1. Creating Amazon EBS Volumes and Snapshots
   

2. Creating an Amazon EBS Volume
   

   To use Amazon EBS, you first create a volume that can be attached to any Amazon EC2 instance within the same Availability Zone. This example creates an 800 GiB Amazon EBS volume.

   To create an Amazon EBS volume
   

   1. Enter the following command.

      PROMPT> ec2-create-volume –size 800 –zone us-east-1a
      

      Amazon EBS returns information about the volume similar to the following example.

      VOLUME vol-4d826724 800 us-east-1a available 2008-02-14T00:00:00+0000
      

   2. To check whether the volume is ready, use the following command.

      PROMPT> ec2-describe-volumes vol-4d826724
      

      Amazon EBS returns information about the volume similar to the following example.

      VOLUME vol-4d826724 800 us-east-1a available 2008-07-29T08:49:25+0000
      

3. Attaching the Volume to an Instance

Using Call Forwarding, you can redirect all incoming calls to another phone number (local or North American phone number, but not international). You will still be able to make outgoing calls on your phone, but incoming calls will go to the number you indicate.

Call-forwarded minutes are considered part of your airtime as defined by your rate plan. You can forward up to 3,000 minutes of incoming calls per month. Additional minutes are subject to a fee.

If you forward your calls to a number outside of your local calling area, long distance charges are applicable; however, if your plan includes long distance within Canada or the US, these minutes count against your long distance allotment.
