For these tasks, you should refer to, and follow, relevant instructions in the official Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide (Amazon Web Services, n.d.-k), available in this week’s resources.
TASKS: Creating an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) Volume and demonstrating its persistent nature.
1. Log on to AWS Educate using your AWS educate starter account, and click AWS Console button.
2. Launch a new instance using the Amazon EC2 console, in your default Region/Availability Zone.
3. Select the Amazon Linux AMI.
4. Choose the t2. medium instance type.
5. Launch the instance in the default VPC.
6. Assign the instance a public IP address (of your choice)
7. Add an Amazon EBS volume of size 1 GB to the existing root volume, following steps provided in the user guide.
8. Add a tag to the instance of Key: Name, Value: ITEC6210-YourName, and use the Security Group carried last week.
9. Launch the instance, and when prompted for a key pair, create a new public-private key pair—ITEC6210Key-YourName-wk3.
10. Go to the Amazon EBS console, find the EBS volume just created, and give it the name ebs_wk3_YourName.
11. While within the EBS console, review the functionality availability for working with snapshots and encrypting EBS volumes.
12. Terminate the instance that was created using the Amazon EC2 console.
13. Check the Amazon EBS console once again. Observe that the root volume has been deleted (as it was set by the system to “delete on terminate”). However, the EBS volume is still visible, confirming that it persists beyond the lifetime of the instance, unless EIS (Instance) stores that are ephemeral or transient in nature.
14. Delete the EBS volume.
15. Log out of AWS.
