolumeType": "gp2",
"VolumeId": "vol-1234567890abcdef0",
"State": "creating",
"Iops": 240,
"SnapshotId": "",
"CreateTime": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.000Z",
"Size": 80
}
If you do not specify a volume type, the default volume type is ``gp2``. ::
aws ec2 create-volume \
--size 80 \
--availability-zone us-east-1a
**Example 2: To create a Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1) volume from a snapshot**
The following ``create-volume`` example creates a Provisioned IOPS SSD (io1) volume with 1000 provisioned IOPS in the specified Availability Zone using the specified snapshot. ::
aws ec2 create-volume \
--volume-type io1 \
--iops 1000 \
--snapshot-id snap-066877671789bd71b \
--availability-zone us-east-1a
Output::
{
"AvailabilityZone": "us-east-1a",
"Tags": [],
"Encrypted": false,
"VolumeType": "io1",
"VolumeId": "vol-1234567890abcdef0",
"State": "creating",
"Iops": 1000,
"SnapshotId": "snap-066877671789bd71b",
"CreateTime": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.000Z",
"Size": 500
}
**Example 3: To create an encrypted volume**
The following ``create-volume`` example creates an encrypted volume using the default CMK for EBS encryption. If encryption by default is disabled, you must specify the ``--encrypted`` parameter as follows. ::
aws ec2 create-volume \
--size 80 \
--encrypted \
--availability-zone us-east-1a
Output::
{
"AvailabilityZone": "us-east-1a",
"Tags": [],
"Encrypted": true,
"VolumeType": "gp2",
"VolumeId": "vol-1234567890abcdef0",
"State": "creating",
"Iops": 240,
"SnapshotId": "",
"CreateTime": "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.000Z",
"Size": 80
}
If encryption by default is enabled, the following example command creates an encrypted volume, even without the ``--encrypted`` parameter. ::
aws ec2 create-volume \
--size 80 \
--availability-zone us-east-1a
If you use the ``--kms-key-id`` parameter to specify a customer managed CMK, you must specify the ``--encrypted`` parameter even if encryption by default is enabled. ::
aws ec2 create-volume \
--volume-type gp2 \
--size 80 \
--encrypted \
--kms-key-id 0ea3fef3-80a7-4778-9d8c-1c0c6EXAMPLE \
--availability-zone us-east-1a
**Example 4: To create a volume with tags**
The following ``create-volume`` example creates a volume and adds two tags. ::
aws ec2 create-volume \
--availability-zone us-east-1a \
--volume-type gp2 \
--size 80 \
--tag-specifications 'ResourceType=volume,Tags=[{Key=purpose,Value=production},{Key=cost-center,Value=cc123}]'
