volume Initialization Rate
Parameters
Specifies the Amazon EBS Provisioned Rate for Volume Initialization (volume initialization rate), in MiB/s, at which to download the snapshot blocks from Amazon S3 to the volume. This is also known as volume initialization . Specifying a volume initialization rate ensures that the volume is initialized at a predictable and consistent rate after creation. This parameter is supported only for volumes created from snapshots. Omit this parameter if:
You want to create the volume using fast snapshot restore. You must specify a snapshot that is enabled for fast snapshot restore. In this case, the volume is fully initialized at creation.
If you specify a snapshot that is enabled for fast snapshot restore and a volume initialization rate, the volume will be initialized at the specified rate instead of fast snapshot restore.
You want to create a volume that is initialized at the default rate. For more information, see Initialize Amazon EBS volumes in the Amazon EC2 User Guide . Valid range: 100 - 300 MiB/s
