createInstancesFromSnapshot method

Future<CreateInstancesFromSnapshotResult> createInstancesFromSnapshot({
  1. required String availabilityZone,
  2. required String bundleId,
  3. required List<String> instanceNames,
  4. List<AddOnRequest>? addOns,
  5. Map<String, List<DiskMap>>? attachedDiskMapping,
  6. String? instanceSnapshotName,
  7. String? keyPairName,
  8. String? restoreDate,
  9. String? sourceInstanceName,
  10. List<Tag>? tags,
  11. bool? useLatestRestorableAutoSnapshot,
  12. String? userData,
})

Creates one or more new instances from a manual or automatic snapshot of an instance.

The create instances from snapshot operation supports tag-based access control via request tags and resource tags applied to the resource identified by instance snapshot name. For more information, see the Lightsail Dev Guide.

May throw ServiceException. May throw InvalidInputException. May throw NotFoundException. May throw OperationFailureException. May throw AccessDeniedException. May throw AccountSetupInProgressException. May throw UnauthenticatedException.

Parameter availabilityZone : The Availability Zone where you want to create your instances. Use the following formatting: us-east-2a (case sensitive). You can get a list of Availability Zones by using the get regions operation. Be sure to add the include Availability Zones parameter to your request.

Parameter bundleId : The bundle of specification information for your virtual private server (or instance), including the pricing plan (e.g., micro_1_0).

Parameter instanceNames : The names for your new instances.

Parameter addOns : An array of objects representing the add-ons to enable for the new instance.

Parameter attachedDiskMapping : An object containing information about one or more disk mappings.

Parameter instanceSnapshotName : The name of the instance snapshot on which you are basing your new instances. Use the get instance snapshots operation to return information about your existing snapshots.

Constraint:

  • This parameter cannot be defined together with the source instance name parameter. The instance snapshot name and source instance name parameters are mutually exclusive.

Parameter keyPairName : The name for your key pair.

Parameter restoreDate : The date of the automatic snapshot to use for the new instance. Use the get auto snapshots operation to identify the dates of the available automatic snapshots.

Constraints:

  • Must be specified in YYYY-MM-DD format.
  • This parameter cannot be defined together with the use latest restorable auto snapshot parameter. The restore date and use latest restorable auto snapshot parameters are mutually exclusive.
  • Define this parameter only when creating a new instance from an automatic snapshot. For more information, see the Lightsail Dev Guide.

Parameter sourceInstanceName : The name of the source instance from which the source automatic snapshot was created.

Constraints:

  • This parameter cannot be defined together with the instance snapshot name parameter. The source instance name and instance snapshot name parameters are mutually exclusive.
  • Define this parameter only when creating a new instance from an automatic snapshot. For more information, see the Lightsail Dev Guide.

Parameter tags : The tag keys and optional values to add to the resource during create.

Use the TagResource action to tag a resource after it's created.

Parameter useLatestRestorableAutoSnapshot : A Boolean value to indicate whether to use the latest available automatic snapshot.

Constraints:

  • This parameter cannot be defined together with the restore date parameter. The use latest restorable auto snapshot and restore date parameters are mutually exclusive.
  • Define this parameter only when creating a new instance from an automatic snapshot. For more information, see the Lightsail Dev Guide.

Parameter userData : You can create a launch script that configures a server with additional user data. For example, apt-get -y update.
