CreateOpenZFSVolumeConfiguration - Amazon FSx
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

CreateOpenZFSVolumeConfiguration

Specifies the configuration of the Amazon FSx for OpenZFS volume that you are creating.

Contents

ParentVolumeId

The ID of the volume to use as the parent volume of the volume that you are creating.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Fixed length of 23.

Pattern: ^(fsvol-[0-9a-f]{17,})$

Required: Yes

CopyTagsToSnapshots

A Boolean value indicating whether tags for the volume should be copied to snapshots. This value defaults to false. If it's set to true, all tags for the volume are copied to snapshots where the user doesn't specify tags. If this value is true, and you specify one or more tags, only the specified tags are copied to snapshots. If you specify one or more tags when creating the snapshot, no tags are copied from the volume, regardless of this value.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

DataCompressionType

Specifies the method used to compress the data on the volume. The compression type is NONE by default.

  • NONE - Doesn't compress the data on the volume. NONE is the default.

  • ZSTD - Compresses the data in the volume using the Zstandard (ZSTD) compression algorithm. ZSTD compression provides a higher level of data compression and higher read throughput performance than LZ4 compression.

  • LZ4 - Compresses the data in the volume using the LZ4 compression algorithm. LZ4 compression provides a lower level of compression and higher write throughput performance than ZSTD compression.

For more information about volume compression types and the performance of your Amazon FSx for OpenZFS file system, see Tips for maximizing performance File system and volume settings in the Amazon FSx for OpenZFS User Guide.

Type: String

Valid Values: NONE | ZSTD | LZ4

Required: No

NfsExports

The configuration object for mounting a Network File System (NFS) file system.

Type: Array of OpenZFSNfsExport objects

Array Members: Maximum number of 1 item.

Required: No

OriginSnapshot

The configuration object that specifies the snapshot to use as the origin of the data for the volume.

Type: CreateOpenZFSOriginSnapshotConfiguration object

Required: No

ReadOnly

A Boolean value indicating whether the volume is read-only.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

RecordSizeKiB

Specifies the suggested block size for a volume in a ZFS dataset, in kibibytes (KiB). Valid values are 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, or 1024 KiB. The default is 128 KiB. We recommend using the default setting for the majority of use cases. Generally, workloads that write in fixed small or large record sizes may benefit from setting a custom record size, like database workloads (small record size) or media streaming workloads (large record size). For additional guidance on when to set a custom record size, see ZFS Record size in the Amazon FSx for OpenZFS User Guide.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 4. Maximum value of 1024.

Required: No

StorageCapacityQuotaGiB

Sets the maximum storage size in gibibytes (GiB) for the volume. You can specify a quota that is larger than the storage on the parent volume. A volume quota limits the amount of storage that the volume can consume to the configured amount, but does not guarantee the space will be available on the parent volume. To guarantee quota space, you must also set StorageCapacityReservationGiB. To not specify a storage capacity quota, set this to -1.

For more information, see Volume properties in the Amazon FSx for OpenZFS User Guide.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of -1. Maximum value of 2147483647.

Required: No

StorageCapacityReservationGiB

Specifies the amount of storage in gibibytes (GiB) to reserve from the parent volume. Setting StorageCapacityReservationGiB guarantees that the specified amount of storage space on the parent volume will always be available for the volume. You can't reserve more storage than the parent volume has. To not specify a storage capacity reservation, set this to 0 or -1. For more information, see Volume properties in the Amazon FSx for OpenZFS User Guide.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of -1. Maximum value of 2147483647.

Required: No

UserAndGroupQuotas

Configures how much storage users and groups can use on the volume.

Type: Array of OpenZFSUserOrGroupQuota objects

Array Members: Maximum number of 500 items.

Required: No
