Hi all, Thanks for reading my question. I have successfully created gp2 root volume by changing "volume_type: gp2" to "device_type: gp2" . (Not sure why it works. manual says that device_type is deprecated)
The below yaml works - name: Launch the new EC2 Instance ec2: group: '{{ security_group }}' instance_type: '{{ instance_type}}' image: '{{ image }}' wait: true region: '{{ region }}' vpc_subnet_id: '{{ vpc_subnet_id }}' keypair: '{{ keypair }}' count: '{{count}}' volumes: - device_name: /dev/sda1 device_type: gp2 volume_size: 8 register: ec2 Regards, Abey On Wed, Oct 28, 2015 at 4:04 PM, Stephen Granger <viper...@gmail.com> wrote: > Would this depend on the AMI being used having a root ssd volume? > > I'm unsure of this and would be happily corrected. > > On 27 October 2015 at 09:10, Abey Thomas <abe...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hi , >> >> I am trying to create EC2 instances using ansible module ec2 and the root >> volume gets created as "standard".
