Creates a new, empty file system. The operation requires a creation token in the request that Amazon EFS uses to ensure idempotent creation (calling the operation with same creation token has no effect). If a file system does not currently exist that is owned by the caller\'s AWS account with the specified creation token, this operation does the following:
efs_create_file_system(CreationToken, PerformanceMode, Encrypted,
KmsKeyId, ThroughputMode, ProvisionedThroughputInMibps, Tags)
[required] A string of up to 64 ASCII characters. Amazon EFS uses this to ensure idempotent creation.
The performance mode of the file system. We recommend generalPurpose
performance mode for most file systems. File systems using the maxIO
performance mode can scale to higher levels of aggregate throughput and
operations per second with a tradeoff of slightly higher latencies for
most file operations. The performance mode can\'t be changed after the
file system has been created.
A Boolean value that, if true, creates an encrypted file system. When
creating an encrypted file system, you have the option of specifying
CreateFileSystemRequest\$KmsKeyId for an existing AWS Key Management
Service (AWS KMS) customer master key (CMK). If you don\'t specify a
CMK, then the default CMK for Amazon EFS, /aws/elasticfilesystem
, is
used to protect the encrypted file system.
The ID of the AWS KMS CMK to be used to protect the encrypted file system. This parameter is only required if you want to use a nondefault CMK. If this parameter is not specified, the default CMK for Amazon EFS is used. This ID can be in one of the following formats:
Key ID - A unique identifier of the key, for example
1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab
.
ARN - An Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the key, for example
arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:111122223333:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab
.
Key alias - A previously created display name for a key, for example
alias/projectKey1
.
Key alias ARN - An ARN for a key alias, for example
arn:aws:kms:us-west-2:444455556666:alias/projectKey1
.
If KmsKeyId
is specified, the CreateFileSystemRequest\$Encrypted
parameter must be set to true.
The throughput mode for the file system to be created. There are two
throughput modes to choose from for your file system: bursting
and
provisioned
. If you set ThroughputMode
to provisioned
, you must
also set a value for ProvisionedThroughPutInMibps
. You can decrease
your file system\'s throughput in Provisioned Throughput mode or change
between the throughput modes as long as it's been more than 24 hours
since the last decrease or throughput mode change. For more, see
Specifying Throughput with Provisioned Mode
in the Amazon EFS User Guide.
The throughput, measured in MiB/s, that you want to provision for a file
system that you\'re creating. Valid values are 1-1024. Required if
ThroughputMode
is set to provisioned
. The upper limit for throughput
is 1024 MiB/s. You can get this limit increased by contacting AWS
Support. For more information, see Amazon EFS Limits That You Can Increase
in the Amazon EFS User Guide.
A value that specifies to create one or more tags associated with the
file system. Each tag is a user-defined key-value pair. Name your file
system on creation by including a "Key":"Name","Value":"\{value\}"
key-value pair.
svc$create_file_system( CreationToken = "string", PerformanceMode = "generalPurpose"|"maxIO", Encrypted = TRUE|FALSE, KmsKeyId = "string", ThroughputMode = "bursting"|"provisioned", ProvisionedThroughputInMibps = 123.0, Tags = list( list( Key = "string", Value = "string" ) ) )
Creates a new, empty file system. The file system will have an
Amazon EFS assigned ID, and an initial lifecycle state creating
.
Returns with the description of the created file system.
Otherwise, this operation returns a FileSystemAlreadyExists
error with
the ID of the existing file system.
For basic use cases, you can use a randomly generated UUID for the creation token.
The idempotent operation allows you to retry a CreateFileSystem
call
without risk of creating an extra file system. This can happen when an
initial call fails in a way that leaves it uncertain whether or not a
file system was actually created. An example might be that a transport
level timeout occurred or your connection was reset. As long as you use
the same creation token, if the initial call had succeeded in creating a
file system, the client can learn of its existence from the
FileSystemAlreadyExists
error.
The CreateFileSystem
call returns while the file system\'s lifecycle
state is still creating
. You can check the file system creation status
by calling the DescribeFileSystems operation, which among other things
returns the file system state.
This operation also takes an optional PerformanceMode
parameter that
you choose for your file system. We recommend generalPurpose
performance mode for most file systems. File systems using the maxIO
performance mode can scale to higher levels of aggregate throughput and
operations per second with a tradeoff of slightly higher latencies for
most file operations. The performance mode can\'t be changed after the
file system has been created. For more information, see Amazon EFS: Performance Modes.
After the file system is fully created, Amazon EFS sets its lifecycle
state to available
, at which point you can create one or more mount
targets for the file system in your VPC. For more information, see
CreateMountTarget. You mount your Amazon EFS file system on an EC2
instances in your VPC by using the mount target. For more information,
see Amazon EFS: How it Works.
This operation requires permissions for the
elasticfilesystem:CreateFileSystem
action.
