Creates a new, empty Amazon FSx file system. You can create the following supported Amazon FSx file systems using the CreateFileSystem
API operation:
Amazon FSx for Lustre
Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP
Amazon FSx for OpenZFS
Amazon FSx for Windows File Server
This operation requires a client request token in the request that Amazon FSx uses to ensure idempotent creation. This means that calling the operation multiple times with the same client request token has no effect. By using the idempotent operation, you can retry a CreateFileSystem
operation without the risk of creating an extra file system. This approach can be useful when an initial call fails in a way that makes it unclear whether a file system was created. Examples are if a transport level timeout occurred, or your connection was reset. If you use the same client request token and the initial call created a file system, the client receives success as long as the parameters are the same.
If a file system with the specified client request token exists and the parameters match, CreateFileSystem
returns the description of the existing file system. If a file system with the specified client request token exists and the parameters don't match, this call returns IncompatibleParameterError
. If a file system with the specified client request token doesn't exist, CreateFileSystem
does the following:
Creates a new, empty Amazon FSx file system with an assigned ID, and an initial lifecycle state of CREATING
.
Returns the description of the file system in JSON format.
The CreateFileSystem
call returns while the file system's lifecycle state is still CREATING
. You can check the file-system creation status by calling the DescribeFileSystems operation, which returns the file system state along with other information.

The path provided for data repository export isn't valid.
HTTP Status Code: 400
The path provided for data repository import isn't valid.
HTTP Status Code: 400
One or more network settings specified in the request are invalid.
