Fixes #8455, #5390 This add a new `no_device` attribute to `ephemeral_block_device` block, which allows users omit ephemeral devices from AMI's predefined block device mappings, which is useful for EBS-only instance types.

# aws\_instance
|
|
|
|
Provides an EC2 instance resource. This allows instances to be created, updated,
|
|
and deleted. Instances also support [provisioning](/docs/provisioners/index.html).
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# Create a new instance of the latest Ubuntu 14.04 on an
|
|
# t2.micro node with an AWS Tag naming it "HelloWorld"
|
|
provider "aws" {
|
|
region = "us-west-2"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
data "aws_ami" "ubuntu" {
|
|
most_recent = true
|
|
filter {
|
|
name = "name"
|
|
values = ["ubuntu/images/hvm-ssd/ubuntu-trusty-14.04-amd64-server-*"]
|
|
}
|
|
filter {
|
|
name = "virtualization-type"
|
|
values = ["hvm"]
|
|
}
|
|
owners = ["099720109477"] # Canonical
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
resource "aws_instance" "web" {
|
|
ami = "${data.aws_ami.ubuntu.id}"
|
|
instance_type = "t2.micro"
|
|
tags {
|
|
Name = "HelloWorld"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Argument Reference
|

|
|
* `ami` - (Required) The AMI to use for the instance.
|
|
* `availability_zone` - (Optional) The AZ to start the instance in.
|
|
* `placement_group` - (Optional) The Placement Group to start the instance in.
|
|
* `tenancy` - (Optional) The tenancy of the instance (if the instance is running in a VPC). An instance with a tenancy of dedicated runs on single-tenant hardware. The host tenancy is not supported for the import-instance command.
|
|
* `ebs_optimized` - (Optional) If true, the launched EC2 instance will be
|

|
|
* `instance_initiated_shutdown_behavior` - (Optional) Shutdown behavior for the
|
|
instance. Amazon defaults this to `stop` for EBS-backed instances and
|
|
`terminate` for instance-store instances. Cannot be set on instance-store
|
|
instances. See [Shutdown Behavior](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/terminating-instances.html#Using_ChangingInstanceInitiatedShutdownBehavior) for more information.
|
|
* `instance_type` - (Required) The type of instance to start
|
|
* `key_name` - (Optional) The key name to use for the instance.
|
|
* `monitoring` - (Optional) If true, the launched EC2 instance will have detailed monitoring enabled. (Available since v0.6.0)
|
|
* `security_groups` - (Optional) A list of security group names to associate with.
|
|
If you are creating Instances in a VPC, use `vpc_security_group_ids` instead.
|
|
* `vpc_security_group_ids` - (Optional) A list of security group IDs to associate with.
|
|
* `subnet_id` - (Optional) The VPC Subnet ID to launch in.
|
|
* `associate_public_ip_address` - (Optional) Associate a public ip address with an instance in a VPC. Boolean value.
|
|
* `private_ip` - (Optional) Private IP address to associate with the
|
|
instance in a VPC.
|
|
* `source_dest_check` - (Optional) Controls if traffic is routed to the instance when
|
|
the destination address does not match the instance. Used for NAT or VPNs. Defaults true.
|
|
* `user_data` - (Optional) The user data to provide when launching the instance.
|
|
* `iam_instance_profile` - (Optional) The IAM Instance Profile to
|
|
launch the instance with.
|
|
* `tags` - (Optional) A mapping of tags to assign to the resource.
|
|
* `root_block_device` - (Optional) Customize details about the root block
|
|
device of the instance. See [Block Devices](#block-devices) below for details.
|
|
* `ebs_block_device` - (Optional) Additional EBS block devices to attach to the
|
|
instance. See [Block Devices](#block-devices) below for details.
|
|
* `ephemeral_block_device` - (Optional) Customize Ephemeral (also known as
|
|
"Instance Store") volumes on the instance. See [Block Devices](#block-devices) below for details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Block devices
|
|
|
|
Each of the `*_block_device` attributes controls a portion of the AWS
|
|
Instance's "Block Device Mapping". It's a good idea to familiarize yourself with [AWS's Block Device
|
|
Mapping docs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/block-device-mapping-concepts.html)
|
|
to understand the implications of using these attributes.
|
|
|
|
The `root_block_device` mapping supports the following:
|
|
|
|
* `volume_type` - (Optional) The type of volume. Can be `"standard"`, `"gp2"`,
|
|
or `"io1"`. (Default: `"standard"`).
|
|
* `volume_size` - (Optional) The size of the volume in gigabytes.
|
|
* `iops` - (Optional) The amount of provisioned
|
|
[IOPS](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ebs-io-characteristics.html).
|
|
This must be set with a `volume_type` of `"io1"`.
|
|
* `delete_on_termination` - (Optional) Whether the volume should be destroyed
|
|
on instance termination (Default: `true`).
|
|
|
|
Modifying any of the `root_block_device` settings requires resource
|
|
replacement.
|
|
|
|
Each `ebs_block_device` supports the following:
|
|
|
|
* `device_name` - The name of the device to mount.
|
|
* `snapshot_id` - (Optional) The Snapshot ID to mount.
|
|
* `volume_type` - (Optional) The type of volume. Can be `"standard"`, `"gp2"`,
|
|
or `"io1"`. (Default: `"standard"`).
|
|
* `volume_size` - (Optional) The size of the volume in gigabytes.
|
|
* `iops` - (Optional) The amount of provisioned
|
|
[IOPS](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ebs-io-characteristics.html).
|
|
This must be set with a `volume_type` of `"io1"`.
|
|
* `delete_on_termination` - (Optional) Whether the volume should be destroyed
|
|
on instance termination (Default: `true`).
|
|
* `encrypted` - (Optional) Enables [EBS
|
|
encryption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/EBSEncryption.html)
|
|
on the volume (Default: `false`). Cannot be used with `snapshot_id`.
|
|
|
|
Modifying any `ebs_block_device` currently requires resource replacement.
|
|
|
|
~> **NOTE on EBS block devices:** If you use `ebs_block_device` on an `aws_instance`, Terraform will assume management over the full set of non-root EBS block devices for the instance, and treats additional block devices as drift. For this reason, `ebs_block_device` cannot be mixed with external `aws_ebs_volume` + `aws_volume_attachment` resources for a given instance.
|
|
|
|
Each `ephemeral_block_device` supports the following:
|
|
|
|
* `device_name` - The name of the block device to mount on the instance.
|
|
* `virtual_name` - (Optional) The [Instance Store Device
|
|
Name](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/InstanceStorage.html#InstanceStoreDeviceNames)
|
|
(e.g. `"ephemeral0"`).
|
|
* `no_device` - (Optional) Suppresses the specified device included in the AMI's block device mapping.
|
|
|
|
Each AWS Instance type has a different set of Instance Store block devices
|
|
available for attachment. AWS [publishes a
|
|
list](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/InstanceStorage.html#StorageOnInstanceTypes)
|
|
of which ephemeral devices are available on each type. The devices are always
|
|
identified by the `virtual_name` in the format `"ephemeral{0..N}"`.
|
|
|
|
~> **NOTE:** Currently, changes to `*_block_device` configuration of _existing_
|
|
resources cannot be automatically detected by Terraform. After making updates
|
|
to block device configuration, resource recreation can be manually triggered by
|
|
using the [`taint` command](/docs/commands/taint.html).
|
|
|
|
## Attributes Reference
