aws ec2 create-replace-root-volume-task
Creates a root volume replacement task for an Amazon EC2 instance. The root volume can either be restored to its initial launch state, or it can be restored using a specific snapshot. For more information, see Replace a root volume in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide
Options
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--instance-id <string> | The ID of the instance for which to replace the root volume |
--snapshot-id <string> | The ID of the snapshot from which to restore the replacement root volume. If you want to restore the volume to the initial launch state, omit this parameter |
--client-token <string> | Unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. If you do not specify a client token, a randomly generated token is used for the request to ensure idempotency. For more information, see Ensuring Idempotency |
--dry-run | Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation |
--no-dry-run | Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation |
--tag-specifications <list> | The tags to apply to the root volume replacement task |
--cli-input-json <string> | Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by ``--generate-cli-skeleton``. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally |
--generate-cli-skeleton <string> | Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value ``input``, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for ``--cli-input-json``. If provided with the value ``output``, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command |
