<p>I successfully deployed Kubernetes on AWS using "getting started on AWS ec2 guide" (<a href="http://kubernetes.io/v1.0/docs/getting-started-guides/aws.html" rel="nofollow">http://kubernetes.io/v1.0/docs/getting-started-guides/aws.html</a>), but the disk size of all the minions (kubernetes hosts) is 8gb.  I would like to increase the disk size, but I haven't found a way to do it.</p>

<p>I can change the VM size by setting MINION_SIZE (e.g. export MINION_SIZE=m3.medium) prior to installing, but the disk size is still 8gb.</p>

<p>From the Kubernetes install instructions for other cloud providers there's an option to set MINION_DISK_SIZE to set the disk size.  I tried that with AWS ec2 installation, and the variable is ignored.</p>

<p>I also poked around the config files, but I didn't see anything obvious.</p>

<p>Any suggestions on how to set the disk size for minions when installing Kubernetes on AWS ec2?</p>

<p>I recently stumbled upon the same issue. Have a look at BLOCK_DEVICE_MAPPINGS in <code>kubernetes/cluster/aws/util.sh</code>. You can modify it to have something more appropriate for a EBS-only minion. </p>

<p>For example:</p>

<pre><code>[{"DeviceName":"/dev/sda1","Ebs":{"VolumeSize":80}}]
</code></pre>
