Scaleway Volumes API
A volume is where you store your data inside your Instance. Itappears as a block device on Linux that you can use to createa filesystem and mount it.The Instance API only supports local (`l_ssd`) and `scratch` volume types.Block storage volumes can also be attached to Instances, these volumes aremanaged by the SBS API (https://www.scaleway.com/en/developers/api/block/).Minimum and maximum volume sizes for each volume types can be queriedfrom the zone `/products/volumes` API endpoint. _I.e_ for: - `fr-par-1` use https://api.scaleway.com/instance/v1/zones/fr-par-1/products/volumes - `nl-ams-1` use https://api.scaleway.com/instance/v1/zones/nl-ams-1/products/volumesEach type of volume is also subject to a global quota for the sum of all thevolumes. This quota depends of the level of support and may bechanged on demand.When using multiple block devices, it's advised to mount them byusing their UUID instead of their device name. A device name issubject to change depending on the volumes order. Block devicesUUIDs can be found in `/dev/disk/by-id/`.
