Correct EBS volumes attached to stopped instances

Overview

EBS volumes attached to stopped instances still incur costs even though they may not be used; these should be reviewed and either detached from the stopped instance or deleted.

This pipeline allows you to specify a single EBS volume and then either send a notification or attempt to perform a predefined corrective action.

Whilst it is possible to utilise this pipeline standalone, it is usually called from the correct_ebs_volumes_attached_to_stopped_instances pipeline.

Run the pipeline

To run this pipeline from your terminal:

flowpipe pipeline run aws_thrifty.pipeline.correct_one_ebs_volume_attached_to_stopped_instance \
--arg 'title=<string>' \
--arg 'volume_id=<string>' \
--arg 'region=<string>' \
--arg 'cred=<string>'

Use this pipeline

To call this pipeline from your pipeline, use a step:

step "pipeline" "step_name" {
pipeline = aws_thrifty.pipeline.correct_one_ebs_volume_attached_to_stopped_instance
args = {
title = <string>
volume_id = <string>
region = <string>
cred = <string>
}
}
