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).

WindowsFileSystemConfiguration

The configuration for this Microsoft Windows file system.

Contents

ActiveDirectoryId

The ID for an existing Amazon Managed Microsoft Active Directory instance that the file system is joined to.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Fixed length of 12.

Pattern: ^d-[0-9a-f]{10}$

Required: No

Aliases

An array of one or more DNS aliases that are currently associated with the Amazon FSx file system. Aliases allow you to use existing DNS names to access the data in your Amazon FSx file system. You can associate up to 50 aliases with a file system at any time. You can associate additional DNS aliases after you create the file system using the AssociateFileSystemAliases operation. You can remove DNS aliases from the file system after it is created using the DisassociateFileSystemAliases operation. You only need to specify the alias name in the request payload. For more information, see DNS aliases.

Type: Array of Alias objects

Array Members: Maximum number of 50 items.

Required: No

AuditLogConfiguration

The configuration that Amazon FSx for Windows File Server uses to audit and log user accesses of files, folders, and file shares on the Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file system.

Type: WindowsAuditLogConfiguration object

Required: No

AutomaticBackupRetentionDays

The number of days to retain automatic backups. Setting this to 0 disables automatic backups. You can retain automatic backups for a maximum of 90 days.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 0. Maximum value of 90.

Required: No

CopyTagsToBackups

A boolean flag indicating whether tags on the file system should be copied to backups. This value defaults to false. If it's set to true, all tags on the file system are copied to all automatic backups and any user-initiated backups where the user doesn't specify any tags. If this value is true, and you specify one or more tags, only the specified tags are copied to backups. If you specify one or more tags when creating a user-initiated backup, no tags are copied from the file system, regardless of this value.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

DailyAutomaticBackupStartTime

The preferred time to take daily automatic backups, in the UTC time zone.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Fixed length of 5.

Pattern: ^([01]\d|2[0-3]):?([0-5]\d)$

Required: No

DeploymentType

Specifies the file system deployment type, valid values are the following:

  • MULTI_AZ_1 - Specifies a high availability file system that is configured for Multi-AZ redundancy to tolerate temporary Availability Zone (AZ) unavailability, and supports SSD and HDD storage.

  • SINGLE_AZ_1 - (Default) Specifies a file system that is configured for single AZ redundancy, only supports SSD storage.

  • SINGLE_AZ_2 - Latest generation Single AZ file system. Specifies a file system that is configured for single AZ redundancy and supports SSD and HDD storage.

For more information, see Single-AZ and Multi-AZ File Systems.

Type: String

Valid Values: MULTI_AZ_1 | SINGLE_AZ_1 | SINGLE_AZ_2

Required: No

DiskIopsConfiguration

The SSD IOPS (input/output operations per second) configuration for an Amazon FSx for Windows file system. By default, Amazon FSx automatically provisions 3 IOPS per GiB of storage capacity. You can provision additional IOPS per GiB of storage, up to the maximum limit associated with your chosen throughput capacity.

Type: DiskIopsConfiguration object

Required: No

MaintenanceOperationsInProgress

The list of maintenance operations in progress for this file system.

Type: Array of strings

Array Members: Maximum number of 20 items.

Valid Values: PATCHING | BACKING_UP

Required: No

PreferredFileServerIp

For MULTI_AZ_1 deployment types, the IP address of the primary, or preferred, file server.

Use this IP address when mounting the file system on Linux SMB clients or Windows SMB clients that are not joined to a Microsoft Active Directory. Applicable for all Windows file system deployment types. This IP address is temporarily unavailable when the file system is undergoing maintenance. For Linux and Windows SMB clients that are joined to an Active Directory, use the file system's DNSName instead. For more information on mapping and mounting file shares, see Accessing File Shares.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 7. Maximum length of 15.

Pattern: ^(([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])\.){3}([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])$

Required: No

PreferredSubnetId

For MULTI_AZ_1 deployment types, it specifies the ID of the subnet where the preferred file server is located. Must be one of the two subnet IDs specified in SubnetIds property. Amazon FSx serves traffic from this subnet except in the event of a failover to the secondary file server.

For SINGLE_AZ_1 and SINGLE_AZ_2 deployment types, this value is the same as that for SubnetIDs. For more information, see Availability and durability: Single-AZ and Multi-AZ file systems.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 15. Maximum length of 24.

Pattern: ^(subnet-[0-9a-f]{8,})$

Required: No

RemoteAdministrationEndpoint

For MULTI_AZ_1 deployment types, use this endpoint when performing administrative tasks on the file system using Amazon FSx Remote PowerShell.

For SINGLE_AZ_1 and SINGLE_AZ_2 deployment types, this is the DNS name of the file system.

This endpoint is temporarily unavailable when the file system is undergoing maintenance.

Type: String
