Create an EVS Disk

Updated on 2022-12-20 GMT+08:00

Scenarios

EVS disks can be used as system disks or data disks for servers.

  • System disks can only be created together with servers and are automatically attached.
  • A system disk can have a maximum of 1,024 GiB, and a data disk 32,768 GiB.
  • Data disks that created together with servers are automatically attached.
  • After servers are created, any data disks added on the cloud server console are automatically attached.
  • After servers are created, any data disks added on the EVS console need to be manually attached.

This section describes how to separately create disks on the EVS console.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Under Storage, click Elastic Volume Service.

    The disk list page is displayed.

  3. Click Create Disk.
  4. Configure basic disk information according to Table 1.

    Table 1 Disk parameters

    Parameter

    Sub-Parameter

    Description

    Example Value

    Region

    -

    Mandatory

    Resources are region-specific and cannot be used across regions through internal network connections. For low network latency and quick resource access, select the nearest region.

    -

    AZ

    -

    Mandatory

    The availability zone (AZ) where you want to create the disk.

    NOTE:
    • Disks can only be attached to the servers in the same AZ.
    • The AZ of a disk cannot be changed after the disk has been created.

    -

    Disk Specifications

    Disk Type

    Mandatory

    The available disk types are as follows:

    • High I/O
    • Ultra-high I/O
    NOTE:

    When a disk is created from a snapshot, the disk type of the new disk will be consistent with that of the snapshot's source disk.

    Ultra-high I/O

    Disk Size (GiB)

    Mandatory

    The disk size. Only data disks can be created on the current page, and the disk size ranges from 10 GiB to 32,768 GiB.

    NOTE:
    • When you use a backup to create a disk, the disk capacity must be greater than or equal to the backup size. In the condition that you do not specify the disk capacity, if the backup size is smaller than 10 GiB, the default capacity 10 GiB will be used as the disk capacity; if the backup size is greater than 10 GiB, the disk capacity will be consistent with the backup size.
    • When you use a snapshot to create a disk, the disk capacity must be greater than or equal to the snapshot size. In the condition that you do not specify the disk capacity, if the snapshot size is smaller than 10 GiB, the default capacity 10 GiB will be used as the disk capacity; if the snapshot size is greater than 10 GiB, the disk capacity will be consistent with the snapshot size.

    100 GiB

    Create from
    • Backup
    • Snapshot
    • Image
    Optional
    • If you choose Create from Backup, the backup data is used to create the disk.

      Click Create from and choose Backup. On the displayed page, select the target backup and click OK.

      NOTE:
      • One backup cannot be used for concurrent disk creation operations at the same time. For example, if you are creating disk A from a backup, this backup can be used to create another disk only after disk A has been created.
      • If a disk is created from a backup of a system disk, the new disk can be used as a data disk only.
    • If you choose Create from Snapshot, the snapshot data is used to create the disk.

      Click Create from and choose Snapshot. On the displayed page, select the target snapshot and click OK.

      NOTE:
      • The disk type of the new disk is the same as that of the snapshot's source disk.
      • The device type of the new disk is the same as that of the snapshot's source disk.
      • The encryption attribute of the new disk is the same as that of the snapshot's source disk.

      For details about the disk creation from snapshots, see Creating an EVS Disk from a Snapshot.

    • If you choose Create from Image, the image data is used to create the disk.

      Click Create from and choose Image. On the displayed page, select the target image and click OK.

      NOTE:
      • The device type of the new disk is the same as that of the image's source disk.
    • Create from Backup: autobackup-001
    • Create from Snapshot: snapshot-001

    More

    Advanced Settings
    • Share
    • SCSI

    Optional

    • Share

      If you select Share, a shared disk is created. A shared disk can be attached to up to 16 servers. If you do not select Share, a non-shared disk is created, and the disk can be attached to one server only.

      If you select both SCSI and Share, a shared SCSI disk is created.

      NOTE:

      The sharing attribute of a disk cannot be changed after the disk has been created.

      For details about shared EVS disks, see Managing Shared EVS Disks.

    • SCSI

      If you select SCSI, a SCSI disk is created. Such disks allow the server OS to directly access the underlying storage media and send SCSI commands to the disks. If you do not select SCSI, a VBD disk is created. That said, the disk device type is VBD, the default device type.

      NOTE:

      The device type of a disk cannot be changed after the disk has been created.

      For details about the ECS types, OSs, and ECS software supported by SCSI EVS disks, see Device Types and Usage Instructions.

    -

    Tag

    Optional

    During the EVS disk creation, you can tag the EVS resources. Tags identify cloud resources for purposes of easy categorization and quick search.

    A tag is composed of a key-value pair.
    • Key: Mandatory if the disk is going to be tagged
    • Value: Optional if the disk is going to be tagged
    NOTE:
    • A maximum of 10 tags can be added for an EVS disk.
    • Tag keys of the same EVS disk must be unique.

    For details about tags, see the Tag Management Service User Guide.

    -

    Enterprise Project

    -

    Mandatory

    When creating EVS disks, you can add the disks to an existing enterprise project.

    An enterprise project facilitates project-level management and grouping of cloud resources and users. The default project is default.

    default

    Disk Name

    -

    Mandatory

    • If you create disks individually, this parameter value is used as the actual disk name.

      The name can contain a maximum of 64 characters.

    • If you create disks in a batch, this parameter value is used as the prefix of disk names, and one disk name will be composed of this parameter value and a four-digit number.

      The name can contain a maximum of 59 characters.

    For example, if you create two disks and set volume for Disk Name, the EVS disk names will be volume-0001 and volume-0002.

    Quantity

    -

    Optional

    The number of disks to be created. The default value is set to 1, which means only one disk is created. Currently, you can create up to 100 disks at a time.

    NOTE:
    • If the disk is created from a backup, batch creation is not possible, and this parameter must be set to 1.
    • If the disk is created from a snapshot, batch creation is not possible, and this parameter must be set to 1.

    1

  5. Click Next.
  6. On the Details page, check the disk details.

    • If you do not need to modify the specifications, click Submit.
    • If you need to modify the specifications, click Previous.

  7. Go back to the disk list page and view the disk status.

    When the disk status changes to Available, the disk is successfully created.
