2022/10/27 - Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud - 2 updated api methods
Changes Feature supports the replacement of instance root volume using an updated AMI without requiring customers to stop their instance.
{'DeleteReplacedRootVolume': 'boolean', 'ImageId': 'string'}
Response {'ReplaceRootVolumeTask': {'DeleteReplacedRootVolume': 'boolean',
'ImageId': 'string',
'SnapshotId': 'string'}}
Replaces the EBS-backed root volume for a running instance with a new volume that is restored to the original root volume's launch state, that is restored to a specific snapshot taken from the original root volume, or that is restored from an AMI that has the same key characteristics as that of the instance.
For more information, see Replace a root volume in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .

string
[REQUIRED]
The ID of the instance for which to replace the root volume.
string
The ID of the snapshot from which to restore the replacement root volume. The specified snapshot must be a snapshot that you previously created from the original root volume.
If you want to restore the replacement root volume to the initial launch state, or if you want to restore the replacement root volume from an AMI, omit this parameter.
string
Unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. If you do not specify a client token, a randomly generated token is used for the request to ensure idempotency. For more information, see Ensuring idempotency .
This field is autopopulated if not provided.
boolean
Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation . Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation .
list
The tags to apply to the root volume replacement task.
(dict) --
The tags to apply to a resource when the resource is being created.
Note
The Valid Values lists all the resource types that can be tagged. However, the action you're using might not support tagging all of these resource types. If you try to tag a resource type that is unsupported for the action you're using, you'll get an error.
ResourceType (string) --
The type of resource to tag on creation.
Tags (list) --
The tags to apply to the resource.
(dict) --
Describes a tag.
Key (string) --
The key of the tag.
Constraints: Tag keys are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 127 Unicode characters. May not begin with aws: .
Value (string) --
The value of the tag.
Constraints: Tag values are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 256 Unicode characters.
string
The ID of the AMI to use to restore the root volume. The specified AMI must have the same product code, billing information, architecture type, and virtualization type as that of the instance.
If you want to restore the replacement volume from a specific snapshot, or if you want to restore it to its launch state, omit this parameter.
boolean
Indicates whether to automatically delete the original root volume after the root volume replacement task completes. To delete the original root volume, specify true . If you choose to keep the original root volume after the replacement task completes, you must manually delete it when you no longer need it.

list
Filter to use:
instance-id - The ID of the instance for which the root volume replacement task was created.
(dict) --
A filter name and value pair that is used to return a more specific list of results from a describe operation. Filters can be used to match a set of resources by specific criteria, such as tags, attributes, or IDs.
If you specify multiple filters, the filters are joined with an AND , and the request returns only results that match all of the specified filters.
Name (string) --
The name of the filter. Filter names are case-sensitive.
Values (list) --
