2018/06/11 - AWS Storage Gateway - 6 updated api methods
Changes AWS Storage Gateway now enables you to create cached volumes and tapes with AWS KMS support.
{'KMSEncrypted': 'boolean', 'KMSKey': 'string'}
Creates a cached volume on a specified cached volume gateway. This operation is only supported in the cached volume gateway type.
Note
Cache storage must be allocated to the gateway before you can create a cached volume. Use the AddCache operation to add cache storage to a gateway.
In the request, you must specify the gateway, size of the volume in bytes, the iSCSI target name, an IP address on which to expose the target, and a unique client token. In response, the gateway creates the volume and returns information about it. This information includes the volume Amazon Resource Name (ARN), its size, and the iSCSI target ARN that initiators can use to connect to the volume target.
Optionally, you can provide the ARN for an existing volume as the SourceVolumeARN for this cached volume, which creates an exact copy of the existing volume’s latest recovery point. The VolumeSizeInBytes value must be equal to or larger than the size of the copied volume, in bytes.

{'KMSEncrypted': 'boolean', 'KMSKey': 'string'}
Creates a virtual tape by using your own barcode. You write data to the virtual tape and then archive the tape. A barcode is unique and can not be reused if it has already been used on a tape . This applies to barcodes used on deleted tapes. This operation is only supported in the tape gateway type.
Note
Cache storage must be allocated to the gateway before you can create a virtual tape. Use the AddCache operation to add cache storage to a gateway.
