Monitoring volumes - FSx for ONTAP

You can see the volumes that are currently on your file system using the Amazon FSx console, the AWS CLI, and the Amazon FSx API and SDKs.

To monitor the volumes on your file system:
  • Using the console – Choose a file system to view the File systems detail page. Choose the Volumes tab to list all the volumes on the file system, and then choose the volume you want to view.

  • Using the CLI or API – Use the describe-volumes CLI command or the DescribeVolumes API operation.

    $ aws fsx describe-volumes { "Volumes": [ { "CreationTime": "2024-03-04T20:17:44+00:00", "FileSystemId": "fs-abcdef0123a0bb087", "Lifecycle": "CREATED", "Name": "SVM8_ext_root", "OntapConfiguration": { "FlexCacheEndpointType": "NONE", "JunctionPath": "/", "SecurityStyle": "NTFS", "SizeInMegabytes": 1024, "StorageEfficiencyEnabled": false, "StorageVirtualMachineId": "svm-01234567890abcdef", "StorageVirtualMachineRoot": true, "TieringPolicy": { "Name": "NONE" }, "UUID": "42ce3de0-da64-11ee-a22d-7f7cdfb8d381", "OntapVolumeType": "RW", "SnapshotPolicy": "default", "CopyTagsToBackups": false, "VolumeStyle": "FLEXVOL", "AggregateConfiguration": { "Aggregates": [ "aggr1" ] }, "SizeInBytes": 1073741824 }, "ResourceARN": "arn:aws:fsx:us-east-2:111122223333:volume/fs-abcdef0123a0bb087/fsvol-abcdef0123456789a", "VolumeId": "fsvol-abcdef0123456789a", "VolumeType": "ONTAP" } ] }
