Attach Volume
This activity attaches a volumean Amazon EBS volume to a running or stopped instance and exposes it to the instance with the specified device name.
Activity Parameters
The Attach Volume activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
...
- Connection (text box editor type): the AmazonEC2 connection, obtained after using a ConnectToAmazonEC2 activity. The output from Connect To AmazonEC2 activity should be used as input for this parameter.
- Device (text box editor type): enter the device where you want to attach the volumename as exposed to the instance, for example " /dev/sdg"sdh or xvdh.
- Instance Id (text box editor type): enter an existing instance Id to which you want to attach the volume, for example "i-d2b4650f". The instance has to be in the same availability zone as the volumethe ID of the instance to which the volume attaches. The volume and instance must be within the same Availability Zone and the instance must be running.
- Volume Id (text box editor type): enter the existing volume Id that you want to attachthe ID of the Amazon EBS volume. The volume and instance must be within the same Availability Zone and the instance must be running.
The Read Only Output variable is the possible output value that the activity will provide:
...
- Amazon AWS Access Key (text box editor type): enter the Amazon AWS Access Key of your AmazonEC2 account.
- Amazon AWS Secret Key (text box editor type): enter the Amazon AWS Secret Key of your AmazonEC2 account.
- Region (text box editor type): choose the account region.

Create OS Image
This activity creates an operating system imagean AMI that uses an Amazon EBS root device from a "running" or "stopped" instance. AMIs that use an Amazon EBS root device boot faster than AMIs that use instance stores. They can be up to 1 TB in size, use storage that persists on instance failure, and can be stopped and started.
Activity Parameters
The Create OS Image activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
...
- Connection (text box editor type): the AmazonEC2 connection, obtained after using a ConnectToAmazonEC2 activity. The output from Connect To AmazonEC2 activity should be used as input for this parameter.
- Description (text box editor type): enter the description for the new operating system image.
- Instance Id (text box editor type): enter the existing instance Id for the new operating system image.
- Name (text box editor type): enter the name for the new operating system image.
- No Reboot (text box editor type): by default, Amazon EC2 attempts to shut down and reboot the instance before creating the image. If the No Reboot option is set, Amazon EC2 does not shut down the instance before creating the image. When this option is used, file system integrity on the created image can not be guaranteed.
The Read Only Output variable is the possible output value that the activity will provide:
- Output Image Id: outputs the ID of the newly created operating system image.
Create Snapshot
...
- the ID of the newly created operating system image.
Create Snapshot
This activity creates a snapshot of an Amazon EBS volume and stores it in Amazon S3. You can use snapshots for backups, to make copies of Amazon EBS volumes, and to save data before shutting down an instance.
Activity Parameters
The Create Snapshot activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
...
- Connection (text box editor type): the AmazonEC2 connection, obtained after using a ConnectToAmazonEC2 activity. The output from Connect To AmazonEC2 activity should be used as input for this parameter.
- Description (text box editor type): enter the description for the new snapshot.
- Volume Id (text box editor type): enter an existing volume Id for the snapshotthe ID of the Amazon EBS volume of which to take a snapshot.
The Read Only Output variable is the possible output value that the activity will provide:
...
This activity creates a subnet in an existing VPC.
Activity Parameters
The Create Subnet activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

- Connection (text box editor type): the AmazonEC2 connection, obtained after using a ConnectToAmazonEC2 activity. The output from Connect To AmazonEC2 activity should be used as input for this parameter.
- VPC Id (text box editor type): enter the Id ID of your the Virtual Private Gateway (VPC) where you want to create the subnet.
The Read Only Output variable is the possible output value that the activity will provide:
Output Subnet Id: outputs the Id of the newly created subnet.
Create Volume
This activity creates a new volumesubnet.
Create Volume
This activity creates an Amazon EBS volume that can be attached to an instance in the same Availability Zone. The volume is created in the specified region.
Activity Parameters
The Create Volume activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:
...
- Availability Zone (text box editor type): enter the availability zone in which to create the volume. Use the activity Get Availability Zones to list the Availability Zones that are currently available for your account
- Connection (text box editor type): the AmazonEC2 connection, obtained after using a ConnectToAmazonEC2 activity. The output from Connect To AmazonEC2 activity should be used as input for this parameter.
- Size (text box editor type): enter the size of the volume, in GBs. Constraints: 1-16384 for gp2, 4-16384 for io1, 500-16384 for st1, 500-16384 for sc1, and 1-104 for standard. If you specify a snapshot, the volume size must be equal to or larger than the snapshot size. If you are creating the volume from a snapshot and do not specify a volume size, the default is the snapshot size.
