Monitoring provisioned SSD IOPS updates

After you update the amount of provisioned SSD IOPs for your file system, you can monitor the progress of SSD IOPS update using the Amazon FSx console, the AWS CLI, and the API, as described in the following procedures.

Monitoring updates in the console

In the Updates tab in the File system details window, you can view the 10 most recent updates for each update type.

For provisioned SSD IOPS updates, you can view the following information.

Update type

Possible values are IOPS Mode and SSD IOPS.

Target value

The desired value to update the file system's IOPS mode and SSD IOPS to.

Status

The current status of the update. For SSD IOPS updates, the possible values are as follows:

  • Pending – Amazon FSx has received the update request, but has not started processing it.

  • In progress – Amazon FSx is processing the update request.

  • Updated optimizing – The new IOPS level is available for your workload's write operations. Your update enters an Updated optimizing state, which typically lasts a few hours, during which your workload's read operations have IOPS performance between the previous level and the new level. After your update action is complete, your new IOPS level is available for both reads and writes.

  • Completed – The SSD IOPS update completed successfully.

  • Failed – The SSD IOPS update failed. Choose the question mark (?) to see details on why the storage update failed.

Progress %

Displays the progress of the storage optimization process as percent complete.

Request time

The time that Amazon FSx received the update action request.

Monitoring updates with the AWS CLI and API

You can view and monitor file system SSD IOPS update requests using the describe-file-systems AWS CLI command and the DescribeFileSystems API action. The AdministrativeActions array lists the 10 most recent update actions for each administrative action type. When you increase a file system's SSD IOPS, two AdministrativeActions are generated: a FILE_SYSTEM_UPDATE and an IOPS_OPTIMIZATION action.
