Let's say there is a single disk Disk 0
at an Amazon EC2 instance Instance1
with the corresponding EBS volume having the device-name /dev/sd1
. Let's say this disk maps to C-drive on the VM.
Now can we create a new EBS volume attach it to Instance1
with the same device-name /dev/sd1
?
If this is possible, does it mean, after the volume is attached, we can go ahead and extend the existing C-drive at Instance1
, without having to go through the process of detaching it first, creating a snapshot etc.?
