Modifies the attributes of one or more block storage devices, including their names, descriptions, and whether to release the devices along with their associated instances.

Description

  • When you call this operation to modify the attributes of a disk, if you set DeleteWithInstance to false and the instance to which the disk is attached is locked for security reasons, the DeleteWithInstance settings of the disk are ignored and the disk will be released along with the instance. If "LockReason" : "security" is displayed in the response when you query the information of an instance, the instance is locked for security reasons.
  • You can use the DiskIds.N parameter to specify multiple block storage devices so that you can modify the attributes of these devices at a time, including their names, descriptions, and whether to release the devices along with their associated instances.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.

Request parameters

Parameter Type Required Example Description
Action String Yes ModifyDiskAttribute

The operation that you want to perform. Set the value to ModifyDiskAttribute.

DiskId String No d-bp1famypsnar20bv****

The ID of the disk.

Note DiskId or DiskIds.N are mutually exclusive. Specify one of them based on your needs.
DiskName String No MyDiskName

The name of the disk. The name must be 2 to 128 characters in length. It must start with a letter and cannot start with http:// or https://. It can contain letters, digits, colons (:), underscores (_), and hyphens (-).

The description of the disk. The description must be 2 to 256 characters in length and cannot start with http:// or https://.

DeleteWithInstance Boolean No false

  • true: enables the automatic snapshot policy feature for the cloud disk.
  • false: disables the automatic snapshot policy feature for the cloud disk.

This parameter is empty by default, which indicates that the current value remains unchanged.

Note By default, the automatic snapshot policy feature is enabled for cloud disks. You only need to associate an automatic snapshot policy with a cloud disk before you can use the policy.
RegionId String Yes cn-hangzhou

The region ID of the disk. You can call the DescribeRegions operation to query the most recent region list.

DiskIds.N String No d-bp1famypsnar20bv****

The ID of disk N. Valid values of N: 0 to 100.

Note DiskId or DiskIds.N are mutually exclusive. Specify one of them based on your needs.
BurstingEnabled Boolean No false
