Describes the status of the specified volumes¶
Description¶
Describes the status of the specified volumes. Volume status provides the result of the checks performed on your volumes to determine events that can impair the performance of your volumes. The performance of a volume can be affected if an issue occurs on the volume's underlying host. If the volume's underlying host experiences a power outage or system issue, after the system is restored, there could be data inconsistencies on the volume. Volume events notify you if this occurs. Volume actions notify you if any action needs to be taken in response to the event.
The describe_volume_status
operation provides the following
information about the specified volumes:
Status: Reflects the current status of the volume. The possible values
are ok
, impaired
, warning
, or insufficient-data
. If all checks
pass, the overall status of the volume is ok
. If the check fails, the
overall status is impaired
. If the status is insufficient-data
, then
the checks might still be taking place on your volume at the time. We
recommend that you retry the request. For more information about volume
status, see Monitor the status of your
volumes
in the Amazon EBS User Guide.
Events: Reflect the cause of a volume status and might require you to
take action. For example, if your volume returns an impaired
status,
then the volume event might be potential-data-inconsistency
. This
means that your volume has been affected by an issue with the underlying
host, has all I/O operations disabled, and might have inconsistent data.
Actions: Reflect the actions you might have to take in response to an
event. For example, if the status of the volume is impaired
and the
volume event shows potential-data-inconsistency
, then the action shows
enable-volume-io
. This means that you may want to enable the I/O
operations for the volume by calling the enable_volume_io
action and
then check the volume for data consistency.
Volume status is based on the volume status checks, and does not reflect
the volume state. Therefore, volume status does not indicate volumes in
the error
state (for example, when a volume is incapable of accepting
I/O.)
The order of the elements in the response, including those within nested structures, might vary. Applications should not assume the elements appear in a particular order.
Usage¶
Arguments¶
Filters
The filters.
action.code
- The action code for the event (for example,enable-volume-io
).action.description
- A description of the action.action.event-id
- The event ID associated with the action.availability-zone
- The Availability Zone of the instance.event.description
- A description of the event.event.event-id
- The event ID.event.event-type
- The event type (forio-enabled
:passed
|failed
; forio-performance
:io-performance:degraded
|io-performance:severely-degraded
|io-performance:stalled
).event.not-after
- The latest end time for the event.event.not-before
- The earliest start time for the event.volume-status.details-name
- The cause forvolume-status.status
(io-enabled
|io-performance
).volume-status.details-status
- The status ofvolume-status.details-name
(forio-enabled
:passed
|failed
; forio-performance
:normal
|degraded
|severely-degraded
|stalled
).volume-status.status
- The status of the volume (ok
|impaired
|warning
|insufficient-data
).
MaxResults
The maximum number of items to return for this request. To get the next page of items, make another request with the token returned in the output. For more information, see Pagination.
NextToken
The token returned from a previous paginated request. Pagination continues from the end of the items returned by the previous request.
VolumeIds
The IDs of the volumes.
Default: Describes all your volumes.
DryRun
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 isUnauthorizedOperation
.
