 Block Devices

Each of the *_block_device attributes controls a portion of the AWS Instance’s “Block Device Mapping”. It’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with AWS’s Block Device Mapping docs to understand the implications of using these attributes.

1. Each ebs_block_device supports the following:

device_name – (Required). The name of the device to mount.

snapshot_id – (Optional) The Snapshot ID to mount.

volume_type – (Optional) The type of volume. Can be "standard", "gp2", or "io1".

delete_on_termination – (Optional) Whether the volume should be destroyed on instance termination.

encrypted – (Optional) Enables EBS encryption on the volume.

kms_key_id – (Optional) ID for a user managed CMK under which the EBS Volume is encrypted.

//optional
data "aws_ami" "amazon_linux" {
  most_recent = true
  name_regex = "amzn-ami-hvm-.*-gp2"
  owners = ["amazon"]
}
//optional

ebs_block_device { device_name = “${data.aws_ami.amazon_linux.root_device_name}” volume_type = ‘gp2’ volume_size = 80 delete_on_termination = true }
ebs_block_device { device_name = “/dev/xvdb” snapshot_id = ‘snap-12345678’ volume_type = ‘io1’ volume_size = 80 iops = 100 delete_on_termination = true encrypted = true }

Modifying any ebs_block_device currently resource replacement.

Using the default AMi is optional, any AMI can be used.

2. Each ephemeral_block_device supports the following:

device_name – The name of the block device to mount on the instance.

virtual_name – The Instance Store Device Name(e.g. "ephemeral0").

ephemeral_block_device {

}

Currently, changes to *_block_device configuration of existing resources cannot be automatically detected by Terraform. After making updates to block device configuration, resource recreation can be manually triggered by using the taint command.

Docker Swarm
  • integration_docker_swarm – (Optional) Describes the Docker Swarm integration.

  • master_port – (Required) Network port used by your swarm.
  • autoscale_is_enabled – (Optional, Default: `false`) Specifies whether the auto scaling feature is enabled.
  • autoscale_cooldown – (Optional, Default: `300`) The amount of time, in seconds, after a scaling activity completes before any further trigger-related scaling activities can start. Minimum 180, must be a multiple of 60.
  • autoscale_headroom – (Optional) An option to set compute reserve for the cluster.
  • cpu_per_unit – (Optional, Default: `0`) How much CPU to allocate for headroom unit.
  • memory_per_unit – (Optional, Default: `0`) The amount of memory in each headroom unit. Measured in MiB.
  • num_of_units – (Optional, Default: `0`) How many units to allocate for headroom unit.
  • autoscale_down – (Optional) Setting for scale down actions.
  • evaluation_periods – (Optional, Default: `5`) Number of periods over which data is compared. Minimum 3, Measured in consecutive minutes.
Usage:
hcl
integration_docker_swarm = {
    master_host          = "10.10.10.10"
    master_port          = 2376
    autoscale_is_enabled = true
    autoscale_cooldown   = 180
    
    autoscale_headroom = {
        cpu_per_unit    = 2048
        memory_per_unit = 2048
        num_of_units    = 1
    }
    
    autoscale_down = {
        evaluation_periods = 3
    } 
}
 
Update Policy (Optional)
should_resume_stateful – (Optional) Boolean, this will apply resuming action for Stateful instances in the Elastigroup upon scale up or capacity changes. Example usage will be for Elastigroups that will have schedualing rules to set a target capacity of 0 instances in the night and automatically restore the same state of the isntnaces in the morning.
should_roll – (Required; Boolean) – sets the enablement of the roll option
roll_config – (Optional) While used, you can control whether the group should perform a deployment after an update to the configuration
  • batch_size_percentage  – (Required; integer) – Sets the percentage of the instances to deploy in each batch
  • grace_period  – (Optional; integer) – Sets the grace period for new instances to become healthy
  • health_check_type  – (Optional; String) – Sets the health check type to use.
      Supported Arguments: EC2 | K8S_NODE | ECS_CLUSTER_INSTANCE | ELB | HCS | MLB | MLB_RUNTIME | TARGET_GROUP | MULTAI_TARGET_SET | NOMAD_NODE
