» rightscale_volume_snapshot

Use this data source to locate and extract info about an existing volume snapshot to pass to other rightscale resources.

Filter block is optional - ommitting it will result in the first available volume snapshot in a given cloud.

» Example Usage 1: Basic configuration of a volume snapshot data source

data "rightscale_volume_snapshot" "mysql_master" {
   filter {
     name = "mysql_master"
   }
   cloud_href = "${data.rightscale_cloud.ec2_us_oregon.href}"
 }

output "snapshot name" {
  value = "${data.rightscale_volume_snapshot.mysql_master.name}"
}

output "snapshot href" {
  value = "${data.rightscale_volume_snapshot.mysql_master.href}"
}

data "rightscale_cloud" "ec2_us_oregon" {
  filter {
    name = "EC2 us-west-2"
    cloud_type = "amazon"
  }
}
