Create a volume

Open Block Storage

In the portal sidebar, click Block Storage under Infrastructure.

If you have no volumes yet, the page shows a No block volumes yet empty state with an + Add Volume button. Otherwise, click + Add Volume in the top right.

Choose a storage type

Choose a storage location

Select a Storage Location from the dropdown (e.g. AMR 1).

Set the storage size

Use the slider, the quick-pick buttons, or Custom GB to enter an exact value:

The summary bar updates as you change the size — e.g. 10 GB · NVMe · AMR 1.

Set a volume label

Enter a Volume Label — this is the display name for the volume in the portal and the basis for the auto-generated internal name.

• Lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only
• Example: my-db-volume, redis-data, web-uploads

Create the volume

Click + Add Volume. A toast confirms Volume “{label}” is being created, then a Volume Created dialog appears with two actions:

• Open Volume Details — go straight to the volume’s detail page.
• Done — return to the volume list.

The volume appears in the list with status Ready within a few seconds.
