1
00:00:06,733 --> 00:00:08,423
- Now let's review a demo,

2
00:00:08,423 --> 00:00:13,231
of mounting an EBS volume,
to a Window's instance.

3
00:00:13,231 --> 00:00:17,013
Fromm the EC2 dashboard
in the AWS console,

4
00:00:17,013 --> 00:00:20,277
I'm gonna go down here to our volumes,

5
00:00:20,277 --> 00:00:21,776
you can see here a couple of volumes that

6
00:00:21,776 --> 00:00:23,359
we created earlier,

7
00:00:24,752 --> 00:00:27,131
I'm gonna choose one of
these, the data volume,

8
00:00:27,131 --> 00:00:29,183
and the first thing we need to do is

9
00:00:29,183 --> 00:00:30,913
attach it to the instance.

10
00:00:30,913 --> 00:00:33,913
So I'm going to click Attach Volume,

11
00:00:35,707 --> 00:00:37,834
I'm going to click here
and it will automatically

12
00:00:37,834 --> 00:00:41,318
give us the ability to
choose which instances,

13
00:00:41,318 --> 00:00:43,804
right now we only have the
Windows server running,

14
00:00:43,804 --> 00:00:46,291
I'm gonna click that
one, I'm gonna leave this

15
00:00:46,291 --> 00:00:50,208
as XVDF, and of course
we could go through XVDP

16
00:00:51,389 --> 00:00:53,082
if we wanted to.

17
00:00:53,082 --> 00:00:54,734
So I'm just gonna leave that as it is,

18
00:00:54,734 --> 00:00:59,251
and I'm gonna click Attach,
and you can see that

19
00:00:59,251 --> 00:01:03,418
now our volume goes from an
available state to In Use.

20
00:01:04,711 --> 00:01:06,671
So that means that it's
attached, and you can see here

21
00:01:06,671 --> 00:01:09,998
that it shows the attachment information

22
00:01:09,998 --> 00:01:12,482
as being attached to our Windows server,

23
00:01:12,482 --> 00:01:15,565
and its still in the attaching state.

24
00:01:17,002 --> 00:01:19,239
So while that attaches, I'm gonna go ahead

25
00:01:19,239 --> 00:01:21,821
and open another RDP session,

26
00:01:21,821 --> 00:01:24,321
into our Windows EC2 instance,

27
00:01:25,867 --> 00:01:28,861
so now that we're here, we
have our RDP session and

28
00:01:28,861 --> 00:01:33,258
open to our Windows server,
I'm going to go into

29
00:01:33,258 --> 00:01:34,841
the server manager,

30
00:01:40,228 --> 00:01:44,395
and I'm going to go to File
and Storage Devices, Disks,

31
00:01:46,256 --> 00:01:49,748
you can see that we
have our 100 gig volume,

32
00:01:49,748 --> 00:01:52,920
that we just attached, I'm
going to right click on that

33
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:53,753
one and say,

34
00:01:53,753 --> 00:01:55,086
"Bring on line",

35
00:01:57,131 --> 00:01:57,964
I'm gonna say,

36
00:01:57,964 --> 00:02:00,762
"Yes, I'm sure that I wanna do that"

37
00:02:00,762 --> 00:02:03,937
Once its online, I'm
going to initialize that,

38
00:02:03,937 --> 00:02:06,078
and yes, I know that its
going to erase the data,

39
00:02:06,078 --> 00:02:08,469
but there's nothing on there
its a brand new device,

40
00:02:08,469 --> 00:02:09,302
So, yes,

41
00:02:12,445 --> 00:02:13,968
And there we go.

42
00:02:13,968 --> 00:02:16,397
Now that we have that device available,

43
00:02:16,397 --> 00:02:18,045
we can do with it as we need do.

44
00:02:18,045 --> 00:02:20,988
We can format it, we can
leverage it for storage,

45
00:02:20,988 --> 00:02:24,925
whatever, so that is
mounting an EBS volume

46
00:02:24,925 --> 00:02:26,758
to a Windows instance.
